HAIR HOW-TO
“This messy, curly look is something we haven’t seen on Lea before,” says Townsend. “I wanted it a little damp and imperfect, like she’d really been dancing.” He worked a dollop of Dove Damage Therapy Curl & Sculpt Defining Mousse into damp strands and blew them out with a roundbrush. He grabbed three-inch sections and wrapped them around a 1-½ inch curling iron. “Be sure you go through the entire head, although the spirals can be kind of random,” he says. To finish, Townsend mixed a blend of Dove Frizz Control Taming Cream and sandbox sand in the palm of his hand and raked it through her hair. (Yes, you read correctly.) “I’ve been using this trick since before all the great beach sprays came out. Sandbox sand is super, super fine. This paste thickens the hair and clumps it together without making it crunchy,” he says.
