SHARK TANK APPROVED 
It’s time to start considering your Halloween nails in the days leading up to the fun “holiday”. Festive nail designs can enhance the spirit of the season and elevate your costume. If you’re seeking inspiration for your next salon visit, we have curated nine of our favorite Halloween nail ideas for redheads:
1. Skeletons
Keep things spooky but neutral with a skeleton, skull, or bone motif. The white is nice and neutral and won’t draw too much attention to your nails, but they will be obvious up close! Bones look amazing on clear, nude, or black nails and can be done up to look spooky or fun.

2. Bloody
A classic for Halloween time is the blood-red nails. You can even add some blood drips or splatter to make them more on theme. A really cute option is a French tip with blood drips or a blood drip accent nail on an otherwise all-red set.

3. Ghosties
Keep things light and fun with some cute little ghosties. Like bones, the white ghosties can be pretty inconspicuous and look amazing on clear, nude, or black as well as any other on-theme color. If you’re handy with nail art, you could probably even do some ghosts at home.

4. Black Cats
We love black nails for October. If you want to add a Halloween element, try turning your black mani into a black cat. Little black cats can be a cute touch to a French manicure, or a solid nail.

5. Pumpkins
If you’re not a spooky Halloween kind of person, try adding some cute pumpkin motifs to your nails. Little jack-o-lanterns or orange nails with jack-o-lantern faces added can be super cute. You can also try a pumpkin pattern. Pumpkin nails are cute even after Halloween is over.

6. Spider Webs
Adding some little spider webs to your existing mani, or getting a full spider web set is perfect for Halloween. It’s another look that can be done quite subtly and on any length or base color of the nail.

7. Witchy
Moons, stars, and other “witchy” bits can make some stunning nail art. We especially love witchy nails on a black, navy, or deep purple base. Metallic gold and silver can amp up the style and be worn long after Halloween is over.

8. Halloween Theme
If you can’t pick just one Halloween symbol, try doing a full Halloween-themed set. Mix together ghosts, pumpkins, candy, witches, and cats to get a fun little pattern, or do each nail differently!

9. Costume Nails
Enjoy your Halloween nails in the weeks leading up to and then right before Halloween, swap them out for something that goes with your costume. Even if your character doesn’t have specific nails, it’s fun to do a themed set revolving around their persona, or a color that matches their look. If you’re going in body paint, try painting your nails the same color for a more cohesive look.
Rock it like a Redhead!
