Hair and Makeup: Pan Am (2011/12)

Pan Am (2011/12)

Style.com interview: http://www.style.com/beauty/beautycounter/2011/10/pan-am-goes-the-distance/

For the hair and makeup on Pan Am, I looked at the interview style.com did with the hair and makeup department heads (Chris Clark and Patricia Regan) who say that when it comes to finding inspiration for the characters, they reflect on the 1960's 'though the eyes of excited twentysomething explorers—our young jet-set crew taking in the fashions and customs of their destinations'. Clark explains that he likes the difference between when the characters are in the air and when they are down route as they are 'able to create an interesting juxtaposition between work and play'.

In terms of research, Clark and Regan looked at the history around 1963 such as the fashion, people, culture and most importantly, the history is Pan Am. They were lucky enough to have one of the producers to be a former Pan Am stewardess, which helps with the accuracy and authenticity as she has first hand insight into the world of Pan Am.
