11 Of The Coolest Halloween Wigs You Can Buy
Halloween is almost here, and for the spookiest among us, it's a pretty exciting time. The best part of the holiday is pulling of the perfect costume. Depending on what you decide to be, you might need to hunt for some of the most over-the-top, wild, and unique Halloween wigs to complete your outfit.
Although some higher-quality wigs may come with a heftier price tag for your costume, think if it this way: If you know how to look after a wig, it can last you for many years and multiple costumes. If you learn how to style a wig too, then you can buy yourself some versatility. Instead of just wearing it for Halloween, you can wear it to the club on a Friday night because why not?
While you're on the hunt for the coolest, most unique wigs out there, consider the investment and just how crucial it is to your costume. Sometimes, your wig is the costume. It may feel decadent to spend more than $20 on a wig when your past wigs all came from drug stores or were included in your costume, but for the quality and originality of these pieces, the pricier ones are totally worth it and the low-cost wigs are too good to pass up.
1. Long Blue Braids

2. Black To Blue To Pink Ombre

6. Pink Ponytail
Princess Dark Pink Ponytail Wig, $35.99, Epic Cosplay

7. Lumpy Space Princess
Lumpy Space Princess Wig, $60, Dolluxe
This amazing lilac beehive would be incredibly cool even if it wasn't referencing the sassiest (and best) Adventure Time character of all time. Whether you use this for a Lumpy Space Princess costume or not, it's an amazing wig either way.
8. Pop Art

The pop art makeup trend has definitely made the rounds, but on Halloween, you can take the look to the next level and get as elaborate as you please. This pop art wig will make your hair look perfectly illustrated — and the cut is pretty cute, too.
9. Raspberry Curls
Nicki Classic Wig, $35, Arda-Wigs
This wig is available in 13 colors, ranging from natural tones to totally ridiculous ones, like this raspberry color. The tight knit curls aren't a style you see often on wigs, which means this particular wig will definitely stand out in a crowd.
10. Mint Green Pigtails
Rhea Mint Green Wig, $45.99, Epic Cosplay
This wig may not seem out of place at a cosplay event but at the club, it'll definitely be one of the coolest wigs there. From its on trend pastel tones to the perfect curls, this wig will definitely give you a serious look.
11. Marie Antoinette
Deluxe Marie Antoinette Wig, $39.99, Amazon
This Marie Antoinette wig may seem like you could only wear it for a period costume, but wearing it with a more modern look could create some cool contrasts — maybe a Hipster Marie Antoinette costume? Imagine the possibilities.
Pair your cool wig with a contrasting outfit for an edgier look or conversely, or stay as true and authentic to your character as possible with a wig that perfectly replicates that character's look. Either way, be comfortable in the knowledge that no matter who or what you're dressed up as, your wig is the best one in the room.
