Description
Eva Longoria looks beautiful with these dark brunette curls and side-swept bangs. Eva has cut layers into her hair, which allows the curls to fall at different angles. This styling technique helps to frame her cheekbone area to perfection. These tight curls add a lot of body and volume to this hairstyle, which is stunning for those with a strong jawline. The parting down the middle allows this look to fall evenly on both sides, while the lifted roots add height to this look. The height is needed to help elongate her face shape and give off the illusion that her hair is thicker than it is. This overall look will suit those with an oblong, oval, square, diamond, and heart face shape. Tight curls like Eva's will suit those with a thin-medium hair density as the curls will hold the best in those types of hair. Eva has pulled her hair slightly forward, which allows the curls to frame her eye area and create the illusion of layered bangs. You are going to need to cut your hair once every four to six weeks to keep your ends healthy.
When it comes to your makeup application, a black smokey eye is great for a formal event paired with a nude lipstick color. Keep in mind that your hair might fall in your face so you do not want to have a gloss finish on your lips.

Styling Steps
Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your nose and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even middle part. A middle part is a great way to make small, round face shapes appear longer and thinner.
Take a small section of hair and place the ends at the base of your curling iron barrel and then wrap the hair up around the barrel until you reach your mid-lengths. Hold the hair for 5 to 10 seconds and then release the hair by unwinding the strands backwards.
To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
