The makeup on the red carpet at the 2019 Billboard Music Awards, at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, was understated and clean. Even stars like Cardi B, Yung Miami, and Saweetie, who are known for sporting colored hair and over the top looks for special events, kept their glam simple.

One thing’s for sure, baby hair is still on trend. It seemed no matter the style — ponytail, waves, braids, or straight — the ladies got their baby hair popping.
