Charlize Theron’s latest look included a high fashion hack for covering roots.

The “Bombshell” star arrived to the 26th Annual Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards in Los Angeles showing off her red carpet prowess in an edgy two-piece ensemble by Givenchy. Besides her eye-catching sequinned top and black belted skirt, Theron’s look included one sparkling edition that caught the attention of fashion lovers everywhere: A diamond Tiffany & Co. bracelet in her hair.

The 44-year-old Oscar winner revealed that the unconventional $15,500 USD accessory was suggested by her hairstylist, Adbir Abergel, to help mask the star’s half-inch of regrowth.

“I didn’t have time to do my roots,” Theron told People magazine. “So my lovely friend Adir said ‘Why don’t we throw a Tiffany necklace or bracelet in there?’”

Abergal revealed his secrets to the “futuristic” look that included prepping Theron’s blonde hair with products from Virtue Labs, a brand that uses keratin in its purest form to help strengthen and repair hair.

"First off, I saw her incredible Givenchy gown and it reminded me of the 1920s, so my brain immediately wanted to give her a short haircut a new twist,” the celebrity hairstylist told Refinery 29.

The celeb stylist applied Healing Oil to treat the star’s processed locks and Un-Frizz leave-in treatment to prevent frizz. Abergal then created small braid to create a faux-middle part and used invisible thread to sew the bracelet into place.

The entire look was smoothed into place using Abergel’s Dyson Supersonic diffuser.

The three-carat Tiffany & Co. Victoria line diamond bracelet was just one eye-catching piece the South African beauty wore to the SAG Awards. In total, Theron wore more than $4 million USD worth of diamonds, including 11-carat diamond earrings and an assortment of bracelets and rings.
