I’ve seen some posts going around about The Hair Issue, and I know there were a lot of mixed feelings about the wigs Gillian wore during Season 10. I think we can all agree that while we’d love for Scully to have her iconic red hair, in the event that a dye job would do too much harm to Gillian’s hair, how do we feel about a blonde Scully? I, for one, would be thrilled. I think it would allow Gillian to connect easier with Scully without the added physical discomfort of the wig.
I present, for your consideration, Exhibit A:
Now, I realize that this is a photoshoot, but I ain’t mad at this look, to be honest.
What are your thoughts???
I’m not a fan of a blonde Scully, honestly. Scully is a redhead – she just is. But if it’s between the awful red wig of S10 or real blonde? I’ll take platinum white see-through towhead Scully, hands down.
I can’t get behind the blonde very easily. Gillian had a hard time “finding Scully” in Season 10 I feel, and I think having essentially “Stella hair” would make that even harder, for her and for the viewers. I’d go for the wig over blonde hair, even as awful as it was. However, I’d have to think they’ve got enough time to remedy that situation this time around. Please???
I’m with you guys. I cannot get behind a blonde Scully. Give me that wig any day. Scully is a redhead. She doesn’t need the bright red hair she once had, a lighter strawberry blonde would do. She is older, her hair would lighten. But it would still be red.
The issue last time was that she had to dye her hair back blonde immediately for Stella, which would do great damage to her hair. This time, as far as we know, there are no projects for her directly afterwards that demand blonde hair. I’m hoping she can dye it this time, since it seemed she wanted to last time but couldn’t because of logistics.
I would have a hard time with blonde Scully too – but I also hold the hope that in case dying her hair isn’t possible, someone will make GA a better wig?
What about just some semi-perm dye? I mean there are ways. Seriously. No blonde Scully for me either. I missed her constantly fussing with her bangs and brushing it from her face. And I feel like that affected her ability to get in to character.
Ps Mulder’s hair could use some work too. It was shockingly bad.
Keep everything the same, but dye the hair RED.
Gillian looks so natural as a blonde, I’d love to see Scully blonde. That wig removed me from being able to concentrate on the revival at all. It was so distracting and phoney. Gillian’s face looked stretched and wrong. She’s too beautiful for that shit.
I can’t deal with that wig one more time. Her whole face looked red and stretched. Dye her hair or blond Scully and this-haircut Mulder all the way! Let them be at their hottest!
