Jennifer Garner admits her 3-year-old daughter Violet's hair sometimes looks messy.

But it's not her fault.

"Ben [Affleck] will do the school run. He dresses her and does her hair. It's pretty funny," she tells May's InStyle (via JustJared). "You can always tell when he has been at it, just two random barrettes hanging in there. It's so sweet."

As for herself, Garner, 37, says, "I never go nuts with my look. It's easy to feel like youve gone into caricature territory when you do."

These days, the actress adds, "I wear less makeup than earlier in my career, but I know a lot more about it now."

She also says she's learned a lot from her own mother, Patricia.

"She taught me to proof my yeast with a little bit of sugar which she learned from her mom, Violet," she says. "And she also taught me how to stretch a roasted chicken to make three meals. Though Ben could eat an entire chicken in one sitting."
