Katie Holmes is showing off a classic hairstyle that is perfect for all your casual events. She has taken it a step further and added her own twist to it when it comes to her hair color. The straight hair helps to frame her face. She has a natural-looking two-tone by having her natural hair color and then the bottom has been dyed a more copper color which looks absolutely stunning! You are going to need to use product on your hair before you straighten it so that you can protect your hair from the heat of your straightening iron. You are going to need to cut your hair once every 6 weeks or so to ensure that your hair stays healthy and that the color sticks better on your ends. You should redo your color once every 4 weeks or so to ensure that your color stays vibrant. The great thing about the two-tone look is that if you do not want to go color your hair as often, you do not have to as you don't need to worry about your root color showing.

When it comes to your makeup, you can do a natural smokey eye or you can add some color to your eyes to match your natural eye color. Finish off with a stunning lip color and you are ready!

Katie Holmes is flaunting a classic pageboy bob here with jagged ends. Katie has a square face shaped blended with a heart shaped face, meaning her face is predominately wide but with a pointed chin area.

Katie’s textured bangs and ends take away any blunt edges, which is a must for anyone with an angular jawline.
