Hairstylist Mark Townsend shares his process and expert tips for getting hair like Dakota Johnson’s.
who has been working his styling magic on those tresses for a decade, ever since they met when Johnson was first cast in“We bonded right away,” he says, reminiscing on their first job together, a 2013 Gucci LACMA event for which Johnson wore a Gucci dress with feathers and jewels. “She hadn’t cut in the bangs yet, but she told me she liked her hair up and simple. I was all about putting a little texture in up-dos and she just let me play.
One of his favorite red carpets the pair have worked on together was the Independent Spirit Awards a few years ago, which was held on a windy beach. “While I suggested we try a ponytail or up-do, she wanted to wear her hair down,” he says. “In the end, she actually went to the event with a scrunchie on her wrist, just in case, so she could tie it up into a ponytail. Actually, half way through it, she did.
“Dakota always loves to have very clean hair, so my challenge is always to make it look not-so-clean. I want it to look like it’s the second day post-wash. We’ve found dry products work better on her hair, so it’s all about dry shampoo.
