Even the smallest of details can reveal a lot about a character when it comes to Game of Thrones [1], particularly when it comes to their hair [2]. In an Instagram post on Monday, star Emilia Clarke [3] shared a photo of herself behind the scenes, with one very important part of her costume was missing: her Daenerys wig. Even though she was still getting ready, Clarke was almost unrecognisable without the Mother of Dragons's signature platinum blond braids [4].
"This is what it took not only to shoot ep 5 . . . but to watch it too! #🤯," Clarke captioned the photo of herself wearing a bald cap and holding up a large bottle of Dom Perignon in celebration of the show's penultimate episode [5]. While Clarke is a true Khaleesi with or without her wig, we can definitely see now what a huge role Daenerys's hair plays in defining her character. See some of Dany's hairstyles throughout the years ahead.
