The best hair and makeup looks at the 2024 Grammys.

On Feb. 4, the music industry’s most beloved artists showed up for the 2024 Grammy Awards, where stars like Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, Victoria Monét, and many more were nominated for their creative work.

The Grammys red carpet is, notoriously, where Hollywood glamour meets a youthfully modern edge, with headline-making looks that often push the boundaries of fashion and beauty — and this year, the world’s fave A-listers didn’t come to play.

Taylor Swift, for one, styled her bangs in a very Reputation-coded way (before announcing her brand new record titled The Tortured Poets Department, dropping on April 19). Doja Cat graced the carpet in what might just be her most revealing gown to date — one that showcased a slew of new (probably temporary) tats. Other stars like Dua Lipa and Tyla kept things natural and subdued with their hair and makeup, allowing their gowns to take centerstage.
