Halloween Hair
Forget that long overdue haircut you’ve been meaning to book in, Halloween hair this year is all about long tussled locks with a streak of neon. To achieve this look, wear hair long and messy with a flash of orange of green streaks it’s fun for all those ghoulishly good Halloween parties. You can either buy clip-in hair locks, or get professional bonding for a long-term solution.
Another popular look is braided hair with black strings the perfect day-to-night look for any occasion. Be warned though, don’t try this braid look yourself, it’s best to get the professionals involved, you can even get an independent stylist to come to your home.
For something easier, there’s nothing more versatile than a wig. Amongst trending looks this year is the ever-fashionable Harley Quinn wig, along with a long platinum look.
Spooky Makeup
Two words you never thought you’d hear together: cute and clown. Alas, it’s one of the top TikTok makeup trends 2022, that you’ll want to jump on this Halloween. To pull off the cute clown look, be sure to invest in some long thick lash extensions or better still, get them done professionally and they’ll last up to six weeks. You’ll also need to stock up on red and white/cream makeup palettes to complete the look.
