Goth hairstyles to try for Halloween
Running out of Halloween hair ideas? Let these goth hairstyles save the day (or the night rather).
It’s that time of the year again when you can play around with costumes and no one will judge you. It’s Halloween! You may be too old young no more to go trick-or-treating, but you can definitely dress up for a Halloween party. Have you decided on a look yet? Why don’t you go goth this year, and match it with mind-blowing but easy to make goth hairstyles?
Originally, goths are one of the Germanic peoples who invaded the Roman empire and were key in establishing Medieval Europe. Over time, the meaning of the word “goth” has evolved. It describes a type of rock music that is typically characterized by dark lyrics. In fashion, the term “goth” brings to mind black clothing and dark makeup that create a mysterious overall look. If you’re thinking of wearing this look to your Halloween party, nail it by picking from one of these goth hairstyles.
Have an edgy Halloween with goth hairstyles
1. Messy goth hair
Having a hard time styling your hair? Make it messy! To nail this look, just flip your hair and spritz hairspray on the roots to add volume and texture. Then, with a tail comb, tease your hair. Making your hair big is key in this hairstyle. When you’ve achieved the volume you want, finish your ‘do with a chunky headpiece. Complement your hair with smokey eyes and dark outfit, and you’re Halloween ready.
Editor’s tip: Spritz TRESemmé Freeze Hold Hairspray on your hair when creating big hairstyles that need superior hold.
2. Textured down ‘do
If you think that a big hair isn’t for you but you still want that messy look, go for a textured hairstyle. You can create this by making shallow waves using a blow dryer or a curling iron. Then, finish with sea salt spray to add texture. Scrunch hair to style and nail that messy-chic look.
Editor’s tip: Keep your textured look and wavy hairstyles from falling flat after a few hours by spritzing TONI&GUY Sea Salt Texturising Spray on your hair.
3. Dark, straight hair
Got natural black or dark brown hair? Goth hairstyles will just be a piece of cake. In fact, you don’t need to do much. Even straight, sleek hair can spell G-O-T-H when complemented with the right outfit and makeup. To nail this hairstyle, spritz heat protectant on your hair first, then straighten your locks using a flat iron. Make your hair as straight and as frizz-free as possible by finishing off with a drop of hair serum.
Editor’s tip: Use Cream Silk Standout Straight to have wickedly straight, smooth, and frizz-free hair.
4. Dark lob with full bangs
This goth hairstyle is a bit high-fashioned as well. It’s perfect for slaying at parties or on the runway. To create this hairstyle, blow dry your bangs down and straight so they stay in shape. Then, make your lob wavy or play with its layers using a flat iron. Apply hair wax to help define your layers. Complete your high-fashioned goth look with black eyeliner and you’ll definitely be a head turner at your Halloween party.
