Hair

[Mona Wagner]

Hi Rick!

It would make for a much more exciting reply to your question but there is no “deeper meaning” or master plan behind our hair choices. It all started off quite innocently, when we went to the hairdresser one afternoon after school and were allowed to get a coloured streak in our hair. It might have actually been to celebrate a good report card or something similar. On a whim, I went with blond and lisa chose orange (that photo is from 2005 … click to enhance):

A few years and several hair experiments later and we returned to those colours, adding more and more streaks until we ended up with our current hair colours and cuts. You might say it got a little out of hand 😉

I always found shorter hair to be more convenient, so once I had cut mine off I didn’t want to grow it out any more. Again, all very mundane reasons, haha.

Once we got into the swing of making more and more YouTube videos and people started to recognise us by our hair we decided to keep it relatively consistent. I’ve been growing out my fringe lately and doing lots of braiding but at the end of the day it’s just hair, so when we’re not performing a lot it’s allowed to just do what it wants 😛

PS. By the way, the baby-boy on the photo is our “little” cousin Oliver, who has meanwhile outgrown us.

Rick, thanks for asking such a great question, one that I have been wondering for a very long time. And Mona, thanks for your candid response! When I look at photos of you Mona, you look so completely natural that I can’t for the life of me see you in my mind’s eye with different hair -even though there are plenty of older photos showing your darker natural color. I think that a good test of a woman’s true physical beauty is if, when you look at her, you don’t notice any particular feature like the color of her hair, etc. Instead, your attention is focused on her entire persona and the beauty that just seems to naturally radiate out from her soul. Personally, I feel that Mona is one of the most uniquely beautiful women I have seen in my entire life. The impact of her image in photos or videos is stunning and immediately generates a compelling sense of joy. And to have a twin sister!!!…is just too good to be true. A real visual feast!

You both look so adorable in that picture with the blond and red streaks.  Stephen to your point, in that MG photo shoot and video, Mona and Lisa looked better than many of the finest Hollywood stars from the glamorous heydays of film.  I hope Hollywood doesn’t come around and steal them away from us.

MONA,

THANKS FOR YOUR WONDERFUL ANSWER! YOUR ANSWERS ACTUALLY MAKE A LOT OF SENSE. “LITTLE OLIVER” CERTAINLY HAS LEFT YOU IN HIS DUST, HEIGHT WISE. THATS SOMETHING YOU BOTH HAVE ON LISA. HAHA THE AIR CERTAINLY IS MUCH “CLEANER UP THERE”
