The Best Looks at the 2016 American Music Awards

 

A rare instance of rain in Los Angeles wasn’t enough to dampen spirits of the 2016 American Music Awards. Hair and makeup styles were the main focus on the red carpet.

From Gigi Hadid’s brushed-back style echoed in bob form by makeup artist Teyana Taylor — to Chrissy Teigen’s flat-ironed lengths and Halsey’s statement-making cut. New mom Behati Prinsloo brought out her signature tousled waves, while Ciara debuted long, face-framing bangs to accompany her own baby bump.

Though music awards shows tend to bring out the beauty risks, the evening’s makeup was relatively subdued: Selena Gomez made a triumphant return to the spotlight in soft nude shades that emphasized her glowing good health, while Karlie Kloss set off her slick ponytail with a generous dose of highlighter, a heavy coat of mascara. Here, the night’s best beauty looks.
