Timothée Chalamet Is One Set of Frosted Tips Away from Having Guy Fieri’s Hair
Timothée Chalamet’s hair has been on quite the journey as of late. In its natural state, it’s shaggy, soft, doing that French-boy-meets-drama-student thing. Then he went blonde for the A Complete Unknown press run. Then came the fancy little side part for Marty Supreme. Then the full buzz for the next Dune film. Now that filming’s wrapped, he’s in that awkward in-between phase. Most guys would let it sit there quietly. Chalamet, however, chose chaos.

At the Oscars Nominees Luncheon in Beverly Hills yesterday, he pulled up with what can only be described as a Guy Fieri-coded hair style. Though it isn’t yet full peroxide, it was definitely styled with gel or wax warmed between the palms, raked through, then twisted into small sections using the thumb and forefinger. The spikes were well defined. It had lift. It had separation. It had main-character-on-a-food-network-set energy. (Perhaps he was inspired by Guy’s Super Bowl commercial?)
Fit-wise, he went for custom DB from Givenchy, designed by creative director Sarah Burton. It was the second shiny suit he wore this week, only this time it was in a really deep cobalt blue. On his wrist was the Urban Jürgensen UJ-2, which retails for 105,000 Swiss francs, roughly $134,000. The Wonka star went with the platinum edition with a matching blue strap, because fashion!
Will he bleach the tips next? Who knows. But if Timothée Chalamet announces a Guy Fieri biopic next week, just remember: We saw the signs early.
