Braiding
Actress Katheryn Winnick’s hair is meticulously braided for another day on set in this image, which was taken behind-the-scenes during season three. When attempting to match a shot from the previous day, the hairdresser must take great care to ensure that the braids appear consistent, especially while trying to replicate a shot from a prior day.
Most of the hair on Vikings is handled by stylist Dee Corcoran. Hair for each actor takes around 40 minutes to complete. Lagertha’s style has grown particularly popular, with instructional videos emerging on YouTube. “The first time I saw the [tutorials] on YouTube, I laughed… I thought it was fantastic. It’s an excellent look. Even my daughter has worn it,” added Corcoran.
