Halloween will be here before you know it. Here are fun Halloween costume ideas that involve some pretty cool hair and makeup. Some of these are simple to do at home, and others may require the special expertise you can only find at Glo Salon in Denver.


Barbie for Halloween

Barbie has inspired countless Halloween costumes but this year, you can count on seeing Barbie everywhere! Whether you do classic Barbie or any modern take on her exaggerated look, you'll need lots of hair and a pink outfit. Barbie is known for her glam makeup and big hair, from bouncy blowouts to retro ponytails and bangs. To complete the look, you may need some clip in hair extensions for length and volume, or a glamorous, fashion wig!

When you want to make a big hair statement, our clip ins are just what you need. Our model Jordyn wore a full head of 20" clip in panels for this costume. They're high quality human hair so they're not just for Halloween. Get the clip ins in your natural hair color and you'll have these beauty accessories for a long time to come. Keep them tangle-free and dust-free in a Glo Extensions garment style travel bag. Comes with it's own hanger, just $25 at the salon.

Zombie Halloween Makeup Ideas

What is our obsession with the macabre? We love a Halloween opportunity to outdo our friends and neighbors to see who can be the grossest and scariest. These looks for the "unliving" will take some skill. If you want to dress to impress this Halloween, book an appointment with our makeup artist, Diana. She's the master behind these looks with special effects. She's crazy talented and formally trained in all styles of makeup, from the runway to the theater.

Halloween Airbrush Makeup & Tattoo Cover up

Airbrush makeup is a popular choice for Halloween makeup because it lasts all day. It is applied using an airbrush gun, which sprays a fine mist of makeup onto the skin. Airbrush makeup is water-resistant and smudge-proof, making it ideal for long-lasting Halloween looks. It can be used to create a variety of effects, from subtle shading to dramatic special effects. Airbrush makeup is available in a wide range of colors and finishes, so you can create any look you want.
