Angelina Jolie Halloween Costume Ideas for Every Hair Length

Pam Gaulin
Want to try your hand, or your hair, and your body, at being Angelina Jolie this Halloween? Why not?

If you are set on showing off your own natural locks, and don't want to bother with an uncomfortable wig or fake-looking extension, try one of these Angelina Jolie movie characters for size.

Angelina Jolie Halloween Costume Ideas for Short Hair

Angelina Jolie as Kate Libby in Hackers

If your hair is short, in a cute and dark pixie cut, you'll have to reach way down to the bottom of the Angelina Jolie Halloween costume bin and find some punked out hacker clothes.

You have to reach to the bottom because Hackers was made way back in 1995, not because it was a bad movie. The movie rocked. And so did Angelina Jolie as Kate Libby, or Acid Burn.

Costume options: An almost '80s style bright red and white jacket, short skirt and big black boots. Or, go for an all-white outfit, although you may be confused for Trinity from The Matrix.

Be sure to talk about computers a lot.

Angelina Jolie Halloween Costume Ideas for Mid-Length Hair

Mid-length hair can be tightly fastened into a bun, or French twist, and covered with a hat. Wear a tight-fitting shiny latex or black uniform. Nobody will know who you are until you add the patch.

Halloween Costumes for Long Hair

Lara Croft in Tomb Raider

For women (or men) with naturally long hair who want to dress up as Angelina Jolie, there are a lot more options than if your hair is short and layered.

The Halloween costume idea you pick all depends on the Angelina Jolie character you want to play on Halloween.

For the intellectual, kick-butt-while-still-remaining superior-and-PG-13-types, go for the Lara Croft look. The advantage to the Lara Croft look is that it is the most recognizable Angelina Jolie costume of all the Halloween costume ideas.

Even if your hair is not long, it is easy enough to slick it all back and purchase a really long ponytail extension to complete the look.

As for the clothes, choosing Lara Croft gives you some options. For anyone in tip-top form, choose a full body silver leotard and strap on the thigh and calf holsters, and a big black belt. Black boots complete the look.

Or, for warm weather and sexy legs go for the Lara Croft Halloween costume idea that uses a plain white tank top, shorts and boots with the holsters.

The must-have items for any Lara Croft costume are an ankle holster for a fake knife, a thigh-holster for a fake gun, and the right attitude.

Jane Smith in Mr. and Mrs. Smith

The thigh-holster can also accommodate your Mrs. Smith look, if you're going to a more formal affair.

For the Mrs. Smith look, wear a long, black formal gown, heels, perfect hair and make up, and add the holster. Brad Pitt on your arm is optional.

Olympias in Alexander

Another look that you can accomplish with long hair is Olympias in Alexander. This fun Halloween costume idea involves braiding your long hair, or taking most of it up, with styled tendrils falling out.

Add a crown, big gold jangly earrings, a large bangle, and a toga-like dress and gold sandals.

Angelina Jolie Halloween Costume Ideas for Blond Hair

Even blonds can play Angelina Jolie for Halloween. As long as your hair is also long, that is.

For your Halloween costume, choose from the following roles:

Lisa Rowe in Girl Interrupted or Sara 'Sway' Wayland in Gone in Sixty Seconds.

Have fun playing Angelina Jolie this Halloween, with these costume ideas that accommodate your hair length.

    You forgot the bleached blond mid-length hair of the movie where she was a reporter who thought she was going to die. I can't think of the name of it. But she looked amazing as a blond.
