This year was no different, and some of the hair and beauty moments at the Met Gala left us all awestruck. Let’s explore the highlights with Vidhi Arya from Professional Beauty India.
This year, the theme for the Met Gala was “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.” Celebrating the rich and dandy Black culture, the theme made us all witness elaborate ensembles. But more than that, it also offered the stars a glorious chance to whip up meticulously crafted beauty and hair moments. Some truly brought their A game to the front.
Here are a few hair and beauty moments at the Met Gala that deserve all your attention:
Meghan Thee Stallion
Just pause and look at her hair! Crimson red mane styled into a three-tiered pony and adorned with diamond accents: that’s a work of art right there. This style was Stallion’s homage to French singer Josephine Baker.
ASAP Rocky
When we speak of dandy Black style, can cornrows be forgotten? No, never. And ASAP Rocky did justice to this hairdo that’s truly a cultural heritage. The patterned cornrow braids were the undeniable showstopper of his look.
Dua Lipa
The finger waves paired with that sleek high bun? It’s a hair moment to remember. Dua Lipa’s hairstyle is reminiscent of vintage hairdos that exude glamour and opulence.
Doja Cat
Known for serving unbelievably bold looks, Doja Cat did it again with feline energy, and we’re not complaining! For makeup, she paired pastel blue eyeshadow with ruby red lips, bringing back ’80s glamour. As for the hair, she sported a multi-tiered style, likely inspired by an afro.
Shacarri Richardson
Let’s talk about nail art for a moment because Richardson completely distracted us with her intricate manicure. Her 3D nail art featured floral motifs, vintage accents, and vibrant hues!
Doechii
Her afro hair nailed the brief. Rooted in culture and heritage, this hairdo was a powerful fashion statement. Beyond the hair, her glossy ombre lips were show-stealers. But the real deal? The faux LV monogram on her cheeks!
Cardy B
The ombré green eyeshadow, that fierce cat-wing liner, and a crystal: that’s the recipe for stellar eye makeup. Cardi B’s hair was also a noteworthy example of classic fashion. The deep side-parted, almost triangular style was an ode to voluminous hair and natural textures.
