In fashion, whatever Heart Evangelista touches turns to gold. Her street style looks go viral. “Heart Evangelista hair” trends on TikTok. Even her aspin Panda’s Bulgari moment has made headlines.
In a bold move, the style icon recently debuted her newly minted purple-red hair color. It’s arguably a show-stopping shade that’s equal parts edgy and elegant and looks great with all her ‘fits. Check out this list for all the different ways you can emulate her always-stylish hair looks.
Ribbons are having a major moment, and Heart shows how you can make them your go-to hair accessory. A girl can never have too many ribbons, yes?
How to make it yours: Add a cutesy detail to your regular half-up ‘do with a classic black ribbon. Feeling extra kikay? Style your hair in long, loose curls and clip on mini bows in equal sections throughout your hair for a whimsical, Heart-approved look.
This neat updo adds a little drama to an otherwise basic ballerina bun. It’s an interesting way to soften or loosen up a prim-and-proper ‘do.
How to make it yours: Pull your hair into a sleek mid-bun and leave a few strands loose at the nape. Curl the loose ends to add movement, to balance out the too-slick look of this hairstyle. Lastly, pile on the statement jewelry – an earring party, a chunky necklace, or both.
If you want a hairstyle that’s romantic, sleek, and with a bit of sass, try a braided low bun with bangs on one side. The slicked-back crown keeps it neat, while the braid and fringe give it texture and movement.
How to make it yours: Part your hair to one side. Then, pull your hair back into a low ponytail, braid it, twist it, and secure it into a low bun. Leave a few strands loose on one side and style using a hair mousse or leave-in conditioner to keep it in place. Finish the look with oversized earrings.
Mermaid-like waves were the “it” hair of the late 2000s, but it remains a tried-and-true look today. It adds an instant oomph to any outfit!
How to make it yours: Part your hair in the middle. Then, use a curling iron to create loose waves on the lower ends of your hair. Try finger-combing the waves for a more natural look.
Silky, shiny, and long straight hair makes such an impact. The way it moves, falls, and frames your face is chic and flattering. And even when the wind blows through it, you never end up looking like a hot mess.
How to make it yours: Use Cream Silk Vitamin Boost Standout Straight Conditioner to give your hair a nourishment boost. It's formulated with marula and argan oil to help smooth and strengthen frizzy and dry strands.
Before styling, apply a serum or any heat-protecting product to your locks. Section your hair into at least eight parts. Then, using a flat iron, slowly straighten the strands. Once done, try running your fingers through where your hair parts so it falls messily and naturally.
Get this preppy, schoolgirl-ish look with a pair of snap clips. Pay homage to the “it” girls of the Y2K era and wear this hairstyle with checked co-ords or cable knits.
How to make it yours: Instead of the usual silver or black-plated clips, try a mismatched or a polka-dotted pair, or even pastel-colored or wiggly-shaped hairpins!
Look as prim and proper as Heart Evangelista by securing your hair with a headband. Thick, thin, or padded, this classic accessory adds polish to any ‘do instantly.
How to make it yours: Choose a style that matches your personality. How about a headband with sparkles and glitter to make your inner child happy? Or let your playful streak show with a sporty and stripey style.
If all else fails, wear a hat. You can hide your messy-hair-don’t-care underneath and just go about your day.
How to make it yours: You don’t need a designer headpiece to make a statement. Whether it’s a clean and minimalist bowler hat or traffic-stopping headwear, the trick is to choose a style and fit that suits you.
This hairstyle spells effortless, and kudos to Heart for being such a pro at it. Go for this style to tone down an otherwise OTT look.
How to make it yours: Part your hair slightly to the side for a softer vibe. Let a few strands from each side loose, framing your face. You can try blow-drying or curling the loose strands outwards for an easy, breezy look.
One of Heart’s trending hair moments is all thanks to her fun choice of accessories. It’s the ultimate low-effort, high-impact way to make a statement.
How to make it yours: You don’t need to get the exact same accessory as Heart’s. Try rummaging through your mom’s drawer or vintage shops for unique and unusual hair clips.
Here’s a secret: This classic updo gives your face a lift. It draws the gaze upwards, creating the illusion of sharper, more defined features. Add a few loose strands on the side for a soft edge.
How to make it yours: Tie a bow over the elastic to add a dainty detail. Then, using a flat iron, curl the ends of your hair outward to make it look bouncy and well-kempt.
Keep frizz at bay with Cream Silk Triple Keratin Ultimate Straight Serum Conditioner. Its keratin-infused formula helps soften hair, revive dry locks, and restore dull tresses.
Bring out your edgy side with a hairstyle made for the streets of fashion week and the FROW.
How to make it yours: Part your hair in the middle and braid them on both sides. Then, gather them all in a low ponytail. Feeling extra playful? Instead of a ponytail, try low pigtails or space buns.
