John Rocha.jpgIf you'll be celebrating Halloween this weekend (there's still two days to go till the actually holiday remember, plenty of time to get some extra pumpkin carving in) we're keeping the Halloween how to's coming - today: how to get witchy, tousled hair, courtesy of Nicky Clarke!

This is the perfect hairstyle for someone who wants to look spookily dishevelled, but still sophisticated and pretty. Hollywood messy if you will, like when girls in The Vampire Diaries magically wake up in the morning with mascara on.

Anyway, Nicky has provided instructions for creating this look, like the one we saw at John Rocha AW12, and it's super easy - all it involves is a hairdryer and hairspray!

1. Roughly blast your hair with the hairdryer until it is 70% dry and then leave the rest to dry naturally (Nicky recommends his Nicky Clarke Pro Salon Dryer as the advanced shine technology will keep hair glossy and sleek).
2. Once hair has completely dried, backcomb random sections and spritz into place with Nicky Clarke Hold and Shine Ultimate Hairspray (£10).

Et voila! Big, creepy Halloween hair with a pretty, fashion edge.
