Hairstylist Clayton Hawkins Reveals Olivia Colman’s Salt‑and‑Pepper Curl Routine
The Vogue piece outlines the step‑by‑step process and products behind the actress’s textured look.
By Felo News Desk · Published
Vogue reported that hairstylist Clayton Hawkins crafted Olivia Colman’s “wild and sexy” salt‑and‑pepper curls for the upcoming fantasy film Wicker on October 15, 2026.
What happened
Hawkins first treated Colman’s hair with Amika Frizz‑Me‑Not Treatment, then dried it using an AirLight Pro Hair Dryer. He applied a .5‑inch curling iron, wrapping strands in random directions to achieve a loose, textured finish. A light dusting of Sexy Hair Powder added root volume, followed by gentle back‑combing with a wide‑tooth comb. Finally, he sprayed a few drops of Dove 10‑in‑1 Serum, which he described as “the best and lightest hair oil, and it’s cheap AF from the drugstore.”
What was said
Hawkins told Vogue, “She has gorgeous natural curls that I played up this week,” and later added, “Olivia is hilarious, beautiful and a joy to be around. I can’t wait to see this sexy bonkers movie!” He also joked about the rapid change from Colman’s May pixie cut, calling it a “medical mystery.”
How it came about
The styling coincides with promotion for Wicker, slated for release on October 30, 2026, after a buzz‑driving trailer and a one‑night‑only 4DX screening announced on October 8. Earlier Felo coverage linked the film’s meme frenzy and festival debut.
