There are many ways to make temporary gray hair to complete your makeup. A quick solution is to apply talcum powder or white makeup powder to your hair, then spray the powder to adhere to the hair. You can also use hairspray or gray hair powder to temporarily dye your hair for a more realistic effect.
Steps
Powder on hair

Dip a cotton ball or makeup brush into the white powder. Buy powdered white makeup, baby powder, or cornstarch. Pour the powder into the bowl and dip the puff or makeup brush into the powder. [1] X Research Source

Apply chalk along the sides of the temples. Begin dressing up gray hair by using a puff or brush to brush the hair along the temples, adding more powder if necessary. Although the chalk is white, your natural hair color will shine out making it look gray. [2] X Research Source
- If you want to look a bit older, you can simply apply powder to the temples, because the hair in the temple area usually goes gray first.
- Concentrate the powder from the roots down, especially the hair around the face. Hair is inherently gray from the roots, so this way will help you have more natural gray hair.
- Don’t let the powder get on your face. Wipe it off with a damp cloth if it gets on your forehead or neck.

Sprinkle powder on hair. If you want to have white hair all over your head, sprinkle powder on your hair. Do this by leaning over the sink and sprinkling a pinch of powder through your hair. You can put a towel around your shoulders, as the chalk will fall on your shoulders and make a mess. [3] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/ba/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-4-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-4-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ b/ba/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-4-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-4-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Brush all over hair. After sprinkling the powder on the top of your head, use your fingers to brush the powder all over your hair, starting from the top of your head, then smoothing it down to the hairline.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/0e/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-5-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-5-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 0/0e/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-5-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-5-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Spray hairspray. Once you have powdered and smoothed your hair, spray your hair with hairspray so that the powder adheres to your hair. [4] X Research Sources
- The white powder will wash off after you wash your hair with shampoo.
Use white grease
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/53/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-6-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-6-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 5/53/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-6-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-6-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Dip the toothbrush in white or gray grease. Buy specialized white or gray makeup grease that people often use to dress up clowns, available at costume or Halloween stores. Dip the toothbrush into the grease to cover the brush completely. [5] X Research Sources
- Fat chalk will stick more than chalk and cause less mess.
- If you have long hair and have to apply grease all over your head, your hair will be heavier and stiffer than when using powder.
- Either white or gray grease is effective. If you just apply it lightly, your natural hair color will still shine through the grease and your hair will be gray even if you use white.

Use a toothbrush to brush the grease all over your hair. Brush the grease all over your hair in a similar way to powder, starting at the hairline around the temples and at the forehead and working all over the head. [6] X Research Sources
- Brush gently and layer by layer; If you apply too much grease in one spot, your hair may become patchy.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e6/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-8-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-8-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ e/e6/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-8-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-8-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Use a hairbrush to apply grease all over your head. If you want a dramatic effect with all gray hair, use a hairbrush to brush the grease. Apply a thin layer of grease to the top of the hair brush and comb through the hair until the desired effect is achieved. [7] X Research Sources
- The grease will be washed off after you wash your hair with shampoo.
Use temporary gray hairspray
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a3/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-9-Version-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-9-Version-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ a/a3/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-9-Version-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-9-Version-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Comb your hair with a wide comb. Use a wide comb to comb through the hair, then comb a section of hair on one side of the face and stop at the half of the hair shaft. [8] X Research Sources
- Combing your hair is to separate loose strands, so you can spray the glue more evenly.
- If you have short hair, you don’t need to comb it all over your head.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a2/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-10-Version-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-10-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ a/a2/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-10-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-10-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Spray gray glue on the top of your hair. Keeping the comb in your hair, spray gray or silver hairspray over the top of the comb in a thin, even layer. If you have short hair, just spray the glue all over the head to evenly. Spray in layers if you want a stronger effect. [9] X Research Source
- You can find gray or silver temporary spray at most cosmetic and Halloween stores.
- Silver hairspray is more common, but it can have a metallic effect, so it’s best to check the packaging or ask the store clerk before buying silver hairspray.
- Hairspray is very effective at coloring your hair, but it can make your hair stiff depending on how much glue you use.

Take the comb down to the ends of your hair and spray the glue. Once you’ve sprayed the tops of the strands you’re combing, you’ll brush down the length of your hair and spray the hairspray onto the ends. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/38/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-12-Version-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-12-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 3/38/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-12-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-12-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Comb and spray the rest of the hair. Repeat the action of spraying glue all over the head, take the comb down to the middle of the hair, spray the glue from the top down to the comb position, then comb the rest and continue to spray. Use a mirror to look at the back of your head and apply glue until you are satisfied with the result. [11] X Research Source
- Colored hairspray usually holds color through 1-3 shampoo washes. [12] X Research Source
Use hair dye
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e3/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-13-Version-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-13-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ e/e3/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-13-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-13-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Wet hair and chalk. Buy gray or silver hair dye at a cosmetic store and dip the tip of the chalk in the water. Use a water spray to moisten your hair. [13] X Research Source
- Hair chalk has a very strong pigment, much stronger than sidewalk chalk, even stronger than painter’s chalk.

Pull out a section of hair. Comb your hair to separate the strands, then grab the ends of a section of hair and pull it away from your face.

Rub the chalk along the hair you are holding. Starting at the roots, rub the wetted powder down to coat the hair. [14] X Research Source

Dye the rest of the hair. Repeat pulling out a section of hair and rubbing the gray chalk into the hair. You may have to re-wet the tip of the chalk several times if you have long hair.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d5/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-17-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-17-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ d/d5/Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume-Step-17-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Your-Hair-Look-Gray-for-a-Costume- Step-17-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Use heat to help the powder adhere to your hair. After you have powdered all over your hair, wait 1 minute, then blow-dry your hair so that the color stays on your hair all day. If you want to keep your hair color for a few days, you can use a straightener or curling iron for gray hair to make the color last longer.

Spray glue on your hair. Hair dye often washes off when brushing on clothes. If you don’t use hairspray, you should spray it all over your hair to make sure it doesn’t run off. [15] X Research Source
- Hair dye powder will be clean after 1-2 washes with shampoo.
Advice

- You can also use a wig or gray hair extensions.
Things you need
- White makeup powder, baby powder or cornstarch
- White grease
- Comb, toothbrush and/or hairbrush
- Regular hairspray
- Gray or silver hairspray
- Gray or silver hair dye
