We
love Halloween here at HeadKandy so we’ve put together our fave
Halloween hairstyles for this year for you. Take a look below to see
which of these looks takes your fancy.
Scene Hairstyle
First
up, we have a scene hairstyle for you; this is a fun look for Halloween
as you can play around with your costume for the perfect scene look.
When your costume is ready, it’s time to style your hair. First,
you need to decide whether you want to keep with your natural hair
shade or whether you want to play around with some bright and bold
shades! We think both looks are awesome Halloween hairstyles. You can
even add in some animal print for a really unique scene hairstyle. Whatever
you decide to do, the key to this look is backcombing (and lots of
it!), but we also recommend fitting your hair extensions to give that
extra oomph! So, fit your hair extensions first and then use your hair
straighteners to create a poker straight style. Next, you need to get
backcombing your own hair (be sure not to backcomb your hair extensions
though!) for a real scene look! Backcomb your hair so that it’s big and
bold and then finish your style with a spritz of hairspray to ensure it
holds. Pop in a hair bow to really set the look off. ♥ You can easily adapt this scene hairstyle for a punk fairy look too. Just accessorise, accessorise, accessorise!
Vamp Hairstyle
Next
up, in our choice of Halloween hairstyles, we have the vamp hairstyle.
We love this look when it’s worn with loads of curls or waves, and
oodles of volume. We think the vamp hairstyle looks best with dark brown
or black hair, or with bright auburn locks, but you can work the vamp
hairstyle with any shade you fancy. If you
want more of a waved vamp look, style your hair and your hair extensions
using a large barrelled tong, but if you want tighter curls then we
would recommend the conical wand or a small barrelled tong. For
extra volume, backcomb the roots of your own hair and apply a little
hairspray to these roots before fitting the hair extensions and styling.
Mess up your curls a little using your fingers for a more boho finish.
Vintage pin-up hairstyles
Vintage
hairstyles are a huge hair trend at the moment and there’s no reason
you can’t bring a vintage icon back to life this Halloween with one of
our vintage pin-up hairstyles; we think finger waves and victory rolls
are perfect for your vintage pin-up look.
So,
if you want to wear your hair down this Halloween, then finger waves
could be the perfect look for you. Finger waves look gorgeous with all
different hair lengths, so if you have bobbed hair, you can thicken up
your locks with 12-14” hair extensions, or if you hair is longer, then
16-18” hair extensions would work well for this 1920’s style. We think
this style looks best with a deep side parting, so if you choose a side
parting, you may have to play around with the positioning of your
extensions. Once your extensions are fitted, follow our step-by-step
Great Gatsby Finger Wave Hair Tutorial to create your Halloween
hairstyle.
If you
prefer an updo then victory rolls are gorgeous vintage pin-up
hairstyles! The finished look of this style if pretty incredible, but
they are actually a lot easier to create than they look! (Which is
always good news!) So why not give this classic 40’s style a go this
Halloween? Decide where you want to position
your victory rolls before you start styling … you might want to wear one
large victory roll on the front of your head, or you might like to
choose to wear reverse victory rolls on the side of your head … the
choice is yours. Once you’re decided, you can part your hair and follow
our Victory Rolls Tutorial. ♥
So
those are our top picks for Halloween hairstyles this year … which look
is your favourite? Will you be rocking a different hairstyle this
Halloween? Leave us a comment or tweet us.
