Met Gala 2025 Afro Hair Trend

This year&#x27;s Met Gala has got to be one of the most remarkable yet. With its theme &quot;Superfine: Tailoring Black Style&quot;, the tailoring and dandy style statements were expected. The A-list celebrities truly delivered, with unique interpretations of the theme seen in impeccable silhouettes, creative suits and blazers, the finest hats, ties, jewelry, and other accessories. <div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/metro-style/beauty/2025/5/6/-metrobeautywatch-best-beauty-looks-at-the-met-gala-2025-1255" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">READ: The Best Beauty Looks at the Met Gala 2025</a></div>But we beauty girls had to sit up and pay attention to one hair trend that truly ruled the night: larger than life hairstyles that brought amazing energy to the black dandy statements.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1746510975062Body Met Gala Hair Trends.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/>Clockwise: Doechii, Lauryn Hill, Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B, Tessa Thompson, Lizzo, Doja Cat | Photos <a href="https://www.instagram.com/justjared" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@justjared</a>and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/metgalaofficial_" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@metgalaofficial_</a>A-listers like rapper Doechii showed up in a Louis Vuitton number capped off with an afro &#x27;do, as did music icon Lauryn Hill. Another lady who went all out on the afro train is singer Doja Cat, who did a playful take on the look with layers of different colored hair. Another rapper who understood the assignment and embraced her natural hair texture was Cardi B, who rocked an &#x27;80s Diana Ross-inspired look. Lizzo, on the other hand, rocked her tuxedo-inspired gown by complementing it with platinum blonde locks, volumized to perfection. Rapper Megan Thee Stallion not only rocked her bejeweled gown, she did so by slaying the carpet as a redhead, styled into an oversized updo with &quot;levels&quot;, and a thick ponytail that cascaded down her back. Last but definitely not least was actress Tessa Thompson, who slayed in a meticulously shaped voluminous bob under a top hat.</div>Thank you, ladies, for these hair moments that will go down in Met Gala history.
