HOW TO DO IT:

1. Untangle the hair with the help of a similar-looking brush. Then separate it leaving a strand of hair loose on the front while tying back the rest.

3. Take the remaining strand of hair and curl it using the 230º hair straightener.
4. Ready, now simulate a false scar on the neck and make your skin paler.

Zombie

In the Walking Dead there are a lot of zombies which could easily be imitated. We have chosen the less scary ones so as to take a closer look at their hairstyle. (in order to get a scarier look you can always be creative and simulate scars or cuts using some makeup) Here are two basic tips to do the hairstyle:

1. Do the usual hairstyle, air dried if this is your fashion, or style it with the Termix Evolution brushes (designed for all kinds of hair), making loose waves.
2. Use some dry clean shampoo or talcum powder without brushing the hair. This will give an air of compactness and dirt very much in line with these characters.
3. Finally unleash your creativity with the makeup and look very scary.

Harley Quinn

Now it’s time for the Suicide Squad. This will probably be the most imitaded look of the year as it is easily reinterpreted and combines sensualism and horror.The character Harley Quinn has left nobody indifferent.

1. Untangle the hair and part it in the middle, leaving loose two strands of hair on the front.
2. Do two high tight ponytails one on each side of the head.To gain a shinier look use a pneumatic brush of wildboar bristles. You could also use the 230º hair straightener as well to curl the edges.
3. As for the colour, we can use two different eyeshadows in pink and blue or chalk of the same color. Soak the edges of the ponytails and directly rub the chosen color against the damp hair. You will be amazed to see that it instantly gets coloured in a very intense way. If you wish to remove it, you just need to wash your hair normally.
4. Makeup: smoky eyes different in color for each eye, pale skin and red lips. Ah! And don’t forget your baseball bat.

We hope that these hairstyles make you look very scary, ¡HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
