DIY Curly Hair Costume Ideas

Curly hair is the perfect accessory for any costume or dress up opportunity...it just takes everything up a notch! The hardest part is figuring out what you want to be! Let the Curly Costume fun begin!

This biggest challenge can be finding time in your busy schedule to plan out your costume. Is is such a time saver to be able to pull something together with items from your own closet and accessories you may have laying around the house. Plus, its more fun to DIY your costume than to spend tons of money on something you only wear for a few hours. You will be surprised how easy it is to be festive and take part in the fun with just a few ideas of inspiration!

This look is especially easy if your days are filled and time is a factor. This look comes together rather quickly and  works perfectly on multi-day curls. Find your favorite silk elastic headband or bandana scarf to start your transformation. Next divide hair into 2 small sections near the front of the face, and braid to add that swashbuckling detail that screams "Arrrgh!"  Add tiny gold cuff embellishments to give just a touch of "treasure" to the look. Refresh curls with Rizos Curls Beach Waves Texturizing Spray to create fullness and body, like a day spent at sea at the wheel of a pirate ship. Round out the look with a corset or ruffled linen blouse with a vest paired with black leggings or skirt and tall boots.

Add an optional eye patch to have everyone admiring your Pirate's Booty!
