Have you gotten the change to binge watch Paris Berelc‘s new Netflix series, Alexa & Katie?
We’re not ashamed at all to say that we’ve watched it more times than we can count on our hands – and the one thing that we’re still obsessed about is the wigs that she, and co-star Isabel May, wear in the series.
JJJ spoke to Paris about getting to wear not only the wigs and picking her favorites, but also how it felt to wear just the bald cap on set.
“Wearing the bald cap was me in the chair for a few hours getting that done” Paris explains to us. “When I first saw myself bald, I’ll admit that I don’t look so bad bald. (laughs).”
She adds, “There’s definitely a shock when all your hair is gone and even watching it on screen it’s like ‘Woah. I’m bald.’ Going through that with Isabel was really eye opening. I can’t imagine what it is like for someone who actually is bald, from cancer.”
However, there was that perk of the wigs.
“We tried on so many that we didn’t even use,” Paris reveals, but her favorites were definitely the short blue and pink wigs in the second episode. “They were so much fun to wear.”
Another of her favorites actually wasn’t used though.
“One that we didn’t use was one with bangs that was brunette,” Paris says. “It was really cool and really cute, but it just didn’t make the cut.”
Maybe we’ll see it in season 2?
Alexa & Katie is streaming now on Netflix.
