Uh\u2026YES! I\u2019d shave my head for that man! Mike wanted the ladies to be \u2018a big blonde blob,\u2019\u201d Michelle<\/strong> explained. \u201cHe wanted us to convey the look of sameness \u2013 an interchangeable trio of sorts prior to discovering the nuances of each character as the season progresses. Going blonde was wonderful creative inspiration for me but I\u2019d need an epic colorist to make those locks a reality. Enter the queen @traceycunningham1 (thanks for the intro @mslesliebibb \ud83d\ude19)\u201d<\/p>\n She added, \u201cI easily deferred to Tracey\u2019s expertise. She and her incredible assistants meticulously perfected the color over the course of a few eight hour sessions. Moreover, Tracey maintained the color and the roots the entire six months we were in Thailand, making multiple trips to keep that mane oh so Jaclyn (and oh so healthy \u2013 thank you @olaplex). I\u2019m so thankful to her, and her team, because let\u2019s be honest, blondes absolutely do have more fun.\u201d<\/p>\n New episodes of The White Lotus<\/em> air on Sunday nights at 9pm ET on HBO and are available for streaming on MAX.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n
