Red Queen (Queen of Hearts) | Halloween Hairstyles


Remember Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland from 2010? Helena Bonham Carter’s portrayal of the Red Queen was spot on, and I’ve always wanted to tackle a more realistic movie-inspired hairstyle by the Queen of Hearts!

Today, we will be teaching you how to create this cute Queen of Hearts updo hairstyle!
In preparation, I will show you how to create and use hair padding with a few products that you can find at your local beauty supply store. Hair padding is used to create volume for very intricate hair features, many of which you’ve probably noticed in fashion shows, movies, etc. It’s a fun technique and can really broaden your arsenal of styles once you get the hang of how to use it.
We found this beautiful Queen of Hearts costume/dress, among others, from the amazing Ella Dynae on Etsy. We’ve used dresses from her before, and she’s simply amazing!

When I was trying to match this style with one of my girls, Rylan was immediately who I thought for this tutorial. She dropped in the role perfectly, as you can see from the rolling intro shots of the video tutorial below!  Wow, they grow up so fast!
