Last October, Anistonreflected on her character’s wildly popular haircutwhile presenting McMillan with the Hairstylist of the Year Award at the 2018InStyleAwards.
“I got that haircut and was like, ‘Wow this is amazing,’ and then I was totally left with this frizzy mop on my head, because I had no idea how to do what he did,” theMorning Showactress joked ofthe iconic ‘do. “Nobody seems to know how to do what Chris does. And I figured out that’s called creating job security.”
While Aniston kept her speech playful, she became sentimental while reflecting on the last two decades they’ve spent as close friends and collaborators.
“Aside from all of the amazing work that we’ve done, the jobs, the trends, the hairstyles that we’ve created, the things that always meant the most to me is how much you’ve always been there for me and I’ve been there for you,” theFriendsstar said, nodding to the iconic theme song of the hit ’90s sitcom. “We literally saved each other lives and hearts many, many, many times, and I mean that literally and figuratively.”

For Aniston, a haircut with McMillan has never been “just a cut and a dry,” but rather, “something kind of miraculous.”
“I sometimes wonder if Chris is more of an undercover healer than a hairdresser,” she said at the awards ceremony. “He just makes everyone feel better as much as look better.”
“And now we’re Instagram FRIENDS too,” she captionedher first post. “HI INSTAGRAM 👋🏻.”
