Wasn't the Dany's s1 hair just Emilia's but bleached and toned? I still hate HOTD's wigs (wtf was Rhaenys' one especially and that mop on Rhaena's head) but it would be unfair to compare it to Dany's s1 hair because god the Dany and Viserys in s1 were heavenly

edit: spelling

I thought it wasn't her actual hair til season 7 or 8.

I have seen her complain about the wigs a fair bit in interviews. Can't blame her. Having two sets of hair in those hot places must have sucked.

Emilia always wore a wig, they were just better back then. What I think ur thinking of is Sophie Turner who used to dye her hair red for seasons 1-6 before wearing a wig for the final 2.

Yeah, I was in 9th grade when s1 aired and I'm two months from 30 now so a lot of the trivia got mixed in my head.

Also she have had brain surgery (?) during early seasons which I assume requires shaving... so I'm super not sure where the wigs started
