Oh, me too. I came out of Iron Man 2 and Winter Soldier thinking that Natasha's hairstyles looked really good and apparently they're both really awful wigs? I have zero eye for stuff like this.

I'd agree with the (generalised) opinion that the WS wig was awful, but the one in IM2? Literally her best look alongside Avengers 1 wtf xD

Ayrt

Obviously I have no idea, but I remember there was a discussion right here on FS about how bad the IM2 wig was. I think it might have even been its own secret? Literally that was when I even learned that it was a wig in the first place. I genuinely thought that was her actual hair when I watched the movie.

I tend to assume the actor is wearing a wig in cases like this (not natural colour and/or extra length/volume/details like braids etc.), but even then I don't see how this one was supposedly SO bad, especially in comparison with other examples in the MCU OR in just her character lol. I think it (well, they, she wore at least three different hairstyles IIRC) looked perfectly fine, without that artificial shine a lot of them have, and quite good on her.

To be fair it's been years, maybe even during phase one of the MCU. Some of the worse offenders might not have been around yet to make the IM2 wig look better in comparison, lol.

True LOL. I guess by then, with just to films, it was the worst wig lol. Of course the other candidates were Tony, Rhodey, Pepper, Happy, Stane, Fury, Coulson... over half of those are bald(ing) guys lmao.

Personally I do find her Winter Soldier wig pretty bad. I think a stick-straight, low-volume bob like that is one of the hardest wigs to make look good on most people, because there's just nothing to distract from anything that's even slightly off about it.

Her wig in IM2...ehh. I definitely clocked it as a wig, but it didn't bother me the same way, because it was so much more styled and textured and just...it was a lot. It was very, very "2010's sexy-girl hair." If I didn't like her IM2 hair, it was because it was more "nightclub hottie" that I personally wanted for the character, not because of the fakeness of the wig.

DA

I *loved* her IM2 hair.

(Anonymous) 2023-08-09 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
It was very attractive, it just looked too obviously effortful for my taste--which made sense, to a degree, with her basically being low-key a honeypot for a lot of IM2. Though her hair is at its most intensely coiffed during the fight scene after her cover is revealed, which was definitely a style-over-narrative choice, IMO.

Her Avengers hair was my favorite; glamorous yet "effortless." It obviously wasn't remotely effortless in reality, but there was the illusion of effortlessness.

*than I wanted for the character

I liked her IM2 hair but they made her take it DOWN for a fight scene!

Realism is not what I'm looking for in that kind of movie...
