The Halloween party is just around the corner! If you are short of ideas for finding an original hairstyle that will complement your costume and makeup beautifully, here are several possible options that will convince you. The hardest thing will be to choose !
If we love having goosebumps on Halloween, the famous party is also one of the funniest of the year. October 31 is now or never to dress up and give free rein to your desires and creativity. Whether you choose a scary, fairytale or hilarious disguise, the only watchword is to think outside the box! Yes, because during Halloween night, we love originality! However, it's not always easy to be creative every year, especially when it comes to your hairstyle. That’s why we found 40 original hairstyle ideas for an unforgettable Halloween.
Braids
Braids allow you to achieve a variety of Halloween hairstyles without the need for a lot of accessories. They ensure a worked and original style as much for a child as for a woman. Braids are the hairstyle ideal for a last minute Halloween costume whether he is evil or not.
You can stay sober by decorating your braid with colorful ribbons or with various other accessories, whether they are safety pins or skulls. Braids can be improvised as a spider's web where you can drop a few fake arachnids, which are very popular during Halloween. This type of hairstyle provides the original touch for a revisited witch look. It is also possible to make several braids to imitate tentacles, spider legs or to create a scorpion tail.
The braids will also go well with makeup and disguise of an ancient princess, goddess or to recreate the look of certain heroines who do not lack style. We think in particular of Daenerys Targaryen from Game Of Thrones, Katniss Everdeen from Hunger Games, Octavia Blake from The 100 or Lagertha from Vikings.
Ponytail
Like the braid, the ponytail is a hairstyle that can look simple for an occasion like Halloween night. Yet she is very versatile and suits a little girl as well as a woman. Thanks to a voluminous ponytail, it is possible to recreate the appearance of a ghost in the hair using some well-placed accessories. You can also "trap" Halloween props like skulls or skeletons in your hair. You can also tie the ponytail in several places with small rubber bands. This will help create mini pumpkins or cavities to place skulls in.
The bun
The bun is another simple hairstyle to achieve but which does not fail to have its effect for the Halloween party. Thanks to a bun and ephemeral coloring, it is possible to create a small pumpkin in the hair. An ideal hairstyle for a little girl! You can also use the bun as if it were the body of a spider and add some legs and eyes to it. This hairstyle also works with cats, bats and other typical Halloween animals! Some people prefer to cover their hairstyle with a spider web before placing plastic arachnids on it.
We don't forget the accessories!
The accessories are essential to polish a disguise and a stylish Halloween hairstyle. It's the finishing touch that makes all the difference for adults and kids. If the witch's hat is a must-have, there are many other alternatives. You can stay sober by highlighting your hair with ribbons chosen in Halloween colors. You can also simply decorate her hair with barrettes in the shape of skeletal hands, skulls or pumpkins. You can "imprison" skeletons as if they were mummies or add a few spiders by turning your hair into a web. Pearls and seashells will be perfect to complement a mermaid costume and makeup while crowns can enhance different costumes. The crown of roses will be ideal for a disguise inspired by dia de muertos, the feast of the dead typical of Mexican culture. A gold crown will finish off a princess costume beautifully, while a crown of thorns will make the costume much more dramatic if not evil. Headbands are also a quick way to complete a Halloween costume, especially for a child. The most popular are cat ears or horns. Finally, glitter is a lovely way to put some magic in your hair for Halloween night.
The horns
The horns are another must-have for Halloween night whether for a devil or unicorn disguise or to change into Maleficent, the black fairy of The Sleeping Beauty. We opt for two horns for a devilish costume or for a single horn to transform into a unicorn. For this, there are headbands already in the shape of horns around which you wrap your hair. For a tailor-made Halloween costume, you can also create your own horns. The desired shape is achieved with the help of a wire that is attached to a basic headband. You wrap your hair around the thread and then fix it with bun pins and a little hairspray.
We play with colors!
What could be better than a radical change of hair color for Halloween night for a look that will make an impression? Orange and black are the most popular colors on this special day but we also love purple, red and even white. Two-tone hair is also popular on Halloween. Black and white is reminiscent of Cruella's hair, while pink and blue are essential to emulate Harley Quinn's hairstyle. Orange, the quintessential Halloween color, is often associated with black, green or purple. Some will prefer a softer style with colors like blue or pink to complement a disguise and makeup of a unicorn, princess or even a mermaid. On Halloween, you don't have to wear an evil look! The important thing is to have fun.
To flaunt shimmering hair color on Halloween night, there are some ephemeral hair colors that will create an unforgettable evening style without damaging the hair. You can also opt for clip-on locks to invite color into your hair. You can also bet on a wig for a stunning hairstyle but without going through a hairdressing salon.
The waffles
For a full volume hairstyle that throws it off, waffles are a great idea. They are quick to make and effective! They can be matched with a witch or vampire costume but also with more romantic disguises such as those of princesses or fairies.
To create waffles, we spray texturizing spray all over the hair to give the hairstyle more substance and volume. Comb the hair from roots to ends and then divide the hair into several sections. We use an embossing iron starting from the roots and working strand by strand. Once all the hair is embossed, fix the hairstyle with a hairspray. You can also go to a hair salon for absolutely perfect waffle hair.
You can leave the hair full of volume. They are then decorated with a few spiders or other accessories. You can also make a half-tail, a big bun or even more elaborate hairstyles inspired by those of the aristocrats of the 18th century.
