The red carpet at the BET Awards never fails to serve up the best beauty inspiration and the 2024 installment was no exception. Taraji P. Henson was back for another year of hosting duties looking like a golden goddess with blonde highlights and a metallic, molten gold manicure, and stars like Victoria Monét, Ice Spice, and Megan Thee Stallion were slated to perform—a stacked lineup if we’ve ever seen one!
Red carpets—or in this case, a bright blue carpet—are a great indicator of the biggest and best beauty trends of the current moment and those yet to come, and the BET Awards delivered in a big way, with icons like Tia Mowry and Niecy Nash-Betts and up-and-coming talents like Tanner Adell showing off braids, waves, platinum blonde hues, and more.
Ahead, see the best hair, makeup, and manicure moments from the 2024 BET Awards.
