Emmy Award Show 2014 - Best Makeup, Hair Looks

Begin Slideshow

We don't like to play favorites, but the Emmys red carpet may be our most beloved of all awards season red carpets. Why? Because, our favorite TV actors and actresses don't hold back on their beauty looks. And, this year's showing was no different.

Hair and makeup ran the gamut at the Emmys last night. Lena Dunham took the opportunity to show us the finer points of bowl-cut styling. Natalie Dormer strategically hid her undercut beneath a mass of bombshell curls. Kate Mara showed off not one, but two (!) recent hair changes. Needless to say, it was a feast for the eyes — and a delicious one at that.

But, in case you missed it, we rounded up 17 of our favorite looks from last night's red carpet. Click through to see them all, and then come back and tell us which of TV's finest won your vote for best hair and makeup.
