I N S P I R E D B Y
the British science f ction
psychological thriller Ex
Machina (2015) about a
humanoid with artif cial
intelligence, Wella
Professionals' Sonya
Dove paired striking
hairstyles with a cool,
silvery blonde hue for
the looks seen in this
exclusive shoot. "I was
inspired by how the
lead female character in
the movie had different
personalities in one
robotic body, so I wanted
to create three looks
that would change the
model's character,"
says Dove, who serves
as Wella Professionals
global creative artist.

for this smooth,
ultramodern style,
Sonya Dove applied Wella
EIMI Perfect on the ends
and Flowing Form on the
roots and mid-lengths
before blow-drying. She
then backcombed the
hair at the root starting at
the nape, leaving the hair
smooth on top. Finally,
she rolled the hair under
and bobby pinned it at the
desired length.
