Glamour: Is there a beauty trend right now that you swear by?
Jenna Ortega: I’m not good with the trends, but I feel like fashion-wise people are starting to go back to neutral colors, almost more earth tone, which I think is really fascinating. I’ve always resonated with that, so I like it.
Is there anything that you won’t spend money on either when it comes to skincare or beauty?
I usually will not spend money on hair products. If it’s a good hair day, it’s a good hair day. And if it’s not, well that’s too bad. I’m never going to concern myself with any hair product, I don’t think.
So, this is just air dried normally? Because it looks amazing.
This is a glam team. This is three different people to make me look effortless and casual. [Laughs] When I air dry it, it doesn’t naturally have a bit of a wave. I will say that having fringe, there is effort that is put in there, which is really unfortunate. But that’s a blow-dryer. Or sometimes best of luck to you, wear a cap.
I can’t even remember the amount of hair stories we’ve done on the popularity of your haircut.
That was a really impulsive decision. They call it the wolf cut now, right? But I always knew it as a shag. When I told my hairdresser, Dave Stanwell, that I wanted to cut my hair, we were referring to it as a shag. And then people were saying, “wolf cut.” What the hell is that? It’s kind of cute. It’s cute.

What is the best beauty advice your mom ever gave you?
I will always trust a burgundy lip. My mom always had a strong lip liner and when I’m concerned or scared or don’t know what to do or feel lost in the beauty world, I just take off all my makeup, then put on nice burgundy lip and I feel like home. I feel like myself. That that is the go-to safe choice.
