The Best Halloween Costume Ideas If You Have Colorful Hair

The Queen of Hearts is one of the best Halloween costumes with red hair. It's easy to achieve with a wig, some fun eye makeup, and some overly rosy cheeks.

Ready to scare some kids? Pennywise is the perfect orange-hair costume. You can make your look as scary as you want with makeup, or you can keep things a little more low-key.

Ariel is the perfect red-hair-costume choice in our opinion. This example features red hair that is accented with seashells, as well as a purple clamshell top.

Looking for a great purple-hair costume? Look no further than this cute garden fairy. You can do whatever you want with this look, but the main thing is to keep it ethereal. Add some pointed ears, a fun flower crown, and lots of blush.

Grant someone's wish with this Wanda pink-hair costume. Double points if you can find someone to dress up as Cosmo with you.

This butterfly look could be done with any color of hair, but we love it as a white-hair costume. This example features heavy-duty makeup on the forehead, but you could easily get a similar look with a fun butterfly-themed eye mask.

Throw in some colored contacts to top off your white-hair costume as Storm from X-Men.

If you're a fan of "The Little Mermaid," the perfect white-hair costume for you is Ursula. Top the look off with a crown, rhinestones, and colorful eye makeup.

Sadness from "Inside Out" makes such a great blue-hair costume. If you already have blue hair, you're set, but you could easily throw on a blue wig, some blue face paint, and some large glasses and be ready to go.

Ready for a throwback? Blue from "Blue's Clues" makes such a great blue-hair costume. Get some fun blue doggy ears and paint some spots on yourself and you're ready to go.

We love the look of this Elf blue-hair costume. You can add on some plastic pointed ears, some blue lipstick, and a few flowers as well.

Oompa, loompa, doopity, doo, we have the perfect green-hair costume for you. You'll need some orange face paint, but after that, you're basically set.

We love the idea of Shego for a green-hair costume. The full bodysuit might be hard to find, but you can probably find something close to her look on Amazon.

Always a classic green-hair costume: the Joker. This example features white face paint with purple accents. We especially love the rhinestones and glitter featured throughout.

If Pennywise is a little too intense for you, this classic clown costume is a great choice for anyone with orange hair. You can complete the look with orange lipstick and some orange eyeshadow.

If you're a Miley fan, this Ashley O costume is perfect if you want to show off your purple hair. Grab a white t-shirt and you're essentially set.

Want a trippy look to go with your purple hair? We love this skeleton bride. The look can essentially be done with any color hair, but we think the purple really makes the skeleton details stand out.

In the name of the moon, someone, please wear this Sailor Moon costume this Halloween; we're begging you. This look pulls it all together with star freckles, which we're genuinely obsessed with.

There is no cuter yellow-hair costume than Pikachu, and that's a fact. Add yellow body paint and some rosy cheeks, plus two Pika-ears, and you're set.

Looking for a fun multicolored-hair costume? A unicorn is the perfect pick. You can grab a fun unicorn horn on Amazon and top off your look with stunning multicolored eyeshadow.
