Best: Philippa Eilhart

Prior to this season, sorceress Philippa Eilhart spent most of her time as an owl, spying for head of Redanian Intelligence Sigismund Dijkstra. But this season, actor Cassie Clare got plenty of screen time in human form, and The Witcher crew came correct when it comes to her looks. In one scene, she sports a towering wrapped and braided bun that transitions into a long, disconnected braid held together by an O-ring. In another, she has a curly faux-hawk with braided pieces laying across her forehead, with beads woven through the braids.

Going off London-based hair and makeup artist Paige Cole’s social media posts, Philippa’s hairstyles are a mix of Clare’s natural hair and well-placed extensions—her edges are laid, her baby hairs perfectly sculpted. That’s because Cole is a Black woman who knows how to style natural Black hair. Oh, and that massive braided bun? It’s over five feet long and braided through with leather strips.
