Is this the surrounding foam where the waterfalls are hitting the water, or is it in her hair, where she is reaching for it?
Sorry if I misunderstood, but here are my (hopefully relevant) suggestions:
Looking at pictures of "small waterfalls" on google, I think you could get away with doing things like positioning rocks at angles to get odd turbulent shapes of foam around her, whilst also including some calmer water that runs down her back. Generally water grows more turbulent (foamy) when it is shallow, and running over uneven rock. Being pinched into a narrow corner increases it too. Speed of flow also plays a part. Waterfalls can vary hugely, even the little ones like these.
If the white hair vs. white foam contrast is giving you trouble, I suggest experimenting with counterchange - here's a great article by James Gurney on it: http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.co.uk/2008...hange.html Basically, you could try manipulating rocks and foam to reverse the light on dark/dark on light relationships.
