In what has largely been acknowledged as a laudable change, the Film Academy has announced hairstyles now will be eligible for the much coveted Oscars. This could give rise to some interesting times, and signify and entirely new wave in fashion and the hairstyle industry with repercussions around the world. You will probably see various celebrities sporting hairstyles in movies, which will be abundantly copied, and perhaps a lot of genres which could only toy around with special effects can now play with hairstyles and makeup too.
The award will now be called the Makeup and Hairstyle Award which will first be awarded at the 85th Academy Awards on February 24, 2013 at the Dolby Theater. According to the eligibility criteria, all hairstylists will have to provide the committee with detailed descriptions of all methods involved in their creation, and all artistes responsible. Two statues will be given for this award, except on rare occasions when it may exceed to three.
