Mendes debuted a new, short 'do on Instagram and her cheeky hair flip is all you need to see to know that she's enamored with her new chop. The cut came courtesy Giannandrea, Mendes's long-time hairstylist. Mendes added an olive green headband to the look, but fans can get a clear view of the new style and what could be a new color, too. Eva Mendes Expertly Shut Down a Troll Who Told Her She's "Getting Old" Giannandrea shared the same clip on Instagram and gave his followers a little more insight into Mendes's decision to go short, saying that she's a "cool mama." "I was stunned when she asked me to [cut her hair]," he wrote. "And here she’s all chic, a modern designer business woman and cool mama." Mendes completed the look with a blazer from her New York & Co. collection and bold gold hoops.
