Celebrity editorial stylist Mark Townsend created a modern and fresh hair look for Lea Michele. “Lea wanted her hair to look touchable and super modern, and full hair with lots of volume and a bit of roughness was perfect against her flawless gown” said stylist Mark Townsend.

Here’s how to get Lea Michele’s look:

• “Lea’s look started with clean hair.  She used Dove Daily Treatment Conditioner to give softness and smoothness in the time it takes to use a conditioner.

·         “The end-of-Summer timing of the Emmys is a perfect opportunity to play with color. Lea is still shooting episodes of “Glee” and we couldn’t do anything permanent, so I added in a few custom pieces of hair to add dimension and giver her removable highlights for the evening. The result was a golden/coppery effect throughout the ends of her hair.

·         “I wanted Lea’s hair to move in all different directions, so I added in Dove Body & Lift Volumizing Mousse throughout damp her and blow dried with a round brush to add lift.

• “Next  spray 3 inch sections of hair with Dove Heat Defense Therapy Mist to protect hair against heat styling damage before using an iron
• “Then use a 2 inch curling iron to give a subtle bend or ‘S’ curl, rather than a perfect curl. Curl from the ends all the way up, and set each section with a barrel clip for 5 to 7 minutes or until cool.
• “Scrunch hair with Dove Daily Moisture Therapy Replenishing Mist to add moisture and blow dry briefly without a diffuser to look a bit undone.

·         “Warm a pea-sized amount of Dove Frizz Control Therapy Taming Cream between the palms of hands.  Rake fingers through hair to distribute product evenly for shiny, modern texture.

·         “To evoke Brigitte Bardot inspiration, tease hair at the crown for extra volume and lift.

·         “To finish Lea’s look I sprayed Dove Unscented Extra Hold Hairspray with Natural Movement (Aerosol) liberally on a small, natural bristle eyebrow brush (the kind that looks like a wooden toothbrush) and ran it through her bangs to hold a middle part. The parted bangs gave a modern update to the 60’s vibe of her hair.

·         “I gave Lea a 2 oz. Dove Extra Hold Hairspray with Natural Movement and the natural eyebrow brush to take with her in case she needed a touchup.”

HOW TO GET JANUARY JONES’S HAIR LOOK, nominee for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her iconic role in “Mad Men.”

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.

Here’s how to get January Jones’s look:

·         “The night before, use Dove Intensive Repair Damage Therapy Shampoo and 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 add smoothness.

·         “Finish the look by spraying Dove Flexible Hold Hairspray with Natural Movement (Aerosol) to set the style but still allow movement.”

Tips from Celebrity Editorial Stylist Mark Townsend for Dove Hair Care:

“I was there for Lea’s dress fitting. Everyone in the room knew the Oscar de la Renta gown was “the one” as soon as she put it on, so my brain started working immediately. I wanted to find a way to blend Hollywood and fashion together. Her hair has a modern feel but is inspired by Brigitte Bardot.”

“I texted Lea when she was in the car on her way to the carpet and told her to not brush her hair with a regular hairbrush!  I wanted it to have some texture and separation, so I gave her a mini-bottle of Dove Hairspray and natural bristle eyebrow brush in case.”

“This has been my favorite Emmys of my entire career. Everything was so relaxed and went so smoothly – it’s been the most fun and the most me. “

“January has to maintain very specific hair style for her show, so she doesn’t have the freedom to cut her hair. A modern, asymmetrical bob was the perfect way to have fun with her look.”
