Her XXL hair that has been much commented on
On many occasions, celebrities have shown that they are also human and that they suffer from beauty lapses like any of us. We have seen actresses, models, singers, influencers... with looks that have been widely commented on, either due to a poor choice of makeup or a hairstyle that did not turn out as expected. The last to do so was Angelina Jolie, who starred in these images at the premiere of her new film, Eternals, in the city of Rome (Italy). The 46-year-old American actress, director and producer caused a sensation with the spectacular Versace metallic dress, however, her fans have not forgiven her for a mistake that they have described as "disastrous". Angelina transformed her hair and got an XXL length thanks to her extensions, just like most celebrities do when they want to change their look without changing her natural hair. However, it was not a perfect result and they were too noticeable.
Seeing the stir it has caused, we have spoken with several experts who have given their opinion on this Angelina Jolie beauty lapse. "When there's so much jumping and going from mid-length to full-length, there are only two options. One would be to pre-cut her hair so it doesn't have such a straight spiky end and have the extension come together in a natural progression; or to put more number of extension strips so that it covers as much as possible and conceals", tells us María Roberts, founder of Studio25, who believes that when putting an extension the most important thing, more than placement, which is also fundamental, is "the union between the natural hair and the extension so that it is totally fused".
The same is the opinion of María Baras, from Cheska, who has been very surprised with this mishap that the actress's hair has suffered. "To leave that hair so straight, you have to work on it a lot. She has a lot of hair and it's very solid, so her hair should have been lightened up a bit or put on more extensions. Also a good trick is to give it more shape, make a longer hair wavy...". Of course, the stylist wanted to show solidarity with her colleague or colleague. "When putting extensions on very solid hair, without layers, you have to do a certain shape to integrate them. The truth is that it surprises me a bit, I don't know, there are times when we have to work very quickly or they thought to make a ponytail or a braid and then let it go at the last moment... Who knows, I defend that hairdresser!"
In the opinion of María del Carmen Ramiro, master trainer at EXTENSIONmania: "A good stylist is like a good magician, who never lets tricks show. If it shows, it's definitely not a job well done." Angelina's cut is very straight and she should have adapted by making a pre-cut to make her hair stand out and empty the tip of it, so that it integrates better. Also, one of her mistakes is that she "has only added extensions to the bottom of her nape to add length to her neck, but they haven't added enough extensions to the middle part to join her hair with the one with the extension. "The result is a very long mane but with no connection between its cut and that of the extensions," says the EXTENSIONmania expert.
The problem with Angelina's look is that "she has excessively long hair and whoever did it didn't know how to integrate it," says Eduardo Sánchez, director of Maison Eduardo Sánchez. "With such disproportionate lengths, it is difficult to integrate the extensions, because the layers would have to be very long so that they are not noticeable. In addition, it must be taken into account that the extensions, as much as they have acquired a very high quality in recent times, have a different fall. But in addition, those extensions to integrate them into such long hair, must be worked with thinning scissors and a razor so that they blend with the rest of the hair. The fact that the hair is so straight does not help either, the extensions should go shorter and play with the wave to hide them".
On the other hand, we have also spoken with Alejandro Cabanillas, from Tacha Castellana, who assures that to put extensions there are three things that are very important: "the previous diagnosis, that the professional is trained to apply them correctly and the cut". "When you wear extensions it is essential that the stylists know how to cut well to blend those extensions with natural hair because before and after placing them you have to blend and adapt the cut of the extensions with your own hair to integrate it and make it look as natural as possible" ."The advice before the placement has not been correct", is what Diego Lainz, ambassador of Termix, is clear about. "It is one of the most common mistakes made when placing hair extensions, and more so when they are clip-ons, since they are not fixed to the hair," he says. "In this case, Angelina wore a large curtain of hair that had that 'block' effect that has shocked so much. The integration of natural hair with the hair of the extensions is very important, the chosen texture, the volume... all these factors are the ones that must be taken into account and they have overlooked it", adds the Termix ambassador.
To conclude, the experts at La 29 by Noé Puigpey believe that "someone like Angelina Jolie does not have and cannot have lapses with her hair. We think that the chosen look could have initially been a medium or high updo, and that the curtain of extensions that she wears was to thicken her hair. We understand that at the last moment she did not want or would not look comfortable with the updo or ponytail and decided to wear the loose look. It is seen that it is not worked or polished, therefore more than a slip on the part of her stylist, we believe it was a last-minute decision by the actress. Without a doubt, very unwise, "they conclude.
Experts agree that it is not the best look that the actress has worn for all these years and her followers think the same, since she has received a lot of criticism. "An actress like her can't appear like that on the red carpet", "Who was in charge of doing her hair?", "Angelina's extensions going viral", "It seems that she has put them on" or "I think someone is going to be fired", are some of the messages that can be read about his choice for the premiere of Eternals.
