Leonel Rodriguez, Farouk artist, was a key player in the Miss USA pageant held this past Sunday. He was the stylist in charge of Alyssa Campanella, Miss California who went on to be crowned Miss USA 2011. This was a particularly interesting winner because she is one of the first contestants to give credit to her HAIR for her success!

We asked Leonel some questions to get to the bottom of Miss USA's coif and the drama doing pageant hair.
