We at Allure are big fans of celebrities who genuinely love the process of doing hair, makeup, and nails — and Taraji P. Henson fits that bill. Not only does the actor and BET Awards host have her own hair-care line, she also became quite good at nail art during COVID lockdowns.
It's no surprise that Henson goes all out for award shows, especially during the July 26 red carpet. Her multiple quick changes mean we get to gaze upon many different looks, a fact that we'll happily take. Each one was different, but there was a pleasantly surprising consistency: multiple outfits showed off Henson's hip tattoos. And we love to see it.
Henson worked with hairstylist Tym Wallace and makeup artist Saisha Beecham for the evening, and the team gave us no shortage of breathtaking beauty moments. See them all right here on Allure.
