How can I make Halloween hairstyles last all night?
To keep styles locked in, start with clean, dry hair. A gentle styling spray can give your hair some grip. Use flexible hold hairspray for a secure finish without stiffness. Plenty of bobby pins are your best friend. Hide them within braids or buns. For braids, braiding them a little tighter at the start helps. Comfort is important, so don’t over-tighten. For more on keeping styles secure, check out our gym hair hacks.
Can I use temporary hair color for these styles?
Absolutely! Temporary hair color is fantastic for Halloween looks. Hair chalk or temporary color sprays are great options. They wash out easily. Look for products specifically made for children. Always do a small patch test first. This checks for any skin sensitivity. Make sure to apply in a well-ventilated area. It adds that extra spooky or magical touch!

What if my child has very short hair for their costume?
Short hair is no problem at all! Accessorize! Think fun headbands with ears or glittery clips. A small, decorative hat can also complete a look. For a character look, you can use a tiny wig over their natural hair. Even a simple slicked-back style with a bit of gel looks polished. Focus on accessories to bring the costume to life.
