Hair & There

2003
As one who experiments with color and hair textures, Eve loves to change things up. If you want to rock bold blonde locks, remember “colored hair is like delicate fabric; it needs to be cared for like fine washables,” says David Stanko, hair color consultant for Redken.

Bangin’

2004
Wondering how to slow down the aging process? Forget about Botox; instead head to the salon and ask your stylist to cut you some bangin’ bangs like Eve’s. Bangs can conceal the signs of aging giving you a more youth appearance.

Curl Power

If you’re a woman wanting to go red, choose a color that has a golden touch. Try autumn leaf shades instead of cooler berry hues to get a look that is right now. Skip the cherry or fruity tones, especially as a base color.

Shades of Blonde

Step up your blond tresses like Eve by using chamomile tea. “Steep tea to a dark tone, cool then apply to washed hair. Leave on five to ten minutes, apply conditioner then rinse,” says color guru Philip Pelusi.

All Out Glam

“If you can’t grow it, sew it,” says David Stanko, hair color consultant for Redken. If your hair isn’t in the best condition, weave in colored hair or try detachable pieces. We love the softness to Eve’s do that highlights her gorgeous features best.
