Most celebrities have that one signature look they can always rely on, and for Dakota Johnson, that just may be the beachy wave. The actress is often spotted rocking effortless tresses that look like she just stepped off the seaside sands of Malibu, and it’s the perfect style to adopt for the spring and summer!
Even if you don’t have naturally wavy hair, there are products that you can use to create the effect — and who better to turn to for advice than Johnson’s real-life hairstylist? In an interview with Vogue, Mark Townsend, who has been working with the 50 Shades star since 2013, outlined the products he uses to create those perfectly piecey tresses so we can all achieve the same look.

The product of choice for Johnson’s messy-yet-polished beach wave hairstyle is the Kevin Murphy Hair Resort Spray. Townsend explains that he uses this texturizing styler “from the mid-lengths down to give it a little piecey-ness.” This oil-free spray is designed to make your hair look like you just soaked up the sun for the ultimate surfer girl look. It’s ideal for all hair types, but we think it would work especially well for fine strands to give them a bit more volume and hold.
The spray also has a lovely combo of fresh fragrances that include honey, citrus and tangerine so your locks will smell heavenly after application. Shoppers note that they adore the scent and claim it’s not particularly overpowering, so it won’t necessarily overtake the perfume you’re wearing.

Even if you don’t want to go for the slightly messy look, this spray can act as a lightweight hairspray that may help your curls or blowout last longer instead of falling apart. If you find that your hair doesn’t hold a style for too long, this spray may be the secret weapon you’ve been missing! Whether you’re looking to emulate Johnson’s iconic waves or need a product that gives your hair more body and hold, this spray seems to get the job done. Pick it up ahead of the summer months!
