Swain's favourite hair look that she's created to date was also her most controversial: the "hair hat" she did on Lizzo for the 2019 BET Awards. "I lost a whole sponsorship off of that hairstyle because they told me that I covered up her hair with a hat," Swain says. "I'm like, 'I did not cover her hair up with a hat — it is hair." She had painted the "wood-grain effect" onto the hair piece backstage beforehand and secured it to Lizzo's head moments before she stepped onto the red carpet.
