With exposed roots popping up on even the most glamorous of Cannes red carpets, it was only a matter of time before the laissez-faire statement trickled down to the streets. And yesterday in Los Angeles, new mom Jessica Alba stepped out for a date night with husband Cash Warren, her tousled set of sun-kissed waves taking on a strategically low-maintenance slant that was well worth a double take.

While many women opt out of dying their hair while pregnant, Alba seems to be making a conscious decision to display her darker strands—even now that she s post pregnancy. The Los Angeles-based actress, who gave birth to son Hayes earlier this year, is embracing the no-fuss versatile style by letting her natural dark-chocolate lengths grow out to eye-level, making a good case for skipping that next salon appointment.

The regrowth was enhanced by the mother of three s long lengths, that trademark honey-dyed hue taking an ombre turn towards her collarbone, and fresh faced glow, thanks to the help of her brand s depuffing eye cream, no doubt. Is Alba s cool new take on the hands-off style a new summer trend in the making? Time will only tell.
