On Hannah Montana, you could always expect Miley Stewart to be brunette by day and blonde by night. On the red carpet, you can never know what to expect from Miley Cyrus. The 26-year-old pop star has had a wild style evolution over the nearly 14 years since Hannah Montana first debuted, and her beauty looks have changed just as much as her wardrobe choices. From glitter and hair extensions to pixie cuts and red lips, Cyrus has debuted every color and cut imaginable, and we applaud her for always being willing to take a risk. Let's review how her hair and makeup have evolved over the years, shall we?
A baby-faced Cyrus appeared at one of her first Hannah Montana events with her natural brunette hair in barrel curls and barely-there makeup.
Just a year later, Cyrus embraced a darker hair color and extensions, which she styled in spiral curls. Though she still sported minimal makeup, she did play up her features with a touch of shimmery highlighter.
Cyrus sported a high ponytail long before Ariana Grande did at this Teen Vogue party, which looked even sweeter with long, side-swept bangs. The best part of her look: those cherry red lips.
At the 2007 AMAs, Cyrus debuted Kelly Clarkson-esque chunky blonde highlights in her flat-ironed hair, completing the look with thick black eyeliner and clear lipgloss.
Cyrus brought her longest extensions, darkest hair shade, and thinnest brows yet to the 2008 Grammys, where she complemented her hair with nude lipstick and smokey blue eye makeup.
At the 2008 Oscars, Cyrus looked adorably polished with chestnut hair, elegant side-parted updo, rosy cheeks, glittery cheekbones, and subtle lip color.
Cyrus switched it up again at this 2008 benefit with eyebrow-grazing bangs, honey-blonde highlights, and kohl-rimmed eyes.
For the 2009 MTV Movie Awards, Cyrus decided on a chic, low pony with tons of cascading curls and face-framing side bangs. To complete the look, she donned dark liner and clear gloss.
At the 2010 Grammys, Cyrus debuted a new pretty auburn hair color, which she wore in loose waves. She completed the look with majorly bronzed cheeks, dramatic eye makeup, and nude lips.
Cyrus said goodbye to her hair extensions for the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards, where she brought her A-game with shoulder-length copper curls, jet-black liner, and smokey purple shadow.
The extensions were back for the 2010 MTV Europe Music Awards, where Cyrus sported bright blonde waves and dark roots with shimmery brown shadow.
At the first-ever American Giving Awards, Cyrus arrived with a sleek extra-long pony, which dramatically transitioned from deep brown at the roots to platinum at the tips. To complete the look, she added plenty of highlighter and slightly thicker brows.
Cyrus brought old Hollywood glamour to the AIDS Foundation Oscar Viewing party with a bold cat eye, bright red lips, defined brows, and a curled ombré faux bob.
Perhaps Cyrus's most dramatic beauty debut, this platinum blonde double-undercut — which was teased into a faux-hawk — turned heads at the 2012 VMAs. She kept her makeup subtle with a sweep of pink shadow and baby pink lips.
Cyrus made her cheekbones pop with this tousled platinum-blonde pixie cut and side-swept bangs at the Seacrest Studios debut, especially when she added a bright red lip color and soft purple eyeshadow.
Cyrus took the 2013 Met Gala's punk theme seriously with a gravity-defying platinum spiked 'do, which she paired with surprisingly minimal eye makeup and crimson lips.
This two-tone pixie cut that Cyrus sported at the Britney: Piece of Me opening was made extra-cool with a deep side part and voluminous side bangs. As always, Cyrus brought her cherry-red pout and chunky mascara.
To amp up her spiky platinum pixie cut at the 2014 amfAR Gala, Cyrus went dramatic with a gray shadowy cat eye, chunky mascara, and a glossy nude lip.
At 2015's Met Gala, Cyrus arrived with a slicked-back bob dyed an icy-blue color for the night, which she paired with bronzer and barely-there eye makeup.
Cyrus's wild look for the 2015 VMAs included long braided extensions, a sky-high pony, and electric-blue eyeliner.
Cyrus grew out her pixie cut for this 2015 anniversary event, where she wore her shoulder-length ombré 'do slicked back with a deep side part, completing the look with some fun sparkles at the roots and soft pink eyeshadow.
Cyrus was a little bit country at The Elvis Duran show in 2017, where she wore a boho hat over her bleached-out beach waves and minimal makeup.
At the 2018 Grammys, Cyrus wore her golden hair in vintage waves and very little makeup, save for some powder-pink blush and a sweep of shimmery shadow on her lids.
For the 2018 Vanity Fair Oscar Party, Cyrus brought back her signature loose waves with this pretty curled bob, and she kept her makeup subtle save for her bright red lip color.
At the Avenger: Endgame premiere, Cyrus channeled Hannah Montana with pin-straight eyebrow-grazing bangs and soft blonde barrel curls.
One of Cyrus's latest looks included choppy bangs, defined brows, blue winged shadow, and her now-signature crimped wet hair.
