Halloween Hair Styles
A Pirate's Hair for Me
Don't jump ship! This pirate hairstyle is so quick, you'll have time left to practice your captain Jack Sparrow accent. To achieve these ocean-worthy waves, create a middle part and curl away from your face with the Express Ion Clipped 1.25" Detachable Curling Iron. Add mini face-framing braids, topped with your favorite scarf.
Style with Cat-itude
If you're looking for a catastrophe-free hairstyle, look no further than these adorable cat ears! Create a middle part with two thin braids on either side. Form triangles with your braids and attach them to a section of hair underneath. Secure the ear shape with the Pro Tools Express Ion Style+ Ceramic Flat Iron Express Ion Clipped 1.25" Detachable Curling Iron and finish your look with the Paul Mitchell Gloss Drops Shine Serum for the purr-fect shine.
Colorful-Haired Characters
Whether you're a perfectly coiffed princess or a punk rock princess (2007 Avril, looking at you), vibrant hair color is key. Give your hair a quick color boost with the Clean Beauty Color Depositing Treatment.
