Curls are coming undone on the Grammys red carpet—in a good way. Loose, romantic waves dominated 2026 Grammys hair trends, and this celebrity-loved style is so easy to copy. Consider this your sign to dust off your curling iron and treat yourself to a new texture spray.
While awards season kicked off with some high-level hair trends (see: the parade of expertly sculpted Old Hollywood bobs at the Golden Globes), music’s biggest night ushered in a softer wave for spring. Some of our favorite stars took a page from Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights look book, embracing cascading length, natural-looking texture, and even crimped effects.

Sabrina Carpenter’s loosely pinned updo (which left her curtain bangs and face-framing layers undone, in true Bridgerton style) was pure romance. Celebrity stylist Evanie Frausto created her look using Redken. His pro tip: “I need to add grit before structure so before I gather anything, I go in with Redken Dry Texture Finishing Spray. This is what gives me that airy separation that looks expensive. I spray, comb with my fingers, and let the hair expand, giving it life.”
The singer also took a softer approach with her glam, trading her usual babydoll blush and statement eye makeup for cloud lips, frosted highlighter, and natural-looking lashes.
