When putting together your Halloween accessories like fake blood, stockings, and gloves, make sure you don’t forget about your hair. Changing the color of your hair is a great way to upgrade your Halloween look, but a lot of people don't realize that temporary hair sprays are the best and simplest way to do so.
Why we love it: Pay homage to the traditional Halloween colors with some orange streaks in your hair. Perfect for those with dark brown or black hair, this will immediately let people know that you're celebrating the spookiest of all holidays.
Get the look: Separate the chunks of hair you want to color and clip the rest of your hair back. Grab an orange hair color spray like the L’Oréal Paris Colorista Hair Makeup Temporary 1-Day Hair Color Spray in Coral Pink and shake the can well. Then hold it about four to six inches from your hair and spray those pieces. Make sure you wait for them to dry before applying more, building the color up slowly. If your hair isn't dark enough to offset the orange, feel free to pick up a black temporary hairspray as well.
Why we love it: Glitter spray will add a shimmery feel to any spooky look, and it’s a lot easier to apply than loose glitter and glue. Go as subtle or as bold as you like with anything from a few streaks, an ombré effect, or a full head of glitter.
Why we love it: Hair art is a unique alternative to a costume and your look likely won’t be replicated at whatever Halloween festivity you go to, and it’s easier to do than it looks. For the Halloween season, shapes like skulls, pumpkins, and spiderwebs will work best.
Why we love it: This two-in-one look looks super cool, and it gives maximum impact with minimum effort, we promise.
Why we love it: These colorful streaks are fashionable, but will also add a Halloween vibe to any look. This look also works for a variety of costumes and looks.
Get the look: The key here is to avoid being too precise with the color hair spray. Go for a freehand vibe and use each color freely, allowing the colors to mix to create a cool effect. For this look we love the L’Oréal Paris Colorista Hair Makeup Temporary 1-Day Hair Color Spray in Pastel Mint and Purple. Hold the can a few inches from your hair, shake it well and then spray it on your desired pieces of hair in the bold colors.
Why we love it: This distinct look involves just your bangs, and it works well with any color. It’s also an easy way to get into temporary hair color spray if you’ve never used one before.
Get the look: Cover your face with a plastic shield, take hold of your bangs, and go to town with the temporary hair color spray — we suggest the L’Oréal Paris Colorista Hair Makeup Temporary 1-Day Hair Color Spray in Hot Pink. You can also color some longer strands in front of your hair for a face framing look.
