You see her disembark on the screen with her boots, her flashy clothes and above all … this fringe. Perfect. Too perfect. You may focus on the plot, it is impossible not to ask yourself: is that really her real hair?
A fringe so clear that one believes in it halfway
Impossible to miss it. As soon as she enters the scene, Morgane Alvaro displays a straight, dense, perfectly drawn fringe. And you, in front of your screen, you say to yourself: it is impossible that it is natural. And you are not necessarily wrong.
Because such a smooth fringe, without any irregularity, even after a day of spinning and interrogation, it smells like artifice. And in the world of series, small technical aids are never far away.
The mystery of the half-perruque
The secret of this perfect fringe is not just a brush and a hair dryer. The trick is on the side of an accessory well known on the shoots: the half-perruque. Less invasive than a complete wig, it is attached to the top of the head and allows you to structure a hairstyle, without completely transforming the actress’s hair.
This device makes it possible to bypass the indomitable ears, to save precious time in makeup and above all to ensure capillary continuity between the scenes. A detail that escapes the spectator … but which changes everything in the shooting routine.
The red color, signature or camouflage?
This famous intense redhead which illuminates the screen, it has become the character brand of the character. And if you wonder if this color is authentic or the fruit of a dye, know that it is an integral part of the actress’s public image since well before Hpi.
It is therefore not a choice imposed by the character. It is a color that is part of her identity, even if she has been a source of mockery in her youth. Today, she claims it and embodies it, so much so that we no longer imagine it.
A calibrated look for an extraordinary character
Nothing is left to chance in the look of Morgane Alvaro. Her hairstyle is an integral part of her personality: exuberant, assumed, sometimes confusing. Everything in her silhouette shouts anti -conformism, and her hair comes to accentuate this impression of total freedom.
But paradoxically, to give an impression of controlled chaos, it takes extreme rigor. And this is where the artifices are involved. Not to cheat, but to build a character who visually holds the road from one episode to another.
When the technique strengthens the myth
Finally, the question is no longer whether it’s her real hair or not. What matters is what this hairstyle says of the character, and how she participates in her aura. And on this, the bet is successful. Whether with an addition, a pliers or a brush stroke, this capillary look has become as cult as the character himself.
And now that you know the back of the decor, maybe you will look at this perfect bangs with a slightly more accomplice eye. Because between you and me, who has never dreamed of a brushing that holds 12 hours without moving?
