The nominees across Hair, Grooming, Makeup, Photography, and Styling represent the artists who set the visual language of today’s red carpets, editorials, and on-screen storytelling—the creative forces whose work shapes what the world sees, follows, and wears. Three nominees specializing in red carpet and editorial work compete in categories named after the current year’s Lifetime Achievement Award honorees. To ensure a broad and inclusive celebration of skill, artistry, and diversity, the HBAs recognize two hairstyling and two makeup categories.
The honorees were previously announced. Winners in each nominee category will be revealed during the black-tie dinner awards ceremony on April 10th.
The evening will unfold under the theme “The Beauty of Spring ~ La Beauté du Printemps,” celebrating renewal, creativity, and artistry in bloom. For the ninth consecutive year, the HBAs will continue to spotlight beauty’s role in animal rescue awareness, benefiting Helen Woodward Animal Center.
