If you're NOT going as a sexy [insert any Halloween costume here], you might want to try a Gatsby-esque flapper girl costume. In order to pull it off successfully, you'll need the iconic Daisy Buchanon 'do.
Hairstylist Matt Fugate shows us how it's done.
1. Part your hair in line with the arch in your left eyebrow. "Use a fine-toothed comb, so that it's perfectly straight," suggests Fugate.2. Divide and conquer. "Separate your hair into three sections: the front, the crown, which you can pin up into a bun and clip" — like our model and Cosmo's associate beauty editor Loni Albert did above — "and the bottom, which you'll need to put into two pig tails," he explains.3. Begin to barrel curl the front. "Taking inch-wide sections around your hairline, start to wrap your hair over the iron and around and around the barrel to make them all look uniform," says Fugate. "This will allow your hair to fall into that fingerwave formation easier. Then, pin each curl so that it set as it cools to make the curls last longer."4. Tease your hair with your hands. "Working on one pigtail at a time, hold it with one hand and start pushing your hair toward your scalp, teasing it into a cotton candy-like texture with the other," he says. "You're creating volume for the crown section of your hair to be layered over, giving your future faux bob a solid foundation."
5. Combine your "cotton candy" pigtails. "Gather your "cotton candy" teased hair together and secure it with bobby pins," says Fugate. "This allows you to create volume at the nape of your neck, establishing the start of your faux bob."6. Let your hair down. "Gently brush out all of your curls using a boar bristle brush, stopping when you get the desired fingerwave that frames your face perfectly," he says. "Ideally you want the wave to follow your bone structure, opening your eye and slimming the cheekbones. To get this effect, place a clip in the groove in line with your right eyebrow and another below your cheekbone." Then, brush out the crown section and lay it over the teased section at the nape of your neck, using bobby pins to secure it into the elastics (which helps it stay better)," Fugate notes. 7. Pin up any loose hanging tendrils. "Gather and pin the hair from the front section, tucking it up under itself and bobby pinning it to give you that faux bob look all the way around," he adds. "Then, use some hairspray to keep everything in place. 8. Finish by putting on a sparkly headband!
