“Age of Attraction” Star, Vanessa Drozda, Reveals Her Youth-Boosting Tricks!
Joico celebrity stylist and salon owner, Vanessa Drozda, has been doing hair for over 30 years – including her own during her starring appearance on the Netflix mega-hit series, Age of Attraction. Vanessa’s personal journey to find love may have been the goal, but her timeless hair transformations were just as big a hit with viewers. “My approach to hair completely changed in my 40s…I began focusing more on health and condition, because youthful hair is shiny, healthy, and silky,” confesses Vanessa.
Today, she’s sharing all the how-to’s so you can steal her timeless, signature style and feel confident at any age.
“This pony is one of my favorite “no-one can guess my age” looks.

It’s like an instant face lift — and it’s perfect for those days you don’t have time for a full hair wash
Her cheat code:
Forget about a fresh shampoo. Vanessa masters this “dated to date-worthy” updo with three-day-old hair, which helps with texture and staying power.
Game-changer tips:
Add waves or curls from mid-lengths to ends so your ponytail has movement and fullness.
Have your “pony land at a 45-degree angle from your cheekbones. “This is going to draw the eye upwards and give that instant facelift result,” says Vanessa.
Add a second ponytail holder two inches above the first one. (Vanessa uses spiral ones that don’t rip the hair.) Layered together, they create more lift and fullness when you pull and fan your ponytail.
