Tea Leoni's Hair


Perhaps this has been mentioned before, but her hair drives me crazy. It's always so messy. What gives? It looks like there is a hairpiece in the back. No one's hair is that thick.

reply

It's a wig.

I'm not sure it's a full wig or just a hairpiece, but whatever it is, can't they at least comb it once in a while. I just find it very distracting.

reply

The messy look is in. Helmet hair has not been in style for a very long time, especially among busy professional women. And, yes, my hair is at least that thick.

Agree, natural hair will change with movement and we put our fingers through it. We had too much hairspray in the 80s. I like this, even if it is sometimes modified in the back.

>> Helmet hair has not been in style for a very long time

Last time I was in the South, helmet-hair was still in down there. Lots of women (even young ones) looked like they had used a can of hairspray. It wasn't the beehives of my mother's day but those hairdos were hurricane-ready.

reply

I'm not advocating the helmet head, but I'm no fan of bed head either, especially on professional women of her stature. Good grooming never goes out of style. Her hair, real or fake, looks like crap.

reply

I agree-she could stand to fix it up better.

That said, they probably don't want her to look too glamorous for her position.

reply

I noticed from the season previews that she has a new hair style. Looks much better. Maybe they were listening.

reply

Not really! Still looks SO DRAB! Definitely does not fir the role of 2nd in command. Looks for like an assistant to the appointment secretary.

reply

Looks much better in the season 3 premiere. Tidier, sleeker -- and I think they've stopped with that hair piece/wig she used to wear.

reply

I thought at least some of the character was based on a former Secretary of State. So, you see....

reply

I think liz hair looked longer and lighter.

reply

I think her hair is fine. It looks a million times better than the hair on the Good Wife or on Blacklist and even on Bishop (NCIS).

reply

Or the changed hairstyle on Nell on NCIS LA.
