Whether it’s dominating the music charts or making headlines with her new marriage, Ariana Grande has established herself as a major force in fashion, entertainment, and pop culture. Known for her soulful voice and stylish fashion sense, the singer is known for her signature flawless looks – remember those iconic moments at the Met Gala? 

From her signature ponytail to graphic liner, the singer regularly experiments with new beauty looks while remaining true to her aesthetic. Here are 10 of her most memorable beauty moments.

MTV Video Music Awards 2010

Before Ariana was known for her famous ponytail, she rocked fiery red locks throughout the early 2010s as Cat Valentine on Nickelodeon ‘s “Victorious . ” Although she’s since ditched the color in favor of more natural hues, it’s still a signature look that’s made a mark on the singer’s career.

At the VMAs, the singer opted for her signature crimped hairstyle, which perfectly matched her neutral makeup and black outfit.

“March For Our Lives” performance

When performing at the student-led March For Our Lives protest in support of gun control legislation, the singer sported platinum blonde hair in a low ponytail, a departure from her usual dark brown updo, but still a familiar look thanks to her favorite oversized sweater.

For the event, which is considered the annual “Oscars of fashion,” Grande donned an elaborate Vera Wang gown inspired by the Sistine Chapel. The singer’s voluminous beige hair bow perfectly complemented her natural beauty and made for a memorable moment at the event.

Upon its release, “God is a Woman” was an instant hit both lyrically and visually.
