Iain Armitage's Instagram account posted a surprisingly touching message about Nickole when the news of her passing broke:

"It is an incredible feeling to work where the people you are surrounded with truly feel like family. The hard part of this kind of love is when you have to say goodbye. Iain first met Ms Nickole on Big Little Lies on his very first day as an actor. The kids on BLL were fascinated with her flawless makeup and gorgeous nails and also responded to the fun atmosphere she created. Iain was thrilled when she came to Young Sheldon- he felt like he’d won the lottery. She was so talented, but also so incredibly kind and made everything she touched more beautiful. We are bereft and miss everything about her so much, especially her thoughtfulness and her laughter. She leaves behind a family that meant the whole world to her, and also a work family- and she meant the world to us. We love you, Ms Nickole. We are grateful to have shared the earth with you. Thank you for everything."

Nickole's buddy, make-up artist Anya Brewster, created a GoFundMe to help reinforce Nickole's family. 

She described Nickole, writing, "Nickole was a force of a woman. She didn't accept anything but the best. Her tenacity and conviction for all things beautiful gave way to a very successful career as hairstylist working in both television and film. Some of her credits include Young Sheldon (Department Head,)  The Mindy Project (Department Head,) Big Little Lies, and NCIS. Her celebrity client list was one that most people would dream of.

Anya was in a position to lift over $54,000 (although we would not be stunned if the stars she labored with assist chip in, privately — it's clear that Nickole had gained the hearts of so many other folks). 

So, while you rewatch episodes of Big Little Lies, Young Sheldon, or The Mindy Project, recall to mind Nickole. It's comforting to grasp that her legacy and artistry will probably be eternal.
