Kim Ferry is one of the incredible hairstylists in the media. she worked as a member of The Office’s hair and makeup crew for eight seasons.
Mashable talked with Ferry about her time on The Office, alongside probably the most vital hair moments from the series.
While John Krasinski‘s wig may have been Ferry’s most distressing hair second from the show the workplace, her preferred haircut and the one that necessary the most arranging was when Meredith Palmer shaved her head in “Lice,” the tenth episode of Season 9.
“That was three weeks of prep for me, and I had to be able to figure everything out because Greg Daniels wanted [Kate Flannery] to shave her head. He really did. And I just couldn’t allow it,” Ferry explained. “[Flannery] was like, ‘I don’t want to shave my head!’ and I was like, ‘I’m not gonna let that happen.'” So Ferry called in a major reinforcement: Ed French, a makeup artist known as “The Godfather of Bald Caps.
The show’s hairstylist, Kim Ferry, recently revealed to Mashable: While filming Season 3 of “The Office,” the actor, 40, outwitted his showrunners into letting him wear a wig for the last six episodes so he could cut his hair for the 2008 film “Leatherheads.”
The Leatherheads job required Krasinski to trim his hair, which Office showrunner Greg Daniels wasn’t ready for, so he shut down Krasinski’s solicitation. As opposed to turning down the job, Krasinski went to Ferry for help, and the two collaborated for a highly confidential wig activity.
she said yes. “He paid for the wig — a human hair wig made by a friend of mine, Natascha Ladek, who’s the best wig maker in town,” Ferry said. “She came in to do a secret little fitting for him, she made the wig, we got it, and it looked amazing. [Krasinski] came in a little later that day, and I had the wig hidden in a little secret spot ready for him. When it was just him and I, I put it on him, and then he went out and filmed.”

Ferry also added “I’m grateful for the entire experience,” Ferry said. “There are many jobs, there are many people, but there’s nothing like The Office. That’s literally my one in a million. It’s the best job I’ve ever had.”
Since the creation of The Office ran over half a month and Ferry had a commitment to begin her next activity on Pretty Little Liars, she, shockingly, needed to miss the last long periods of shooting.
