Halloween zombie hairstyle (English)

If you are not afraid of repulsive images and want to shock others, then the image of a zombie is ideal for Halloween. It’s not easy to create, but with effort and rehearsal in advance, you can create a terribly effective image. You can limit yourself to a zombie costume: torn clothes; to add a terrifying effect, you can sprinkle the outfit with fake blood. But without expressive makeup, the image will be unfinished. Therefore, it is worth spending some time to create repulsive makeup.

Important details for a zombie Halloween look

To create the perfect image of the living dead, you need more than just clothes and makeup. The following details are very important in this image:

Lenses will help create an impressive effect that cannot be achieved with any makeup. White lenses or ones with a luminous effect are ideal for this look. An important detail - teeth, the image of a zombie will not work if you have a snow-white smile. To give them a dark shade, rinse them with dark food coloring. To return them to their natural color, you need to clean them with baking soda.

For a zombie image you need to use fake blood. If you can’t buy it, you can make it yourself. To do this, you will need dyes of two colors - red and blue. If you add a little black paint, you get a gore effect.

Place a pan of water on the fire.
Dissolve starch in a glass of cold water.
Pour the diluted starch into boiling water, stirring while doing so. The more starch you add, the thicker the mixture will be. Then add red dye and a little blue until the “blood” takes on a natural shade. You need to be careful with the blue tint so that it doesn’t turn purple.

There are other options for creating artificial blood for Halloween zombie makeup:

sugar syrup, tinted with dyes;
gelatin solution with dyes.

Important! Don't try to replace fake blood with lipstick! It looks unnatural and will ruin the whole image.

What you need to create zombie makeup for Halloween

To create a zombie look for a girl for Halloween you will need:

theatrical makeup or light-colored foundation;
shades of gray or gray-green, purple, blue or crimson flowers.

To create important elements (artificial wounds) you will need theatrical wax. If you were unable to purchase one, paper napkins and eyelash glue or gelatin will do the job.

Step-by-step instructions for creating zombie makeup for Halloween

Before doing zombie makeup, practice so that it doesn’t turn out too repulsive, which is especially important for girls.

Step-by-step instructions for performing zombie makeup for Halloween:

Pre-facial skin cleanse with tonic. Then apply a light shade. You can use theatrical makeup: add a little blue or green tint to white paint.
Start drawing circles near the eyes. To do this, take dark-colored shadows and blend them thoroughly. Apply a red tint along the edge of the circle and blend the boundaries between these and dark shadows. This helps create a bruising effect. If you paint the upper eyelid with light gray shadows, and paint the lower ones with dark red and highlight the contour of the eyes with a red pencil, this will create the effect of sore eyes.
Pull your cheeks in and along the formed depressions brush with grey-green shadows. Add a little burgundy or purple shade and blend.
Apply lip foundation. Apply lipstick without touching the contours of your lips. Your task is to create the effect of a mouth carelessly stained with blood. Use a brush to apply some fake blood.

Zombie Makeup Feature

Your Halloween zombie look won't be complete if you don't... artificial skin damage. A simple option would be to make them from napkins. They need to be torn and glued to the skin using eyelash glue. So you need to stick several layers until you get a lumpy surface. When the glue dries, a foundation of the same shade as the skin is applied to the napkins. Use shadows to create a “decomposition” effect.

In some places, tear the napkins with a toothpick, just be careful not to damage your skin. Ruffle the resulting gap to create the illusion of peeling skin. Apply crimson, purple and gray shadows over the area of the resulting gap, and paint the inside with red paint. Sprinkle the resulting “wound” with artificial blood, add a few drips.

Hairstyles for Halloween should fully correspond to the festive atmosphere.

At the same time, you can get scary and terrifying images at home, without using the services of hairdressers and stylists.

After all, Halloween is a period of hairstyles in the style of zombies, vampires, witches and other “evil spirits”.

Halloween is a holiday of creative and imaginative people

Halloween is not a Russian holiday at all, but its theme was so popular with Russian youth that the European tradition immediately passed on to us.

Every year on October 30, young people turn their luxurious appearance into a frightening image and rage all night long.

Of course, an important part of an intimidating appearance is the hairstyle, but the outfit and correctly selected makeup make the image look more impressive.

Therefore, before choosing a hairstyle for Halloween, it is recommended to decide on an outfit, look at the photo, and then look at other details.

Today, popular images for celebrating Halloween are: a vampire, a dead bride, a fairy-tale Maleficent and an evil witch.

When creating the image of an evil witch, which should correspond to the Gothic style, stylists recommend using tangled strands by combing the hair.

If you want to create the image of a more modern fatal witch, it is better to collect your combed curls in a bun or in a ponytail.

Flashy, bright makeup and a suit will help complete the chosen style correctly.

After the appearance of the fairy-tale film “Maleficent”, the image of the main character Angelina Jolie appealed to all girls and women who do not miss Halloween celebrations.

By the way, it’s not too difficult to translate what you see into real life; it’s enough to have hair of at least medium length, stock up on hairspray and buy a hoop with horns.

Forming the image of Maleficent, long strands are wound around the horns, fixed with bobby pins and varnish.

If the hair is not too long, the horns can be left sticking out on the loose strands.

Also on Halloween night you can appear in front of your friends in an equally famous image - Marticia Adams.

This style will appeal to beautiful and strong women. All you need to do is put on a long black tight-fitting outfit and do similar makeup.

Well, the hairstyle, in this case, should have completely even strands, which is done using a straightening iron.

Stylists advise creating the image of the bride's corpse using the style of Tim Burton. But for this, girls need to have black and long strands that create waves with a wet effect.

The root zone remains smooth, there should not be even a hint of volume on it. And the most important thing in this hairstyle is a completely straight parting.

There is an opinion that when creating the image of a vampire, you don’t have to limit yourself to anything, and yet such a hairstyle should look elegant.

Romantic curls and curls are not particularly welcome in this style; instead, you can collect the strands in a high ponytail.

Halloween styling in Elvira style

When choosing hairstyles for Halloween (another name is All Saints' Day), it is recommended to pay attention to the “nest” styling, made in the style of the ruler of darkness, Elvira.

There is nothing complicated in creating such a hairstyle, the main thing is that you have long hair on your head, and you have hairpins, a foam roller and hairspray on hand to fix the result.

The basis for the hairstyle - foam rubber - must be wrapped in fabric, its color must match the color of the hair.

We make a horizontal parting from ear to ear, carefully comb the upper hair on the back of the head and fix it with varnish. We do not touch the side strands yet.

At this moment, you need to determine the height to which the “nest” will rise.

After which we use foam rubber wrapped in fabric - we secure the auxiliary element with combed strands and secure it with invisible hairpins.

The lower curls can be rolled up and fixed at the back of the head, or left loose. We use side strands to enhance the formed structure.

Lush Halloween hairstyles in zombie style

Some stylists consider small curls to be the most suitable hairstyle for Halloween. After all, thanks to the chic volume of styling (see photo), you can, by choosing the appropriate makeup and outfit, create with your own hands, in addition to the image of a zombie, the image of a vampire or witch.

To create a curly hairstyle for Halloween, all you need is to have hairpins, hairspray and a straightener on hand:

We divide the hair into strands no more than 2 cm thick. We place each strand in a hairpin, wind a zigzag of hair on it, fix the resulting figure eight with varnish and heat it with an iron for 3 seconds;
We process all strands according to the specified scheme;
At the final stage, remove the hairpins and comb the curls with your fingers.

The next hairstyle for Halloween is just as effective, as it is based on a regular backcomb, as in the photo above.

In this case, the length of the strands does not matter, the main thing is to do the combing correctly, which will allow your Halloween hairstyle to last all night:

Separate a strand 1 cm wide in front of the head and temporarily place it on the forehead;
We carefully comb all other hair, working with a comb towards the roots of the hair;
We fix each combed strand with a varnish of only medium hold, since a strong fixing agent will weigh down the hairs and kill the volume;
We put into action the front separated strand, with its help we refine the bouffant - we cover the hairstyle made for Halloween with straight hair.

Horned styling for Halloween

The Halloween holiday is not complete without such an attribute as horns, which you can form on your head with your own hands from your own curls.

Horned hair can be achieved if the hair is gathered into two high symmetrical ponytails.

In this case, ponytails can be made from all strands or only from the top part of the hair.

If your hair is long, you need to braid the strands of the tails or twist them into flagella, then make buns out of them.

Strands of short ponytails should be wrapped around elastic bands and secured with bobby pins at the base. And on ultra-short haircuts, horns are formed even easier, using styling products.

Mohawk Halloween Hairstyle

Styling with a mohawk has not lost its relevance for many years, but you can do it for Halloween without necessarily using a large number of different fixing agents.

For example, the hairstyle diagram below is made using the familiar French braid (see photo):

The French braid is woven in reverse, that is, the fingers begin their work from the back of the head and move towards the forehead;
During the process of forming the braid, the strands are pulled out and fixed with varnish, which allows you to get a stylish and luxurious mohawk for Halloween.

The holiday Halloween or All Saints' Day has only begun to be celebrated in our country in the last few years. This is a traditional pagan holiday, for which costumes of various evil spirits, such as vampires, zombies, ghouls, and ghosts, are prepared. The look you choose and the costume made to go with it must definitely match the Halloween makeup and hairstyle, which are just as easy to do yourself. The most popular Halloween costumes are vampire, witch, mermaid, dead bride, doll, skeleton, princess, zombie, cat, angel, and devil costumes. Therefore, hairstyles should not only match the given character, but also be original and unusual.

Popular Halloween Hairstyles

White Angel Hairstyle

This look features long blonde locks that frame the face. To do this, you need to treat the strands with a heat-protective hair styling product, divide your hair into thin strands and wind them with a curling iron or hot rollers. Fix the hairstyle with hairspray.

Black Angel Hairstyle

Unlike a white angel, for the image of a dark angel you need to have dark hair, but otherwise everything is done in the same way.

Vampire hairstyle

The most common hairstyle for this look would be a high hairstyle with a backcomb, long flowing, slightly tangled hair, decorated with a black veil, spider hairpins, false dreadlocks or spiky crowns of thorns. In order for the hairstyle to be high and fluffy, the backcomb should be done closer to the roots of the hair. You can comb only the upper strands and leave the lower ones loose. The hairstyle needs to be fixed with hairspray.

Mermaid hairstyle

Long, smoothly combed hair is best for mermaid hairstyles. To give it a green or blue tint, the hair can be diluted with colored curls or dyed with a tonic of the appropriate color.

Witch hairstyle

For the look of a witch, hair should be loose and disheveled. A high hairstyle with a backcomb and decorated with hairpins in the form of spiders, flies, cobwebs, and black lace is also appropriate.

Dead Bride Hairstyle

To create a hairstyle suitable for the image of a dead bride, you need to let your hair down, wrap your curls in large curlers so that they are soft, and style them with gel, which will create the appearance of wet hair. You can dye your hair blue using a tonic of this color. A wreath of artificial white flowers will complete the hairstyle.

Doll hairstyle

Three options are best suited for a doll's hairstyle: disheveled tousled hair, perfectly styled curls and curls, parted in the middle. In addition, you can braid two braids or wear a blue wig and look like Malvina.

Catwoman hairstyle

This image should be feminine and attractive. Hair should be straight and loose. An element of the hairstyle must be ears, which can be purchased ready-made and wrapped with hair around their frame.

Zombie hairstyle

The zombie look will be completed with a voluminous hairstyle, which will require a large number of hairpins, a clip, an iron, a flat brush, hairspray and 1.5 hours of time. We divide the washed hair into strands, securing each with a clip. Then, one by one, we place the strands in a hairpin and pull it closer to the scalp, twist it in a zigzag, similar to a figure eight, and fix it with varnish. Then we press it with a not very hot iron. After this, take out the hairpins and comb the curls.
