Meghan Thee Stallion looked absolutely stunning as she stepped out on the red carpet at this year’s Academy Awards.

Her black hair was in a sleeked back bun with baby hairspray, which gave off just enough texture to make it look interesting but not too much.

9. VANESSA HUDGENS

The inspiration for Hudgens’s look came from a classic Hollywood icon: Audrey Hepburn.

“We went with a twisted updo as an homage to classic Hollywood and Vanessa’s modern style,” Hudgens’ hairstylist Danielle Priano tells Glamour.

“Collaborating with Vanessa is a dream for any artist—she is always so excited to bring our suggested references and ideas to life.”

10. KRISTEN STEWART

Stewart paired her signature platinum blonde hair with a deep side part and messy waves. Her stylist, Adir Abergel, created this look to reflect Stewart’s effortless, relaxed style.

“I wanted to highlight Kristen’s essence by giving her a relaxed style with lots of volume and movement,” Abergel said in a press release. “The inspiration behind the look was classic 90s styles.”

@mysticftvdu damn she’s gorgeous #kristenstewart #kristenstewartedit #oscar2022 #fypage #zyxcba #foryou #foryoupage #fyp #viral ♬ suono originale – hi 🙂

To create the look, Abergel used the Dyson Supersonic and a paddle brush to dry Stewart’s hair, then he used the Dyson Corrale straightener—a new tool that allows you to create soft curls at the ends of your hair—on the longer layers of Stewart’s hair.
