Halloween Hairstyles FAQs

  • Easy Halloween hairstyles for a last-minute getup require minimum tools in the nick of time. Try a slicked-back ponytail or tease up a center part to create scary volume. You can also whip up a quick bun and add spooky accessories like a tarantula or spider web.
  • If your hair is on the short side, some easy hairstyles for Halloween include mini space buns, a web of tiny spider clips, freaky headbands, and classic finger waves. Make it extra simple by choosing a costume or character that doesn’t typically require long hair.
  • Cute Halloween hairstyles for curly-Qs include braids, twist-outs, puffy ponytails, and natural Afro styles. Add more to your look by incorporating accessories like clips shaped like insects or flower crowns. And don’t forget to check out the new Methods for Curls system for amazing moisture and definition.
  • It’s relatively easy to add accessories to your scary Halloween hairstyle that won’t do damage. Make sure they are lightweight (toppers and little hats are ideal) or gently slide under your hairstyle. Avoid heavy metal clips or anything that contains adhesives.
