In director Justin Lin’s hotly awaited new sci-fi flick Star Trek Beyond, actress Zoe Saldana makes a splash as the seductive Lieutenant Uhura. The 38-year-old star is a gorgeous sight in the film, which officially opens in theatres today. As Uhura, Saldana graces the silver screen with her sleek dark locks, which are styled into a half up and half down straight hairstyle. If you’re looking for an easy way to keep your long tresses under control as we face sizzling summer temperatures, here’s how to get a similar hairdo now.

1) Start by smoothing your tresses and teasing your hair: For your first step, apply a smoothing cream to your straight locks. Next, divide a section of hair from the front of your head and pull this section back. Use a wide-toothed comb to carefully backcomb your locks and create overall volume.

2) Pull back a thin segment of hair from either side of your visage: Next, create a half-up hairstyle by pulling thin segments of hair back into a slight bouffant. Spritz this section with a quality finishing spray, in order to maintain your style.

3) Create a half ponytail and adjust any flyaway strands: For a finishing touch, use an elastic band to hold your half up ponytail style in place. Smooth any unwanted frizzy pieces, use a comb to adjust the strands in your pony and enjoy your new look.
