Singer and Actress Halle Bailey is having her best year yet. The 23-year-old made headlines when she was cast as Ariel in the live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid, which opens in theaters tomorrow. She also stars in The Color Purple remake coming later this year. Needless to say, this is Halle’s time to shine. And she’s been doing so off camera as well by stealing the spotlight all season on every red carpet from the Oscars to The Met Gala. As to be expected, her glam team did not disappoint.
Aside from her stunning makeup looks, one thing about Halle is that she loves to change up her hair. From dyeing her locks red for The Little Mermaid to rocking hip-length box braids for a red carpet, Halle shows how truly versatile hair can be. And we’re inspired.
