I had a chance to spend some time talking to the hilarious and genuine hair stylist extraordinaire Mark Townsend tonight and he told me a few tidbits that you might not know about Miss January Jones who just happens to be a nominee for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series at the Primetime Emmys tonight for her iconic role in “Mad Men.”. Number one, January picks out everything on her own and doesn’t work with a stylist…she follows fashion religiously (good for her!!) Mark has worked with her so long that they can almost speak shorthand with each other and….she also had very specific ideas about how she wanted to look for the evening, “feminine but tough and edgy.” Mark was happy to oblige and actually went to her house last night and did her hair…..so he could have that second day texture that we ALL covet. He worked exclusively with Dove products on her hair.
Celebrity editorial stylist Mark Townsend created an edgy, fashion-forward look for January Jones. “A textured, asymmetrical bob was the perfect way to incorporate January’s love of editorial fashion and runway style into a feminine, yet tough look,” said stylist Mark Townsend.
The Rundown:
- “The night before, use Dove Intensive Repair Damage Therapy Shampoo & Conditioner to strengthen hair and prevent damage.
- “Second day texture was key to achieve this runway-meets-Hollywood look, so I pre-styled her hair the night before. Distribute Dove Curl & Sculpt Defining Mousse throughout and blow dry hair with round brush to add lift
- “Set top sections of hair with large, 3 inch Velcro rollers for 15-20 minutes. While rollers set, add extensions in the front only to make hair longer in the front and shorter in the back.
- “Spritz throughout with Dove Heat Defense Therapy Mist to protect against styling damage.
- “Wrap 1 ½ to 2 inch sections of hair around a 1 inch curling iron to create a big, loose wave instead of a tight curl.
- “The next day, reapply mousse to add lift to hair, and blow dry gently with a round brush to freshen up ends but not set perfectly.
- “Rake a small amount of Dove Frizz Control Therapy Taming Cream through hair to smooth hair.
- “I finished the look by spraying Dove Flexible Hold Hairspray with Natural Movement (Aerosol) to set the style but still allow movement.”
Of course you can get your own Dove products at major drugstore retailers nationwide.
Stay Pretty!!
