In “House of the Dragon,” one of the biggest challenges on the set was making sure everyone’s wigs stayed that very specific shade of Targaryen blond.
“When blood gets in them, blood is in them.
The blood is not coming out,” said Rosalia Culora, the show’s co-hair designer.
The workaround for gory scenes, Ms. Culora said, was to designate “blood wigs” for characters and their stunt doubles, which resulted in frequent wig changes throughout the filming period.
“It was a puzzle, and hopefully with a good result, where people have got a flawless viewing and are not seeing pink wigs,” she said.
