Dear Jessica,
I am so excited to hear you are joining up with the 'life-saving' (and career!) saving hair products "White Sands".
I am a 30 year film and television makin' journeyman hairstylist and 3 years ago my key hairstylist (Patty Budz local 706), attended a hair show in La Vegas and came back to L.A.
Drove to my house to show me this 'incredible' ...you aren't gonna believe it'....hair spray/texture spray etc...
She drove over sprayed my hair and flat ironed it straight up! it stayed liked invisible spray but then she said "wait watch this!" brushes it and its soft again!
The actors and actresses deserve the best and we can relax a little know and i mean... knowing ...we can set a style in lights or winds and it do what needs to be done...we can walk away and invade our talents 'space' less. white sands is a winner...thank you for developing it!

Randa Squillacote of Ace Ventura 3:
"White Sands takes hairdresser's to new heights"
"White Sands can turn your canvas to pieces of priceless art"
"When I'm creating design in a hairstyle for film, television, or weddings, I am confident that White Sands will help me achieve these looks with minimal effort, and maximum hold. And with a flick of a brush hair is back to a normal and healthy state. Like ocean waves washing away your White Sands castle"
"I love White Sands!"
Renee Ferruggia, TBS's The Bill Engvall Show:
Liquid Texture is one of my favorite products. I love using the soft hold for blow drying, while the medium and firm hold are perfect for curls and iron work. I can run my fingers through the hair. This is what makes the products so different.
Damon Von Osdel:
I absolutely love the White Sands hair products! I work in the Entertainment Industry and my main concern is that the style lasts when my client leaves me. Liquid Texture is my favorite product of the line and does exactly that...IT LASTS!!! Since using Liquid Texture, every one of my clients has expressed to me how happy they were with the product and the style held up all day!
Linda Schonning:
I also love the Hair products by White Sands. I have photos on my website to show the great curls and texture you are able to achieve. White Sands has the wow factor!!! you have been looking for. I am amazed at how the hair has shine, body and best of all; the hairstyles stay in the Florida humidity. Whenever I am working on the set of film, television commercials, print, lifestyle and catalogue White Sands will save the production company time and money because we do not have to keep re-curling the hair all day. White Sands products also look great on HD. HD has so much definition that the hair will look amazing. Check out White Sands website www.whitesandsproducts.com. I can guarantee you will love White Sands Product.
On Set with Randa Squillacote
Funny man Jim Carrey transformed the Ace Ventura character into an instant hit with the release of the classic first film. With an infamous hairstyle to recreate, celebrity hairdresser Randa Squillacote perfectly tackled this “Ace Wave” for the release of movie’s 3rd installment: Ace Ventura Jr. White Sands hair products were on set to style the entire cast of stars. Read on for an exclusive interview full of set hair secrets and tips from Ace Ventura 3’s favorite hairdresser: Randa Squillacote.
1. How did you achieve Ace's signature hairstyle?
I watched all the Ace Ventura movies to figure out how Jim Carrey’s hair was styled. When I met Josh Flitter (Ace Jr) he had a great head of hair. On our prep days, I tried out different styling techniques with blow dryers, flat irons and product until we achieved the correct “Ace Wave”.
2. Besides Ace, did any other characters require special styling?
Ralph Waite, John Walton from the Walton’s, played Ace Jr’s grandfather. I also had to style his own hair in the “Ace Wave”. (The hair style runs in the family from B.C.) I was asked by the director if I could come up with a wig with an “Ace Wave” for Ace’s dog and I did. It is pretty funny.
3. Describe a typical day in the hair and makeup trailer.
We started every morning very early. The cast was so much fun. Josh would usually put on music from Queen (his favorite). There was a lot of singing and sometime dancing. We (the makeup and hair department) decorated the trailer with every type of animal we could think of. We had stuffed animals, plastic animals, pictures of animal everywhere, hanging from the ceiling to hanging on our mirrors. The crew had an average of 12 hours a day.
4. Which White Sands products were your on set favorites?
My favorite products for the Ace Wave is White Sands Liquid Texture Firm Hold and White Sands Infinity Liquid Texture Firm Finish Spray. It is the only product that would hold up all day (10 to 12 hours) with the heat and humidity of Florida. Maximum hold with minimal effort.
