Jessica Alba looks drop-dead gorgeous with this black hair and sleek hairstyle. The dark hair pairs well with her skin complexion and brings out the natural color of her brown eyes. The parting down the middle allows this look to frame her face evenly on both sides. This style is ideal for those with any face shape as the length of her hair will flow naturally with the contour of your face shape. This straight hairstyle is perfect for those with medium hair texture. Keep in mind that if your hair is thick, it will take longer for you to straighten it, but it will also be hot and uncomfortable during the summer months. Your hair can begin to frizz if it is too thick. Finally, Jessica has placed her hair behind one ear, allowing you to see her stunning earrings and keeping some of her hair off her face.
You want to apply a formal makeup application with this look. A smokey eye is a beautiful place to start. You can apply some artificial lashes to make your eyes stand out more. Finish with a neutral lip color like Jessica used, or try something a little more daring, like a deep red. To create the appearance of a beautiful oval face shape and to get ready for your night out on the town, don't forget to highlight and contour your face and neck area.
