DeWanda Wise is rocking this formal, elegant yet easy hairstyle that is going to rock the party! The parting down the middle allows your hair to frame your face evenly on both sides and it will go into the low pony easily. The straight hair really suits her face shape and is a style that will never get old. After a new shampoo and conditioning session, the best time to flat iron your hair is just afterwards. Ask yourself this question before you turn on that flat iron: is my hair well-conditioned? Is it well hydrated? Switch off the iron and take care of your hair first if it's not. Apply a heat protectant to each portion of your hair once it has dried before flat ironing it.

This is a formal hairdo, thus you should use formal makeup. Cover up any blemishes on your skin to make it look silky smooth. To create the illusion of a flawless oval face shape, contour and highlight your face and neck area. You can go for a strong, smoky eye or even paint your eyelids. This will help to bring out the natural color of your eyes. Using artificial lashes will help your eyes stand out even more. Finish with your preferred lipstick color and you're ready for a night on the town!
