Sophie Turner was asked not to wash her hair during GoT

Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner says she was asked to not wash her hair in order to maintain her look for the show. The 22-year-old actor, who plays Sansa Stark on the hit HBO series, said from season five onwards she was forced to live with “really disgusting” hair. “For the first few seasons I was allowed to wash my hair because I was an aristocratic young girl. Towards season five, they started asking me to not wash my hair and it was really disgusting,” Turner told a magazine. “(In the final season) I wear a wig, so I can wash my hair whenever I want, which is nice. But yes, for a couple of years I was living with pretty greasy hair,” she added. The actor described the experience as “really itchy” and “disgusting”. “(It was) really itchy! Also, we would have the snow machines going so we would have little snow paper particles that would get stuck in the grease. It was disgusting,” Turner said. (PTI)
