Goddess glam and boho hair dominated the 2026 Grammy Awards red carpet on Sunday night in Los Angeles, where singer-songwriters, producers and industry legends gathered to honor the standout year in music.
From Sabrina Carpenter to FKA Twigs, artists across all genres let their beauty aesthetics epitomize their idiosyncratic personas outside the Crypto.com Arena, donning fiery hair colors and skin-first makeup. While rising pop star Zara Larsson, a first-time nominee, relied on ethereal glam and mermaid hair, Tyla styled a tousled updo with falling braids and a bronzy glow. And at the same time, Doechii reimagined the ’80s palm tree hairdo, Hailey Bieber stayed true to her signature aesthetic — glazed skin, slicked hair, burgundy-blushed lips and all.
Here, WWD takes a look at the best hair and makeup moments from the 68th annual ceremony.
