Putting Your Costume Together
Once you pick your fun costume for the year, you have to start planning the outfit. You do not want to put something together last minute. The first thing you want to do is gather your key pieces. This may require putting your DIY skills to the test.
For example, if you are going as Pennywise from It, you can wear a red dress and black shoes and decorate them to look like a clown. Similarly, if you are going as Daphne from Scooby-Doo you will want to get a purple dress and maybe even purple gloves if you want to make it fancy.
Also, for a Dexter costume, you could wear white clothes and splatter fake blood on them.
You also have to plan for your area. If you live in a really cold area you will want to wear more than just a slip dress to stay warm.
Next, you need to gather your accessories like a red cape if you are a superhero or a green scarf if you are going as Poison Ivy. If you are going as Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer you might want some wolf-inspired accessories to pay homage to her werewolf boyfriend Oz.
Once you put together the main outfit, all you have to do is plan your makeup and you are ready for Halloween!
Things to Remember
All Hallows Eve is fast approaching so now is the time to decide what cartoon characters or people from tv shows you want to be. If you are struggling to find a costume, let your love of fashion and your stunning red mane help you decide.
Halloween is one of the best holidays of the year, so find a great red-haired costume and rock it. Do not be afraid to top your costume from last year!
If you will be doing a lot of walking on the best night in the entire world, try to pick a costume that is equal parts fashion and function. A red gown is cute but it will not be easy to walk in. By planning your night accordingly, you can take Halloween to the next level.
Final Thoughts
No matter your hair color, there are so many amazing great characters that can turn into easy Halloween costumes. The best part about Halloween is that whether or not you are a natural red head, there are countless perfect ways to show off your hair.
In recent years there are more and more great red-haired characters gaining popularity, so you are in luck!
