Summary

Clayton Hawkins played with wigs instead of toys as a child, and by the time he was in high school, he had a lucrative side hustle doing prom hair for his classmates. Today, Hawkins is known for his work with clients such as Olivia Rodrigo, Jenna Ortega, and Ali Wong, in addition to his hilarious and educational #HairTok presence. This week, Hawkins explains the techniques he used to give Rodrigo her flawless Guts tour waves, how bang pieces actually work, and which Hailey Bieber look he treated with the attention to detail he can only imagine was matched by the historical researchers behind Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.
