Now that the little statuettes have been handed out, it's time for the industry's top stylists to weigh in on the looks from the big night. They voted for their favorites, and here are all the winners, from Best Blondie to Best in Show. Not surprisingly, there was some overlap between our hair winners and the real winners that night. Sandra Bullock was just one of the stand-outs and she won big!

Best in Show: Sandra Bullock

"Sandra Bullock looked incredible all around but her subdued, perfectly smoothed rich brunette coif was perfection on it's own, and made the look with her dress. Excellent!"
-Suzie Bond, owner, PERFECT 5th Salon and L'Oreal Professionnel Portfolio Artist

"Gorgeous smooth hair. It was so polished, which is what made it ‘Oscar-Worthy.' I liked the deep side part, and the front combed sleek and tucked behind her ear showcased her face, but was still able to show how beautiful her hair was.
-Ruth Roche, Pureology Brand Ambassador

"That extreme mocha rich brown exudes sultriness and class that's expected on the red carpet for the Oscars."
-Brian Perry, Celebrity Hair Stylist, Farouk International Color

"The new Hollywood glam. So shiny and polished, and the color looked beautiful on her skin."
-Lucie Doughty, Editorial Director, Paul Mitchell

"Sandra Bullock's sleek, shiny hair looked absolutely incredible! I love the sleek lines, including the curved part. Ultra modern and ultra glamorous!"
-Michael Shaun Corby, Alterna Global Creative Director

"Sandra Bullock looked great with her dress; perfect all around."
-Dean Banowetz, Celebrity Hair Stylist

"I liked the rich hair color and the style was so cool. She is just so gorgeous."
-Marco Pelusi, Owner, Marco Pelusi Hair Studio

Best Men's Look: Tom Ford and Robert Downey, Jr.

"Please! There was only one winner here-the master of creating amazing clothes for men and women, and now super fabulous film director. Simple, clean and always modern. His hair was slightly grown out so it's not too perfect and groomed. Facial hair to give definition and shape to the face is always a winner on celebs, especially on camera. It makes the face shape less round and the illusion of the face square. A great example of how to look polished, gentleman-like, appropriate, cool, and dapper!
-Damien Carney, Joico International Artistic Director

"The side parted clean hair looked very classic, and Rock Hudson-like."
-Carmine Minardi

Best Short Style: Carey Mulligan

"Very fresh looking, slightly geometric and modern, but striking cut for evening hair."
-Carmine Minardi

"She looked so beautiful. The short hair fit her petite face and frame."
-Lucie Doughty

"Carey looks fab with her short, classic hair cut. Layered internally, soft out line, blonde. She's pretty, soft and girly-a perfect combination for short hair. Twiggy, Mia Farrow, now Carey!      
-Damien Carney

"She looked stunning with her short crop. It's a throwback to the Twiggy haircut of the '60s or the Mia Farrow cut, which was done by the one and only Vidal Sassoon, for the movie Rosemary's Baby."
-Anthony Morrison, owner, Londoner Salon & Day Spa, "Shear Genius" winner?

Best Long Locks and Best Blondie: Kate Winslet

"Kate Winslet obviously cared enough to have fresh color! Beautiful choice of style and rich blonde dimension."
-Suzie Bond

"Beautiful, old Hollywood glamour."
-Jenny Balding, Redken for Men Expert

"I loved her hair; it was simple and just right. I like the overall cool shades/tones to her color palette. The dress, make-up and hair all worked well."
-Damien Carney

"She looked stunning in a very simple gown but it's her hair that really made a statement for me. It was classic Hollywood styled down and in soft waves. The color was shades of ash and golden blonde, which complemented her perfect skin."
-Anthony Morrison

"Her color is so natural and soft; flowing easily and effortlessly; classy."
-Marco Pelusi

Best Redheads: Sandy Powell and Vera Farmiga

Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic

"Definitely Best Costume Designer Sandy Powell."
-David Stanko, Redken Hair Color Consultant

"Sandy Powell: Wow, did she stand out beautifully!"
-Patrick McIvor, owner, Patrick McIvor Color Studio, and Matrix Artistic Color Director

"Stylish, modern and a fresh unconstructed updo, too."
-Tabatha Coffey, owner, Industrie Hair Gurus, star of "Tabatha's Salon Takeover"

"Interesting, architectural and fun."
-Patrick McIvor

Best Updos: Demi Moore and Anna Kendrick

"It was very alive, loose and not too 'done looking.' I loved the long piece at the front, it blended ‘down' and ‘up' hair perfectly."
-Carmine Minardi

"Classic swept with beautiful, unstructured fluidity."
-Wendy Belanger, Artistic Director, Pureology Serious Color Care

"She looked ravishing and 15 years younger. Demi wore the trendy, side down, tousled look flawlessly.  I also particularly like how her earrings brought some length to her shorter face shape."
-Phillip Wilson, International Creative Director, FHI Heat

"The best updo for me goes to Anna Kendrick. She looked stunning. Her hair was soft and sexy and young, her skin was luminescent and her dress was outstanding."
-Anthony Morrison

Best Love/Hate: Sarah Jessica Parker

"Sarah Jessica Parker's over-the-top bun and frizzy front. I love it because it's fun and a little adventurous.
-Janine Jarman, Sebastian Stylist Design Team

"Did not like Sarah J Parker. It was a good try, but the balance was way off. Her head and face is too small to pull off the larger gigantic back detail; reduce it by 50 percent and it would have worked. But I liked that they tried something different."
-Damien Carney

"Sarah Jessica Parker: finished, risky and beautifully-executed. A modern version of looking at the past, à la Miss Elizabeth Taylor."
-Tabatha Coffey
