If you recall last year's Academy Awards, the stars came to impress in the hair and makeup department, but the 2022 Oscars are shaping up to be even better (as are the gift bags the star-studded nominees will be receiving). With a stacked list of presenters like Rachel Zegler, Jacob Elordi, Jake Gyllenhaal, Serena Williams, and Venus Williams, and attendees from all of the hottest films from the last year, you can expect to be entertained from the minute the ceremony starts.

The 2021 Oscars brought some pretty show-stopping beauty moments. Zendaya looked like a dream in her waist-length beach waves, Margot Robbie debuted shaggy bangs in a brand-new, light brown hair colour, and Viola Davis commanded attention with a dramatic half-up hairstyle. But most notable of all was Halle Berry's shocking A-line microbob haircut with matching microbangs to boot (which later turned out to be a wing, but still, it was shocking nonetheless).

While last year's award show season looked a little different because of the COVID-19 pandemic, this year is turning out to be more of what we're used to. Instead of calling in virtually, our favourite celebrities will be flocking to the red carpet to show off their gorgeous ensembles and matching hair, makeup, and nails in person.

Though the night has just begun, keep scrolling to see the best hair and makeup looks from the 2022 Oscars.
