Summary
- Kelsea Ballerini took ibuprofen due to her tight Grammy Awards hairstyle.
- The singer's updo was inspired by her custom ETRO gown's design.
- Ballerini lost best contemporary country album to Jelly Roll but celebrated the nomination.
Country singer Kelsea Ballerini experienced significant discomfort at the Grammy Awards, necessitating ibuprofen due to her tightly pulled updo. Celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton crafted the sculpted hairstyle to complement her custom ETRO gown, drawing inspiration from the garment's pattern.
The elaborate hairstyle was designed to showcase the dress's features while maintaining a youthful edge. Makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan used CoverGirl products to contour Ballerini's face, with the tight hairdo creating a makeshift facelift effect.
Although Ballerini's album 'Patterns' was nominated for best contemporary country album, she lost the award to Jelly Roll. Ballerini expressed that the nomination itself, especially in a new category created by the Recording Academy, felt like a victory, particularly as the album was co-written with female friends and peers.
