Hannah Montana Halloween Costumes – Let’s Talk about the Hair and Makeup

Want to find unique Hannah Montana Halloween costumes but can’t afford the time and effort it takes to make one from scratch? Well there is a solution.

Very few people have the time or talent to make an outfit from scratch. We all have busy lives. We work, do carpool, make dinner, run to the gym, and basically fill up every waking hour with chores. Who has the time or energy to worry about putting together a totally original Halloween costume. I prefer to buy one of the great costumes available on the web and then spend my time making the costume unique by styling it.

Every fashionista, including models and actors, have their own stylist. The stylist is in charge of taking clothes and turning them into knockout outfits. Fashion stylists are responsible for bringing life to a fashion occasion, whether that is a fashion shoot, a stage performance, or a walk down the red carpet. They create the mood by selecting the appropriate props, fashions, accessories to fit the theme. They coordinate colors and styles, adding just the right accessories, perfecting the makeup and hair, and turning the clothes into a fashion event. They take a store bought item and make it stand out. So lets take our purchased Hannah Montana Halloween costume and make it rock by being your own stylist.

If your daughter has long blonde hair, she can wear it straight with bangs and you already have the Hannah Montana rock star hair. You can look at some pictures online and duplicate the Hannah Montana style that best fits your daughter.

If your daughter’s hair isn’t blonde, you might want to purchase a wig or buy some temporary hair color – usually a spray – that is available around Halloween. Go to your local CVs and you are sure to find one of those temporary spray in hair colors. A safer choice, in my opinion, is to buy a wig, or to buy a costume that comes with a wig. That way you can be certain to avoid any hair disasters that can strip away the fun of Halloween.

Always check to see what your costumes comes with before you go any further. But if it did not come with all the accessories, here is a plan. First, a must have is an oversized, sparkly metallic belt. This will add glitter to the Hannah Montana Halloween outfit. Find something that your daughter will want to wear with her regular clothes so you make the best use of your money. If you have a belt around that you are willing to decorate, you can go to any craft store and use some hot glue to decorate your belt with sequins or other sparkly decorations. Be sure you do not decorate the part of the belt that needs to go in the loop or it probably won’t fit through. If you do not have the right type of belt, then take a scarf and tie it in place of the belt. Tie it over a belt so it still looks like a belt and not just a scarf.

Next, determine what type of jewelry will be best with the outfit. You can consider a small necklace or large silver cuff bracelet. Just be careful not to over-do it with the jewelry. You are better cutting back rather than wearing too much. You are only trying to add a bit of sparkle, and you don’t want to detract from the overall look of the outfit.

Finally, let’s put together a plan for the makeup. You must get the makeup right so your young Hannah looks like she is a rock star ready to perform on stage. Take care of those brows. Hannah Montana has well defined eyebrows. Pluck, if needed so you define your own natural arch. Then fill in the brows with a light brown eye shadow using a stiff brush, or you can use a light brown eye brown pencil. Just keep your brows light (no dark brown pencils) but keep them well-defined. Hannah Montana always has a great tan complexion. The easiest way to get this tan is to use a little bronzer. Use a real light touch. Next, a little blush to set off that great tan. Use a little pink, rose, or peach blush. I love the peach blush with the Gold Hannah Montana Halloween costumes. If you are using a powder blush, take a small brush, shake off the excess, and gently apply to the apples of your cheeks. Do it lightly, and then reapply until you get the shade you are looking for. Add some lip gloss and you are done.

You and your daughter can have a blast with this. Become your own Hannah Montana stylist and turn your favorite store bought costume into a unique Rock Star fashion event.
