There are so many moving parts to making sure your Halloween costume turns out just as great in real life as you initially imagine it to be. One thing that’ll always take your Halloween transformation to the next level is a hair-color change.

Of course, you can always opt to wear a wig if you want to transform yourself without the potential mess and added work, but in some cases, dyeing your natural base can appear more natural.

Plus, some of the best ones out there are easy to use and gentle on hair.
