Hair and makeup are absolutely key when it comes to bringing a character to life on screen.
Some celebs have been challenged to change up their everyday looks from shaving their head to dying their hair a totally different color. But one of the most simple solutions when you need a new hairdo in a pinch? Wearing a wig.
