The BAFTA Award for Best Make Up and Hair is a film award presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) at the annual British Academy Film Awards, in recognition of make-up artists and hairstylists who have delivered outstanding makeup and hairstyling in a film.
BAFTA is a British organisation that hosts annual awards shows for film, television, and video games (and formerly also for children's film and television). Since 1982, selected make-up artists and hairstylists have been awarded with the BAFTA award for Best Make Up and Hair at an annual ceremony.
In the following lists, the titles and names in bold with a gold background are the winners and recipients respectively; those not in bold are the nominees. The years given are those in which the films under consideration were released, not the year of the ceremony, which always takes place the following year.
