For the 70s inspired getup, Moore’s hairstylist Ted Gibson gave the actress some bouncy curls inspired by the likes of Jennifer Beals in Flashdance. “[Mandy was] nervous about [the hairstyle] at first,” said Gibson, who convinced her about “how cool this look would be.” Gibson added to Yahoo of the hairdo, “It’s really in fashion, this kind of texture. And if I have to see another beach wave, I will scratch my eyes out, ha!”
