Eva Mendes is seen here on the red carpet for the official launch of ’30 Days of Fashion and Beauty’ held at the International Hotel in Sydney, Australia last Thursday. And Eva is proving that one’s hair does not need to be styled to the max to pull of red carpet beauty, even at a styling event such as this. Eva has gone full force with her outfit in a gorgeous black satin strapless dress with ruffled bodice, but went minimal on her hair style so as to let the dress speak for itself. Her hair has been styled straight and sleek with a serious but sexy middle part, and the overall look is one that is sleek and elegant. Achieving straight hair when you are normally working with heavy volume and wave can be a trick, but some straightening serum on towel dried hair will be a great start. Blow dry your hair from roots to tip with a flat paddled brush. Spritz on some additional straightening serum afterwards, and then flat iron your hair completely. You can spritz some anti humectants on following the flat iron, and then seal it in with some heat with another go ‘round with the flat iron. This will add some shine to your hair, and will also convince your natural waves to stay at bay and avoid the frizz factor.
