Look Like Hayley Williams

Hayley Williams is the punk lead singer of the popular band Paramore. She has vibrant, ever changing hair, an edgy personality, and a great voice. Looking like Hayley Williams is the first step toward achieving her level of coolness.

Steps

Getting Hayley’s Vivid Hair

1. Go bright red or orange. And we’re talking Kool-Aid red. Obviously fake looking red. This is Hayley’s signature look. She usually dyes her red or orange hair to shock.
   • She’s even been seen with her hair dyed half orange-red and half bright pink. Sometimes her red hair has an orange hue.
   • At other times, it’s a vibrant candy apple red color. Hayley first started dying her hair orange when she was 13, and she constantly goes back to the look.
2. Change your hair color frequently. Although you will usually see Hayley with orange or orange/red hair, she’s also dyed her hair other vibrant colors. Hayley tried going platinum blonde once, but she didn’t like the look.
   • Hayley has also been seen with bright turquoise-blue short hair. She has also dyed her hair with alternating green and orange streaks. It’s best to play with different looks by using non-permanent color or even hair chalk. That way you won’t be stuck with blue hair for long!
   • She’s even been seen with her hair dyed like a rainbow. She once dyed her bangs purple and left the rest of her hair orange.
3. Wear bangs. Hayley is a fan of bangs. Her bangs are cut irregularly, so they don’t all fall at the same length. They are thick, and she usually has a few long wisps of hair at the side by her ears.
   • Occasionally, Hayley will push her bangs over to the left, where they fall about at the level of her eyebrow. She’s also worn her bangs very short, a few inches above her eyes. The bottom line is that Hayley is a fan of bangs, and she plays with them in different ways.
   • Hayley has even shaved some of the hair on the right side of her head, which is a dramatic look next to bangs. Typically, though, she goes for pieced bangs that have a bit of a shag to them.
4. Get layers. Hayley’s hair is heavily layered. It’s not usually too long. She is a fan of hair that falls to her shoulders or just past them.
   • She’s also worn much shorter looks, though. The one look you will almost never see Hayley wearing, though, is very long hair.
   • Hayley’s hair is often cut with jagged ends. She usually wears it straight from the eyes down, but more layered at the top.

Getting Hayley’s Makeup

1. Watch her web series. Hayley actually created a makeup web series called “Kiss Off.” In the debut video, she joins with her hair and makeup stylist to show fans how to get one of her most dramatic looks.
   • In the first episode, they explain how to create her flame cat-eye makeup. She said she considers the look to be inspirational. Flames drawn with makeup come out of her eyes.
   • To get this look, first, her makeup artist applies foundation. Then, he uses a red lip pencil to draw the flame on each eye, with the first point of the flame at the end of the brow and the other point in the middle of her eyebrow. Then, it’s filled in to create the bright red flames.
   • Then, he uses black eyeliner to create a triangle on the corner of the eye and to line the bottom lash line with black pencil as well as the top of the eye. Then, he applies mascara, and brushes peachy pink blusher on the apples of Hayley’s cheeks.
2. Use brightly colored eyeliner. Hayley is not a fan of the typical smoky eye with black eyeliner look. That’s too predictable for her.
   • Instead, she is often seen wearing pastel green or blue eye liner that she uses in the waterline of her eyes as well as on the lower and upper lash lines.
   • Hayley often tops the look off by applying pastel eyeshadow in frosted white and blue green colors. She sweeps the white eyeshadow up to the eyebrow and applies the darker shades of blue green on the lid, extending to the corner of the eye.
   • When she does wear black eyeliner, it’s usually dramatically applied liquid liner that she puts only on her upper lash line extending out from the corner of the eye to form a cat eye look.
3. Wear orange or red lipstick. Hayley usually has color on her lips, and she often goes with bold colors to match her hair.
   • One of her favorite lipstick colors is an orange-red color that you will see her wear when her hair is tinted more orange in color.
   • She has also been seen wearing dark, deep red lipstick. Occasionally she tints her lips with just a little peach or orange color, but Hayley is not a fan of subtle colors.

Getting Hayley’s Style

1. Go for the punk look. Hayley Williams has a punk edge. In fact, she’s been called a “true punk princess.” She generally stays true to a rock star vibe.
   • Stay pale. To pull off the punk look, you will usually see Hayley with pale skin. She doesn’t often have a tan. That’s not her look. Don't show much cleavage. She has more of a thrift store, tomboy, punk look.
   • Get an ankle tattoo. Hayley has an ankle tattoo that says “shave me.” She also has a cross tattoo on her thigh that she sometimes reveals when she wears short skirts.
2. Accessorize with an edge. Hayley isn’t seen with a lot of baubles. Instead, she uses edgy accessories, which play up her nerdy side.
   • For example, she’s worn dark black nerd glasses. She wore a black bowtie as a necklace at the MTV Music Awards.
   • She wears faux fur, and has been seen in a cheetah jacket. She likes to wear scarves, sometimes with unusual patterns on them.
3. Wear printed t-shirts. You will often see Hayley wearing t-shirts, especially rocker Ts with edgy sayings on them or featuring other music artists she respects.
   • They can either be fitted or have a looser fit. Be interesting with bold logos and a solid background color. Hayley also wears a lot of band t-shirts and hoodies, such as New Found Glory, The Chariot, H2O and Madness.
   • In a typical look, you might see her with a black t-shirt, a black motorcycle leather jacket, and tight, skinny, neon blue jeans, with silver shoes. She’s also worn sequined blue jeans with combat boots and a cropped leather shirt.
4. Wear skinny jeans with sweaters or jackets. Hayley is often seen in skinny jeans in different colors. She’s worn them in lemon yellow, bright blue, and red.
   • Hayley rounds out her looks with bulky sweaters and black t-shirts, leather jackets, sneakers, and combat boots. She likes stocking caps, leggings, and offbeat shirts.
   • She has said she likes the labels Dogpile, Babygirl Boutique, EC Star, All-Mighty Clothing, and Walmart’s Miley Cyrus and Max Azria. She likes to wear hoodies. She sometimes wears skinny plaid pants with zippers.
5. Wear unusual dresses. Go for the Lucille Ball look. Hayley has commented that she loves Lucille Ball's style. That’s why, when she dresses up, you might see her in an A-line pattern skirt.
   • Her clothing is never predictable. She went to one awards show in a dress meant to resemble a plastic shopping bag.
   • For another awards show, she wore a black sequined top with pink feathered skirt. Another Hayley look: A plaid skirt with leopard print belt and olive green sweater. She once showed up on the red cart wearing high-waisted military pants.

Tips

• Remember to always be true to yourself.
• Try not to show too much cleavage. Hayley is NOT known for a trashy style

Warnings

• You may become obsessed with being someone you're not. Take tips from Hayley, but do not base your life around it.
• Applying her eye makeup may take a long time.
• Avoid the typical 'scene girl' look, as this will only make you look like a poser without a mind of your own. Wear unique things that set you apart from the crowd.
• Wearing bright colors is good for this look, and it makes a major statement...but don't go overboard or you will look like a clown.
