Eva Longoria’s ‘expensive blowout’ is the most perfect hairstyle for summer occasions
This classic, volumised look is the inspiration we need…


Known for her classic style, Eva Longoria just combined a loose wave with an expensive-looking blowout - and we’re adding it straight to our Pinterest boards…
We’ve seen plenty of 2025 hair trends taking over our social media feeds, from feathered cuts to barely-there waves and glossy and natural looks. Still, there’s one look we come back to again and again. Nothing beats a classic, salon-worthy blow dry - and Eva Longoria has shown us precisely how to style the look for summer.
Setting trends at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, Longoria debuted her latest hairstyle, with a side-part and silky shine that had us planning our next summer occasion hairstyle.
Why We’re Loving Eva Longoria’s 'Expensive Blowout'
Walking onto the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday, 17th May, Eva Longoria was photographed attending the La Môme 10 year anniversary dinner. And whilst her asymmetric dress was perfectly chic, it was her effortless yet expensive blowout that got our attention.
Moving away from her signature mid-length hair, Eva’s glossy copper-brunette locks were styled with a voluminous, silky blow-dry. With a soft curl throughout the lengths of her hair, this look has the perfect lived-in effect. The LA hair stylist and Vogue columnist responsible for the look, Dimitris Giannetos, coined this 'do the 'expensive Blowout' and we couldn't agree more.

Recreate Eva Longoria’s ‘Expensive Blowout’
If you’re hoping to recreate the look this summer, luckily, Dimitris opened up about his standout product for finishing the style, L’Oreal Paris Elnett Unfragranced Strong Hold Hairspray.
Sadly, Dimitris didn’t post the rest of the products he used, so we’ve done our research instead. Starting with glossy, silky hair is essential to this look, so be sure to stock up on a good quality shine-boosting shampoo and conditioner, like our pick from Wella.
