Apple Watch iPhone Face went black after updating to most recent iOS

After updating, my apple watch face went black. I tried holding down the side button for 10 seconds but nothing happened. I can tell it is "on" though. I don't have Voice Over or a Screen Curtain, so I am not sure what to do. Thank you in advance for you help!

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 10

Thank you so much, I appreciate it! This is good to know in the future. Actually, for whatever reasons, my Apple Watch did spontaneously not appear black anymore. :-) I will try your solutions if I come across the same problem. Maybe my watch was still finishing updating and I didn't realize it (even though it did say completed).
