Emilia Clarke Is Mother of Hairstyles With Her Many Fabulous Looks

Sep 8 2018

We're so used to seeing Emilia Clarke with the same long, icy locks as Daenerys Targaryen on Game of Thrones, but the British actress's real hair has undergone many transformations over the years. She's flirted with a fringe, tried long and short styles, and experimented with various shades of brown, finally going blonde in real life to film the last season of Game of Thrones. Amazingly, she's nailed every single look. Take a look at each of Emilia's hairstyles right here, as we gear up to say farewell to Khaleesi and the gang.
