Of course, with a new year comes the start of new trends beginning to bubble up — and what better way to debut some fresh and interesting choices than at the Grammys?
Below, find the best hair and makeup looks from the evening that are sure to make it onto your glam mood board.
1Sabrina Carpenter’s Curled French Twist
Carpenter, who wore a cheeky (pun intended) blue feathered gown, paired her soft glam with a voluminous, curly updo. Very Marilyn Monroe coded.
2Victoria Monet’s Ethereal Shadow
Monet gave ocean goddess in a glittery seafoam green eye shadow paired with a shiny neutral lip (Armani beauty’s Prisma Glass Lip Gloss in shade 07). Her high pony helped create a super lifted and defined look that’s simply everything.
3Charli XCX’s 365 Party Girl Glam
With a sharp contour and sculpted eyebrows, Charli went for a bold and edgy pairing (brat summer forever). Alongside sultry, smoked-out eyes she sported a signature nude lip using Spike Valentino Buttery Matte Lip Color in 123R Spike.
4Miley Cyrus’ Chunky Highlights
Cyrus brought Y2K back with her chunky highlights and sleek straight hairstyle. The singer’s choppy look featured the front layers near her face cut to chin length that created mega dimension. Bob Recine, the artist behind her hairstyle, locked in her ’do with the NEXXUS Repair & Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil to give strands an airy movement.
5Willow Smith’s Dimensional Liner
Smith’s glam and hair combo is truly delicious. Her dark liner and gloss (the Rouge Dior Contour in #510 Wild Brown and Dior Addict Lip Glow in #020 Mahogany) created the ideal contrast for her lips. Plus, her middle-parted Afro looked immensely chic.
6Beyoncé’s Waist-Grazing Platinum Hair
Cowboy Carter skipped the carpet and made a fashionably late entrance just in time to receive the award for Best Country Album, where she looked absolutely next-level. Her long hair reached down to her waist, which gave the most fab amount of drama and allure. As for glam? She leaned into neutral bronzed hues with a glittery shadow placed on her lids.
7Chappell Roan’s Big Bold Curls
Roan loves experimenting with makeup and hair, and this year’s Grammys proved no different. Hairstylist Dom Forletta amped up the “Pink Pony Club” singer’s locks by spraying Amika’s perk up dry shampoo directly at the roots before adding in Bellami’s Silk Seam Clip-In hair extensions in Cinnamon Mocha.
8Gracie Abrams’ Bridal Chic Veil
Abrams’ signature blunt bob was covered up with the sheer veil of her Chanel dress, bringing all the romance. The white veil served as a stunning contrast to her warm brown eye makeup and dark feathered brows.
9Doechii’s Tiny Microbraids
It’s Doechii’s world, and we’re all just living in it. Hairstylist Malcolm Marquez prepped her braids with Thank God It’s Natural Miracle Styling Ayurvedic Hair & Scalp Oil before creating a mix of braids and finger waves. As for her skin care prep, makeup artist Dee Carrion created a glowy base with The Ordinary’s Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner and the brand’s Natural Moisturizing Factors + PhytoCeramides moisturizer.
10Kali Uchis’ Bombshell Blowout
Uchis brought ’90s glam to the center stage at the 2025 Grammys. The singer’s hair was accompanied by a fitting lip combo of Stila Cosmetics’ Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Sugar Peach and Heaven’s Dew Gel Lip Oil in Stardust.
11Cynthia Erivo’s Brown Tonal Look
Erivo looked utterly radiant with a brown tonal look courtesy of makeup artist Joanna Simkin. She used e.l.f.’s Camo Liquid Bronzer & Contour in shade 10 and the Halo Glow Highlight Beauty Wand in Liquid Gold for her dewy base, plus Perfect 10 Eyeshadow Palette in Keep It Ethereal on her lids alongside a dab of Copper Pop Liquid Glitter Eyeshadow on her brow bone. She completed the look with e.l.f.’s Cream Glide Lip Liner in Dark Cocoa topped with Glow Reviver Lip Oil in Honey Talks.
12Alicia Keys’ Radiant Glow
Alicia Keys let her luminous complexion take center stage. To create this otherworldly glow, her skin was prepped with the Keys Soulcare Let Me Glow Illuminating Serum in Golden Aura before the brand’s It’s Like Skin 2-in-1 Concealer and Tint was applied. The Sheer Flush Cheek Tint in Undeniable was dabbed across her cheekbones along with the Gleam On Highlighting Balm. The singer accentuated her lit-from-within radiance with a bold red lip.
