You've worked with Ashley and Mary-Kate for 17 years — did that relationship get off to a similar start?
They were 15 when I met them. They know that I don't share Met Ball [with any other clients]; I'm their number-one for Met and for CFDA, but in the same way, they understand if they're going to the Oscar parties that I'm going to be with Gal [Gadot] or I'm going to be with Dakota, so we are able to balance that out.
I met them for their very first issue of Teen Vogue. They were doing a young Hollywood portfolio. On the photoshoot, they were very, very quiet. I was nervous that they didn't like me, but then came to find out they were actually whispering about me behind my back, asking my agent if I would go and work on a film with them. A week after that photoshoot, I was in Toronto setting up the hair trailer for what proved to be their last film ["New York Minute"] and it was my last film I did all the way through.
My favorite moment ever, I think, was I showed up at Ashley's apartment in New York thinking she just wanted a hair trim or something, and when I showed up, she answered the door and it looked like she was in army fatigues almost. She was covered in green — her hands, it was everywhere. Her whole kitchen and dining room was covered in swatches she had said, 'No one can find the right shade of mint so I'm going to make it.' That's so both of them, if it's not there, they're going to make it.
