How to start doing crazy hair styles?
Wash your hair, if necessary.
Crazy hair styles sometimes require the use of hair products like styling devices and hairsprays. To avoid product build-up, it is advisable to wash your hair before putting up your hair for styling. However, your hair has to be washed at least a day before for your hair to hold up properly, especially if you’re attempting an updo. Should you find the need to wash your hair, expertsadvise you to use the appropriate shampoo and conditioner for your hair.
Dry your hair.
Here’s a general rule: avoid styling your hair when damp or wet (except for certain hair styling techniques, of course). Your hair is more stretchable when wet, and putting up your hair in a bun, braid, or ponytail will only cause tension when your hair starts to dry up. Wait for your hair to dry, or use a hair dryer before putting up your chosen crazy hairstyle.
Get creative!
There is no limit to how crazy and creative you can get when doing fun hairstyles! You can color your hair, braid it, twist it, or adorn it with colorful clips. The possibilities are just endless! Use the images and style guides above for inspiration, or create your own crazy hairstyle.
General tips for creating crazy hair styles
Bleach and colorants.
Hairstyles aren’t all about twists and braids; you can also bring it to the next level by coloring your hair!
The downside to this, however, is that bleach and hair colorants are a bit harsh to the scalp and may cause your hair to dry. When bleaching/coloring your hair, make sure to use the right amount of bleach/colorant and oxidizer. Don’t forget to use moisturizing hair products after!
Styling devices.
When doing crazy hair styles, it’s inevitable to use hair styling devicesthat use heat. Should you find the need to use one, make sure to use aheat protectantto avoid damage and breakage. This one is crucial, especially when doing your kids’ hair.
Braids and weaves.
When doing braids, make sure not to keep them too tight. Braiding your hair too tight can cause your hair to break and may even cause headaches.
Another tip–if you want to keep your braids sleek and clean, get yourself a spritz bottle. That way, you won’t have to style your hair while it’s still wet and fresh from the shower. You won’t also have to pull on your hair tightly to achieve a cleaner look.
Don’t pull on the hair too much.
Braided or not, putting your hair up in a crazy hairstyle would need you to pull on your hair to put it in place. This tip is a bit obvious, but here’s a reminder not to pull on the hair too much! Doing so may cause hair breakage and scalp irritation.
Don’t put too much hair product.
Crazy hair styles may require you to put styling products onto your hair to hold it in place. But remember, too much of anything is never good, especially when it comes to hair products that may cause damage to your hair. Should you find the need to use hair products, make sure, it’s safe for use, especially for kids.
Don’t do crazy hairstyles when wet.
Your hair is a lot stretchable when wet, so putting up a style while your hair is still drying may cause damage to your mane when it’s finally dry. Apart from that, it is definitely harder to style aesthetic hairstyleswhen it’s still wet. If you’re running a bit late, get yourself a hairdryer and let the device do its job.

Whether it’s for Halloween, a costume party, or a crazy hair day at your child’s school, doing unique and unusual hairstyles is a great and easy way to show your personality! If you need inspiration, you can follow our styling guide or create a hairstyle that is completely your own!
