It's the eve of Halloween! I hope you have either had fun dressing up this past weekend or are going to on Halloween night. I want to know if you are planning an amazing costume that is accompanied with amazing hair? This past weekend my friends and I dressed up and went out on the town. I dressed up as Katy Perry (again) and wore a pink wig. My friend, Brooke, was a 1920's flapper and I did something really fun with her hair that I would like to share with you! Its a great trick for either being in costume or just wanting to have a different look.
Brooke has long hair and in order to achieve a short 20's flapper wave, I had to give the impression of short, wavy hair. First, I took the hair and tied it into a low ponytail, leaving about five inches of hair below the ponytail holder. Next, I tucked and rolled the ponytail up to her nape and pinned the hair with bobby pins. The layers of her hair that fell out I curled and backcombed to create a messy fuller look. Then we used a glittery headband to really give the flapper look the full effect. Then spray with hair spray to give the "bob" more fullness and hold. What do you think of the finished look?
Have fun this Halloween and be sure to post me pictures of your look!
I absolutely love this! I was planning on being a flapper next Halloween and I do not want to cut my hair for a long time so I will definitley look back and use these tips to make it look like a bob. I love that you showed a before and after picture, definitely helps to look at and know that it can be done.
