7. What’s your wildest fan experience?
This one time, this one lady came up sprinting behind me pre-pandemic times in Kansas City. And I thought that she was an attacker. So I turned around with my cell phone like a mallet; I was ready to strike. But really, she was throwing her arms around to hug me, but I thought she was trying to kill me. So, there was one split second where I was ready to come for her. And she was like, “Ah!” I was like, “Argh!” And I was like, “Oh my God, you’re a fan! I’m so sorry. You can’t run up behind people like that, lady!” And she was like, “I’m sorry. I just freaked out when I saw you.” I was like, “I’m sorry I tried to attack you. We’re friends, right? Do you wanna take a selfie?” And that was probably one of the weirder ones.
8. Which celebrity would you love to have in your salon chair?
Not because she needs anything done, but Oprah because I just want to hang out. But if she would let me style it with some JVN hair care, I could just be like, “How are you so cool?” Or we could even just sit in salon chairs across from each other and have a talk. I just want to meet you, Oprah!
9. Were there any unexpected challenges when filming Getting Curious?
One thing that was really difficult about Season 1 of Getting Curious is that it was filmed throughout the coronavirus pandemic. So, we shot for a few months toward the end of 2020, and then we took a break because there was that big spike after the holiday season last year. I’m really proud of us because we kept everyone safe. We didn’t have anyone get COVID, and our whole crew was just so amazing. We all just really protected each other and were there for each other, but that was really challenging. And having everyone quarantine for 10 days before you do your scene. It’s like, “Do you want to come quarantine for 10 days? For a 20-minute interview?” It’s kind of hard to convince someone to want to do that.
