Sun-kissed and starry eyed, Jessica Alba graces the red carpet of the 30th Annual Independent School Alliance for Minority Affairs Impact Awards Dinner. Alba, an actress, dancer, wife, mother of two and founder of the Honest Company wore a modest black and white ensemble.
 
Jessica, much like her company, takes a more natural approach to things in life (from her minimalistic make up to the products she uses in her hair). She uses a bronzer and shimmer for her highlight and contouring make up routine while she proves that the oh-so popular ombre hair color technique can be pulled off on both long and short hairstyles, such as her bob, seen here.
 
The key to a successful ombre hair color, is subtleness. Notice that some of the blonde strands faintly begin near her eyes and gradually becomes more and more as it progresses down?

To steal Jessica's sun-kissed style, begin cleansing the hair with the Honest Company's shampoo (Jessica swears by it). Next, part the hair in the crown area and apply a root boot spray to the parted section and rub in. Do this for two sections on each side and two in the crown area, for maximum volume.
 
Begin to blow dry the roots up off the scalp; once the hair is 80% dry, section the hair from top to bottom. Flip hair around the round brush and finish drying. Once the top section is reached, round brush under. Now you have an Honest to goodness sassy style!
