Best Special Make-up Effects

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice PP
Deadpool & Wolverine Nil
A Different Man WL TL
The Deliverance Nil
The Substance WL PP TL

Wesley Lovell: The Substance has plenty of the kind of makeup that wins in this category, so I expect it to.
Pete Patrick: This should be an easy win for The Substance with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice a distant second.
Thomas La Tourrette: The Substance should handily win this.

Best Period and/or Character Make-up

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice WL
Deadpool & Wolverine Nil
Gladiator II PP TL
MaXXXine Nil
Wicked WL PP TL

Wesley Lovell: This could go to the likes of Deadpool, Beetlejuice, or Wicked with the latter having a decent shot.
Pete Patrick: Wicked for sure with Gladiaor II a distant runner-up.
Thomas La Tourrette: This feels like it should go to Wicked.

Best Period and/or Character Hair Styling

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice WL PP
Bob Marley: One Love Nil
Gladiator II TL
Shirley Nil
Wicked WL PP TL

Wesley Lovell: Once again, Wicked faces off against Beetlejuice and this one might be a little closer.
Pete Patrick: Easily Wicked with Beetlejuice Beeltjuice trailing in the voting.
Thomas La Tourrette: This also feels like it should go to Wicked.

Best Contemporary Make-up

The Deliverance Nil
Emilia Pérez WL PP TL
It Ends with Us Nil
Smile 2 Nil
The Substance WL PP TL

Wesley Lovell: While most of the attention for The Substance is in the special effects make-up, the regular makeup has a solid chance of being recognized as well, though Emilia Pérez still might stand a chance.
Pete Patrick: This should be an easy win for The Substance with Emilia Pérez a possible spoiler.
Thomas La Tourrette: The Substance should easily win this.

Best Contemporary Hair Styling

The Deliverance Nil
It Ends with Us Nil
The Last Showgirl WL PP
Megalopolis TL
The Substance WL PP TL

Wesley Lovell: Another win for The Substance with The Last Showgirl and Megalopolis solid contenders for the win as well.
Pete Patrick: The Substance will probably take a back seat to The Last Showgirl on this one.
Thomas La Tourrette: I have only seen two of these films, but Megalopolis seems like one that could have lots of different hair styles in it which could lead to its winning. If not, then The Last Showgirl or The Substance might take it.
