Is it just us, or did time really fly between last year’s Golden Globes<\/strong> and this year’s? We’re still not over the debut of Emma Stone’s pixie cut, which has since grown out into a gorgeous bob. But as much as we’re still extracting inspo from last January’s ceremony, we’ve been so ready for all of the best looks of this<\/em> year’s Golden Globes\u2014the more-or-less official kick-off of the 2026 award show season.<\/p>\n

With nominees like Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts, Cynthia Erivo, Kate Hudson, Amanda Seyfried, Ariana Grande, Elle Fanning, Teyana Taylor, Emily Blunt, Ayo Edebiri, Selena Gomez, Jenna Ortega, and\u2014yes\u2014Emma Stone, it was inevitable that the beauty looks would be both abundant and unforgettable, much like the movie and TV performances that earned them their accolades.<\/p>\n

Here are our favorite 2026 Golden Globes hair, makeup, and nail looks that will be inspiring the way we get ready all year long.<\/p>\n

Selena Gomez<\/h2>\n

Nominee and newlywed Selena Gomez looked like a vintage vision at the Golden Globes, with no detail left unperfected. Hairstylist Renato Campora used Joico Dream Blowout Glass and JoiWhip Firm Hold Designing Foam to ensure her deeply side-parted bob was styled in precisely sculpted waves that framed a makeup look by Hung Vanngo that’s bound to be copied by anyone who loves a deep lip. The bold red, Vanngo’s own Creamy Matte Lipstick in New York Red, takes center stage, supported by the softest of winged liner and cheekbones generously highlighted with Rare Beauty Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter in Exhilarate. The look was made modern by a simple black manicure\u2014nail artist Tom Bachik used Chanel Le Vernis Longwear Nail Colour in Le Diable en Chanel\u2014the perfect accessory to her feathery black and cream off-the-shoulder dress.<\/p>\n

Amanda Seyfried<\/h2>\n

It seems sculptural hair may be having a big moment at the Golden Globes, with Amanda Seyfried entering the chat in her elegant updo. Her shortest layers have been deeply side-swept into a gorgeous, retro wave\u2014Campora used the GHD Chronos Curve Curling Iron and ensured the shape wouldn’t shift with Joico Heat Hero High Hold + Shine Boosting Finishing Spray\u2014while the bulk of her hair is drawn up into a sophisticated, low bun. Her rosy lips and cheeks keep the look as classic as can be.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Garner<\/h2>\n
\n

We had to do a double-take when we saw Jennifer Garner hit the red carpet because holy \u201890s supermodel.<\/em> Look at the volume and glossiness of that gorgeous hair! The deep side part, with plenty of oomph at the roots\u2014you can thank hairstylist Adir Abergel using Virtue Volumizing Primer and shaping with the Denman D4 Original 9 Row Curl Definer & Styler brush for that\u2014felt Veronica Lake-esque at times as it covered one eye from certain angles. But at no time was her skin not glowing through.<\/p>\n

Ayo Edebiri<\/h2>\n

It’s impossible to get bored with bobs when you see all the fun ways celebrities like Ayo Edebiri are wearing them. Her voluminous, chin-length look is largely swept away from her face, except for a dramatic swoop of bangs that playfully covers one of her brows. Thankfully, it doesn’t obstruct her shimmering plum eye shadow\u2014makeup artist Ernesto Casillas used Chanel Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow in Tiss\u00e9 Rivoli\u2014which plays off the tones of her glossy lip.<\/p>\n

Emma Stone<\/h2>\n
\n

Speaking of bobs, Emma Stone’s is absolutely iconic. The middle part? The the casually flippy ends? The way you can picture exactly how it would move on a windy day? Too good\u2014and honestly, almost too easy to achieve even if you don’t have hairstylist Mara Roszak in your contacts, thanks to R\u014cZ Air Thickening Spray, which gave Stone’s hair so much body. And just like her hair, Stone’s makeup is fresh and versatile, with a light hand that works for the red carpet and everyday outings alike.<\/p>\n

Jenna Ortega<\/h2>\n

If you told us Jenna Ortega was going to help usher crimped hair back into trendiness, we would’ve said, \u201cActually, yeah, that seems feasible.\u201d Her perfectly imperfect, loose, low updo was made especially interesting with a mix of textures, including those \u201880s-associated little ridges\u2014but in a soft way. To achieve the look, hairstylist Cesar Deleon Ramirez braided random sections around Ortega’s head, sprayed each one with Rizos Curls Alcohol-Free Hair Spray, then flat-ironed them and let them cool and set. \u201cOnce they cooled, I unbraided each section to create a light crimped texture for a bit of a Victorian vibe.\u201d Her makeup was also quite soft, with a muted brown lip\u2014makeup artist Melanie Inglessis used a combination of Dior Rouge Dior Contour in #229 Rose Spice, Rouge Dior On Stage in #390 Redwood Star, and Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil in #081 Latte\u2014barely any eyeliner, and what\u2019s become her signature bleached brows.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Lawrence<\/h2>\n
\n

Should you ever find yourself wondering what it might look like if Venus, the Roman goddess of love, got bangs, look no further than Jennifer Lawrence at the Golden Globes. Her entire look was oozing with romance in the most modern way, including free-flowing, long layers styled by Gregory Russell, and what we have to admit is maybe the most perfect date-night makeup inspo we’ve ever seen. (Hat tip to makeup artist Georgie Eisdell.) We can’t wait to copy that smoky shadow\u2014achieved with the Dior 5 Couleurs palette\u2014for Valentine’s Day.<\/p>\n

Lisa<\/h2>\n

Lisa stepped onto the red carpet and seemingly out of a fairytale, wearing a sheer, black gown that reads witchy forest nymph in the most fabulous way. Her hair continues to tell that fantastical story with Rapunzel-like length, the loosest waves, and casually wispy bangs. Her nails complete the magical look with silver chrome on a clear, glassy set, created by nail artist Juan Alvear with Apr\u00e9s Gel-X Short Natural Almond Tips.<\/p>\n

Julia Roberts<\/h2>\n
\n

Some signature looks still take our breath away, no matter how many times we see it, and yes, we’re talking specifically about Julia Roberts. Chronically gorgeous in a subtle smoky eye sculpted by makeup artist Genevieve Herr using the Lanc\u00f4me Hypn\u00f4se 5-Color Eyeshadow Palette and peachy-nude lips\u2014Lanc\u00f4me L\u2019Absolu Rouge Intimatte Soft Matte Lipstick in 215 First Kiss\u2014she brought her rooty, strawberry blonde to the Golden Globes, styled in her usual but never boring voluminously middle-parted waves. And we hope her classic red manicure proves to anyone with less-than-long nails that, yes, it’s cool to wear a bold color on shorties like hers.<\/p>\n

Ariana Grande<\/h2>\n

It’s been so fun watching Ariana Grande’s look slowly, subtly move away from the gorgeous Glinda bubble she’s been gladly trapped in for the last few years. Her transition to darker hair is definitely the most noticeable switch, but she’s also been playing around with how she styles it, too, and her Golden Globes look is the latest twist on her penchant for ponytails. Her hairstylist gave tendril lovers an idea for a whole new way to wear one, tucking Grande’s bangs behind a section of hair left loose not from her hairline but a bit farther back\u2014still elegant, but a bit more playful and creative. She stuck with fresh, light pink tones for her makeup, including R.E.M. Beauty’s On Your Collar Plumping Lip Gloss.<\/p>\n

Teyana Taylor<\/h2>\n
\n

Teyana Taylor’s signature short, swoopy curls never fail to charm\u2014hairstylist Nikki Nelms used SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Define and Shine Styling Gel to shape it to perfection\u2014but she knocked us over even further with her sharp and shimmering eye makeup. Her lids are topped with a silvery sparkle that’s also wedged between precisely drawn black wings along both her upper and lower lashes. Her lips shine, too, with an ombr\u00e9 look in tawny brown hues, an effect created by makeup artist Bella Mayven with Charlotte Tilbury’s Lip Cheat pencil in Foxy Brown and Big Lip Plumpgasm gloss in Nudegasm Diamonds.<\/p>\n

Tessa Thompson<\/h2>\n

Tessa Thompson, nominated for her performance in Hedda<\/em>, went full mermaid with her metallic, beaded, scale-like dress, and the theme extended to her shiny, long waves so glossy that it’s a borderline wet look. \u201cOnce the hair was dry, I used a wave iron to create texture,” hairstylist Lacy Redway says. “To finish, I used the SheaMoisture Bond Repair Amla Oil to break up the waves and create a more natural finish and shine.\u201d Makeup artist Alex Babsky kept her makeup super soft, with her winged eyes as the focal point. He defined the upper lash line with Sisley Paris Phyto-Khol Perfect in Shade N\u00b01 Black and layered it with Ligne Noire Eyeliner.<\/p>\n

Audrey Nuna<\/h2>\n
\n
\"Audrey<\/span><\/div>\n

If you thought Audrey Nuna’s Critics’ Choice Awards look was bold and beautiful\u2014well, she was just getting started. The KPop Demon Hunters<\/em> star couldn’t hide incredible makeup look behind her veil: black lips, icy-pink cheeks, and perhaps the glowiest skin of the night. The veil seamlessly transitions into sculptural braids, and the almost mythical look was topped off with perfectly clear glass tips over her natural nails.<\/p>\n

Brittany Snow<\/h2>\n

If you’ve ever labored under the delusion that a loose ponytail can’t look formal, take a look at Brittany Snow and be enlightened. She wore her golden blonde hair in the lowest possible pony\u2014so low, in fact, that her middle-parted tendrils (which hairstylist Glen Oropeza made sure stayed smooth with K\u00e9rastase Gloss Absolu Glaze Drops) reached well beyond her shoulders. Almost as long: her incredibly long lashes, which offset her glossy, rosy lips.<\/p>\n
