the exorbitant price of wigs for House of Gucci

Featured in the film House of Gucci of Ridley Scott, the singer Lady Gaga reveals herself totally transformed to play Patrizia Reggiani, one of the main roles of the feature film, who is none other than the wife of Maurizio Gucci, the grandson of the creator of the Gucci house . Tracing the events of 1995 linked to the latter’s assassination, the film features this captivating character accused of having organized the murder of her husband.

Keys to her metamorphosis, the multiple wigs that the singer wears in the film allowed her to forget her name on the screen. Hairstyles worked, imagined and produced by Frédéric Aspiras, the singer’s hairdresser and wigmaker on the film – to whom we also owe many of his surprising transformations because he has collaborated with the star since his The Monster Ball tour in 2009 – including the cost turns out to be as sultry as the character she embodies.

Lady Gaga’s wigs in House of Gucci cost 10,000 dollars

In interview with the magazine The Hollywood Reporter, the hairstylist unveiled the exorbitant price of Lady Gaga’s hair looks in the film. To recreate the allure of Patrizia Gucci from 1972 to 1997, the star’s personal hairstylist had to create no less than 10 custom wigs for the singer and “These wigs alone cost $ 10,000!” as he told the magazine (8,835.85 euros). Obviously, the advertised cost does not take into account hair products and “Exact techniques of a hairdresser from the 1970s” that Frédéric Aspiras used to style each of them. Titanic hairstyles requiring up to four to five hours of work each morning to recreate wet hair effects faithful to those obtained in the 70s, curls like we did in the 80s and XXL brushings like the 90s.

A hair transformation beyond wigs

To slip into the skin of her brunette character, the singer also changed her hair color. She abandoned her iconic platinum blonde for a brown color. A hair transformation that has also had its cost although it has not yet been revealed. Suffice to say that the twenty-five years of Patrizia Gucci’s hairstyles and the fifty-five looks that brought them to life on the screen have cost an astronomical price.
