According to pumpkin spice season (grunt), we’re officially into fall, which means that Halloween is just around the corner. Spooked over the ideas of dressing up for your buddy’s costume party, or to take your little monsters candy shopping around the neighborhood? The Floyd’s 99 crew has the inside scoop on how to utilize your current hairstyle to make playing dress-up less of a chore – and more of score –this Halloween.
Bald/Shaven
Whether you choose the shorn life, or the shorn life chose you, there are a few ways to approach Halloween when you’re bald or have your head buzzed. You can take the easy way out – throw on a camouflage T, a dog tag and some cargo pants, and rep the solider style. Or, you can take advantage of your “blank” canvas. Think Night King from Game of Thrones. While you may have to figure out how to build out that mess of angry looking spikes, at least you are ahead of the “game” in not having to deal with your hair. For an easier way out, grab some black armor and rock the Grey Worm look (Khaleesi’s main commander), and don’t forget your broom stick, which can double as your stave.
Long Hair, Don’t Care
Although Floyd’s 99 doesn’t condone letting your mane run loose and wild (because that likely means you’re not carving out the time to sit in their extremely comfortable chairs), they’re still happy to throw you some Halloween ideas – because, quite frankly, we’re cool like that. If you’ve got a curly head of hair, throw on a flat brim and rep Dustin from Stranger Things, or you can always get a little more hardcore with the same idea and channel your inner Eazy-E. As far as wavy goes, you’ll make a roaring Scar from The Lion King. If you’ve got length and maybe a tad of frizz (we know it adds character), grab a cowboy hat and getup, your beard, and maybe even a guitar and hit the “Old Town Road” as Billy Ray Cyrus.
Pompadours/Quiffs/Undercuts
Since you’re sporting a trendier style already, we’re guessing you may be up for a more exciting costume look. If you love vests, harem pants and little red fezzes, there’s literally only one character for you. Aladdin, of course. You can also throw on a hipster sweater, black pants and your most sarcastic expression and transform pretty easily into the snarky David Rose of Schitt’s Creek. And, since Bohemian Rhapsody wasn’t released until after Halloween in 2018, it’s a strong contender as one of this year’s more popular ideas. The late, great Freddie Mercury may not have had a lot of (hair) volume going on, but slick it back, throw on a mustache, and you’re ready to rock. Along with a white tank top and jeans, all you need is a studded armband to bling out your bicep (you know you want to).
Short and Basic
If you’re looking to do the bare minimum with your short and basic AF hairdo (just kidding), you can literally dress up as anyone. Maybe grab your dapper suit and a Nerf gun and shoot for Agent H (Men in Black International), or if you’re feeling like a superhero, grab your red jumpsuit and transform into Shazam!
Combover
Obviously, you’ve got to go Mr. Rodgers – all day! There’s no better time to bust out your red cardigan and khakis… Actually, this is the only time you should.
Afro
Two Words: Bob Ross.
Halloween Haircuts
If you go all in for Halloween, it won’t matter what kind of everyday haircut you sport. You’re probably even willing to pull out the clippers just for Halloween’s sake. This year, you can dress as the Genie from Aladdin (that’ll be a fun hairdo and paint job to attempt) or Elton John from Rocketman (don’t forget the glitter shades and sideburns).
Head-to-Toe Costumes
And, if you’re planning a full costume makeover, Buzz, Woody, Forky and the rest of the gang from Toy Story make for a fun group effort.
Now that Floyd’s 99 hooked you up with more than a few awesome tricks, if you’ve still got 99 problems, hopefully your Halloween costume ain’t one.
