Say what you want about Gail Abernathy-McKadden, but the Pitch Perfect 2 character knows how to express herself with style and swag. It may be over the top at times, but that's exactly why we love the quirky International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella commentator. She knows how to pump up the volume—especially with her hair!
Fortunately, we were able to tap into the brilliant mind that created the movie's hair looks, Pitch Perfect 2 lead hair designer Cheryl Marks.
Here, the master stylist shows us how to modernize one of Gail's most noteworthy looks—the braided mohawk. It may look complicated, but all that the updo requires is healthy hair, dry shampoo, a Dutch braid, a few bobby pins and flexible hairspray.
Watch the video above to get the how-to for a look that translates as well on the big screen as it does on the beach.
