Anya Taylor-Joy’s Sculptural Cannes Updo Is Defying Gravity

Anya taylor joy at the cannes film festival.

Anya Taylor-Joy has a fairly defined beauty look: pin-straight hair, complemented by a cat eye and blue-red lipstick. It’s a reliable formula, but the Cannes Film Festival is the time to experiment with a new beauty look—and that’s evidently what the actress plans to do. For the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga red carpet, the Dior ambassador arrived with an intricate, extension-padded updo that's a stark contrast to her standard style.

It’s no secret that Taylor-Joy’s natural hair is long. On any given day, it sits at roughly hip length. Even so, I’d bet that the star’s hairstylist, Gregory Russell, had to use pounds on pounds of extensions and at least a whole pack of bobby pins to execute the sturdy, S-shaped chignon fastened to the crown of The Queen’s Gambit lead’s head.
