2026 Grammys Best Beauty Looks

All of your most-played artists on Spotify have come together at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles for music’s biggest night. While the 68th Annual Grammy Awards honor the year’s biggest songs and albums, the fashion, hair, and makeup moments on the red carpet also hit a high note. With an impressive lineup of performances from Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, and Justin Bieber, the show is living up to its reputation as the most exciting to watch. And of course, the best 2026 Grammys beauty looks match the night’s fun and creative vibe.

Tyla set the tone for the evening with her new long, loose, wavy hairstyle, which she wore in a high side ponytail with a large face-framing section left out that featured a peekaboo accent braid. FKA Twigs’ hair was also all in the details. Her half-up, half-down look featured woven pieces, twists, and spikes. Even Carpenter switched up her signature retro butterfly cut by pulling back her strands into a romantic low curly ponytail with face-framing tendrils left out. And those are just a few of the standout moments of the night.

Ahead, see all of the best celebrity beauty looks from the 2026 Grammys red carpet.
