Sabrina Carpenter's Fringe (Iconic)
If you didn't expect this at the top of our lists, we don't know for you.
The most iconic look of the 2025 award season has got to go to our fave girlie with the fringe, Sabrina Carpenter.
Sabrina Carpenter hairstyles are glamorous, voluminous , and seriously have no business being so extra. But we're not complaining; they're an absolute 10 from us.
The singer has managed to bring the same energy to the Brits this year, which has earned her a lottttt of attention on socials.
If you want that same level of admiration, here's how to get the look...
How to Get the Look
To get the iconic bangs that you see above, we can't recommend our RiRi X Sabrina Clip-In Fringe enough. It'll literally give you the look in about 5 seconds. Simply clip it in and go .
Of course, you can manipulate and style it until you reach your desired results, but that's easy.
Who said you can't experiment with bangs without having to permanently alter your hair? Not us.
If you want to get the big bouncy blow-out that Sabrina is so well known for, try out our 24" Bouncy Wave Half Head Extension. You won't even know what volume is until you get one of these babies.
Ariana Grande's Short 'n' Sweet Pony
Often known for her long, straight, wrap-around ponytail, Ariana Grande recently switched up her look and has gone for something a little more cutesy.
When we say recently, we obviously mean pre-Wicked.
Nevertheless, Ariana Grande hairstyles will always be a firm fave of ours, and the proof is in her look at the SAG Awards.
Even though it's short, the ponytail is not here to play— the thickness is insane , and the flick detail is just *chef's kiss*.
She's kept the wrap-around look from the old days, and we love that from her. Nothing gives volume like it.
How to Get the Look
There's only one thing that you'll need to recreate this beautiful look, and, of course, that's the Mini RiRi.
This is one of our best-selling products and a firm fave of ours and our RiRi girlies. The volume you'll get is unmatched, not to mention the gorgeous flick detail at the ends.
True Ariana vibes.
With easy application and secure design, this look will take minutes to achieve and last you day and night (no sleeping in it, though!).
Demi Moore's Long Locks
Demi Moore, the woman that you are. She never ages, right? This look from the Oscars is literally blinding. And her hair is just the icing on the cake.
You can't go wrong with a classic down, long, and curly moment, especially when the colour is so dark and gorgeous.
How does she manage to maintain her facial structure and not look like she's totally drowning in hair? That would be the volume, ladies. Let us tell you how it's done.
How to Get the Look
For this glam look, we'd recommend our Deluxe 20" Curly Clip-In or our 24" Curly Half-Head Piece.
Both will give you that amazing volume and thickness Demi has, it just depends on how long you want to take it.
If you have dark hair like Demi and want to precisely colour-match your extensions, check out our diverse colour chart or take advantage of our free colour-match service!
All you need to do is send us a pic of your natural hair in natural light, and we'll do the rest of the work for you. Your perfect match awaits; contact us for yours below!
Marissa Bode's High Bun & Bangs Combo
Another one of the Wicked ladies is Marissa Bode, and her chic high bun and thick curtain bangs. (Side note—the dress's nod to the ruby red slippers is just stunning).
This hairstyle is a real classic and is the perfect look for such a prestigious award ceremony like the Oscars. It's glamorous, simple, and classy —everything you want from a red-carpet hairstyle.
This would be the perfect look to recreate for events like weddings, family dinners, and other important events. But how do you get the look?
How to Get the Look
It's actually pretty easy to create a look like this, but you will need a few sets of our RiRi's (what a shame!).
Our first recommendation is the Messy Bun Scrunchie. And while we love this extension for messy looks (duh), if you tie another hair band around it, bunching up a few pieces of hair, you can create a more uniform bun like Marissa's.
To create the thick curtain bangs, you'll, of course, need our RiRi X Sabrina Clip-In Fringe and manipulate it into solid curtain bangs.
To make the side pieces even thicker, you might want to include some of your natural hair by bunching some forward and clipping the ends behind your ear.
See what works for you, but this look might require a lil trial and error. But we think it's worth it for this look.
H.E.R.'s Mermaid Waves
We're obsessed with mermaid waves here at RiRi, so when we saw H.E.R's red carpet look, it obvs had to be included in our round-up.
The length, the middle part, and the chocolate caramel-y colour are literally everything.
There's something about a super long hairstyle that provides an element of modernity, and a little bit of that never hurt anyone.
How to Get the Look
The possibilities are literally endless with hair extensions, so of course, we have something for you to create mermaid waves with.
Introducing our Summer Beach Waves 3-Piece Clip-In Hair Extensions. She is the moment.
A three-piece extension set ensures volume at every level, so these will do wonders if you have thin and limp hair.
Not to mention the pre-styled nature of these extensions. You don't need to do anything other than clip them in evenly and go.
H.E.R. would be proud. We know it.
Mindy Kaling's Classic Low Pony
How can you go wrong with a classic low pony? This look screams elegance and class, and we love the wavy texture.
Mindy looks stunning in her Oscars glam, and although she didn't win, her look is absolutely killer.
A low pony is super versatile; you could wear it to an important event (clearly), for a cute day out with the girls, or even as a quick and easy hairstyle to run errands in.
Looks that you can dress up or down are winners in our books, that's for sure.
How to Get the Look
There are two ways to get this look. First of all, you could use our Brushed Out 22" Wave Clip-In Extensions to create the low pony.
A low pony is much easier to achieve with weft extensions than a high pony because there's minimal risk the clips would be on show. You'd be pretty safe and secure knowing your beauty secrets aren't about to be on show.
Or, you could go in with our 24" Clip-In Hollywood Wave Ponytail Extension piece to make the look even easier to achieve.
Simply tie your natural hair into a ponytail and clip your pony piece on top to create a fuller, bouncier, gorgeous, wavy pony in seconds.
Strm Reid's High Pony With 20's Kiss Curl
Last but, of course, not least, we've got Storm Reid with her high-flick ponytail and super cute kiss curl. We're just obsessed with this look. That's all.
No, but seriously, you can't go wrong with a high pony that looks so neat like this one. And 1920s kiss curl detail ties the whole vibe together.
This look is great if you want to add a lil somethin somethin to your ponytails to make them really pop.
How to Get the Look
For this look, we recommend one of our wrap-around ponytails in a length that you love. Just make sure it's one of our flick styles , so you can fully recreate Storm's look.
Then, for the star of the show, aka the kiss curl, you simply need to coat a strand of hair in styling gel (make sure it's an extreme hold one!) and make the shape with your fingers as best you can.
Obviously, if you have short bangs, this will be much easier to create.
As you mould the shape, do so on your forehead so it adheres securely to your skin.
You could try drying it down with a hairdryer and hitting it with hairspray for extra hold.
