For example, Zendaya’s 2006 mood board included several photos of the tennis pro on the court, wearing a visor, slicked back ponytail, and long braids. As Tashi ages in the film, her hair changes. The long dark hair she wore as a feisty, genius tennis player was chopped off to her brown mid-length after an injury that ended her tennis career, and ended up with a blonde-ish force.

Feist and O’Connor also wore wigs in the film. “[Faist] She was ice blonde, [O’Connor] It was dark to find the polarity. ” This was intentional to show their dual nature (both in tennis and in love) as opponents. “They were almost like ice and fire. White and black,” Guttabursi says.

[Zendaya wore the same product on Euphoria to appear as if she wasn’t wearing makeup at all.] To create a naturally tanned blush, Robinson applied Benefit Cosmetics Benetint to her cheeks and Colourpop SOL Bronzing Balm to create a “tan and tan” look on court, Robinson said. I added some freckles with Freck Beauty’s Freck Noir.
