These Hair and Makeup Looks at the BET Awards Deserved Their Own Trophies

If celebrities do nothing else, they'll pull out all the stops for just about any award show, even a slightly socially distanced one like this year's BET Awards. The show aired live from Los Angeles on Sunday night, and on top of all the showstopping fashions that were present throughout the show, the red carpet was ripe with all kinds of stunning hair and makeup looks from most of those in attendance.

Ciara, for example, showed up with a sexy blond lob that was styled in a wet and wavy look, while Andra Day stunned with her gorgeous bohemian twists. Of course, the looks didn't just stop there, and there were plenty of others who have earned a spot on the list of styles I'll be sprinting to show my hairstylist. Take a look at some of the best hair and makeup from the 2021 BET Awards ahead.
