Taking inspiration from the biggest beauty trend that emerged at New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2024, ribbon hair makes for a romantic—and easy—Halloween hair look. Celebrity hairstylist Lacy Redway created these “Barre Braids” at Christian Siriano, where she gathered the ends of two braids into a low bun.
