12 Halloween Glam Hairstyles for You
1. Vintage Woman
Dressing up for Halloween doesn’t always mean slathering your face with zombie makeup. You can sport a beautiful, vintage hairstyle like the victory rolls. This hairstyle was popular in the 1940s and 1950s after the war. It was also made iconic by Hollywood stars and pin-up magazines during that time. How’s that for a fab Halloween glam look?
2. Red Carpet Ready
Picture this: A limo pulls over, the car door opens, and a beautiful woman dressed to the nines alights the vehicle. She steps on the red carpet and poses amidst flashing camera lights. Get this glamorous vibe going on your Halloween party by creating a sleek and sexy hairstyle like the wet look.
To create this hairstyle, put your hair in rollers first to give your hair volume. Then, remove the rollers and brush your hair back. Seal the look with a smoothing hairspray, and you’re done! Wear a floor-length dress and accessorize with chandelier earrings to complement this look.
Editor’s tip: Nail this hairstyle with TRESemmé Compressed Micro Mist Smooth Hold Hairspray. It gives your hair a light coverage and invisible hold that lasts all day. It’s perfect for slicked-back hairstyles and wet looks.
3. Cheerleader
Still got your high school or college cheerleading uniform? Put it on for your virtual Halloween party. Complement this with the fun-looking double braided ponytail and look like you’re about to do your old routines.
4. Diwata
Put a flower crown or a headdress on your hair and be a diwata (a Filipina deity) this Halloween. Wear a long flowy dress to go with your diwata hairstyle. You can also create soft waves on your hair using a curling wand to complete your look.
5. Viking warrior
Combine the fierce and the glamorous with this Viking warrior Halloween hairstyle. To nail this look, you have to create a full, messy down ‘do. Flip your hair, apply mousse, and blow dry to boost volume. Then, tease your hair to add more volume and create that tousled look. Get a curling iron with a small barrel and curl small sections of hair at a time. When done, do a hair flip, scrunch your hair and voila! Your hair may be messy, but your look totally says, “Don’t mess with me.”
6. Gothic Waves
Look like a stunning Gothic priestess by making waves with your long hair. Create thin S-shaped waves by using a curling iron with a medium-sized barrel. Curl a thin section of hair at a time for about five seconds, then release.
When you haven’t achieved the shape that you’re gunning for, curl the same section again for another five seconds. Avoid wrapping your hair around the barrel for a long time to keep it from curling too much.
Editor’s tip: Guard against heat damage by spritzing TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Flat Iron Smoothing Spray on your hair before curling.
7. Gothic Updo
Don’t want to leave your hair down? Make a statement with updo Halloween hairstyles like a voluminous bun. Just put your hair in a high ponytail first, then curl sections of your ponytail to create volume. Then, gather your hair, twist it loosely, and wrap it around the base of your ponytail. Secure with bobby pins. You can also use a hair donut to make sure that your bun stays in place.
8. Minimalist Royalty
You don’t have to wear a ball gown to be a feel like royalty and spell Halloween Glam. Sometimes, all it takes is a confident posture, raised chin, and a drop-dead gorgeous and sleek hair. Achieve this by blow drying your hair first. Then, use a flat iron to straighten hair. Complete your hairstyle with a gold, minimalist headpiece for that simple but sophisticated royalty vibe.
Editor’s tip: Maintain straight, frizz-free hair by washing it with Cream Silk Standout Straight Conditioner.
9. Galaxy Superhero
Just one look at you wearing this hairstyle, and everyone will know that you’re a galaxy heroine. Create perfect space buns by starting with soft and manageable hair. Put your hair in pigtails first, then brush them before putting them in buns so create a smooth, tangle-free hairstyle. Finish by spritzing hairspray on your hair to get rid of frizz.
10. Greek Goddess
This season is the perfect moment to unleash your inner princess! And nope, you don’t need a tiara. Pretty crown braid Halloween hairstyles are way more royal! Just create twin braids, then pin them on top of your head, and you’re done.
11. Ice queen
If we’re talking about queens, we should never forget about the ice queen. Cop this character this halloween (or for the rest of the year) by getting your icy blonde hair color.
Editor’s tip: Getting blonde hair means giving more TLC to your hair. Invest on purple formula products like the new TRESemmé Pro-Color Series Blonde Brilliance Shampoo and Conditioner. This power duo has Jojoba oil to help you neutralize brass and yellow tones to keep your blonde vibrant twice longer.
12. Red-Haired Mermaid
Another hair color to try this Halloween is the vibrant, fiery red. It fits the bill for a number of characters, plus it’s a great way to stand out from the crowd!
Now, you’re ready to party. All eyes will be on you with these Halloween glam hairstyles.
