Ideas for School Spirit Week
Many elementary schools host a spirit week event where students arrive with gravity-defying hairstyles. The crazy hair day styles in this collection help kids plan their own looks or just enjoy coloring the wacky concepts. You will find classic ideas like the soda bottle pour, where hair is styled to look like liquid flowing into a cup, alongside sweet pastry-inspired donut buns.
Teachers can use these sheets as a quiet morning activity during spirit week. Students can color the skater boy's star mohawk or the girl with antenna pigtails while discussing how they might recreate these sculptural hairstyles using gel, pipe cleaners, and temporary color spray.
Coloring Complex Hair Art
For older colorists, the patterned hair designs offer a relaxing challenge. These pages blend portraiture with detailed elements like mandalas, musical notes, and natural landscapes. Coloring these sections requires a steady hand and a thoughtful approach to shading.
When working on the flowing tresses that incorporate ocean waves or enchanted forests, consider using a gradient technique. Blending colored pencils from dark roots to lighter ends gives the hair volume. You can also use fine-tipped markers to make the embedded songbirds and swimming fish stand out against the dense hair patterns.
Exploring Texture and Volume
Hair provides an excellent subject for practicing different coloring strokes. The images here feature a wide range of textures, from a tightly coiled flower afro to crimped zigzag wigs and sharp, spiky strands.
Adding unexpected colors like neon green, bright purple, or electric blue to these portraits emphasizes the wild nature of the hairstyles. Colorists can even experiment with metallic gel pens to highlight the structural elements holding the hair together, like the clips and ties in the towering bottle braids.
- Use short, flicking strokes to build up the texture of a messy bird nest bun.
- Apply smooth, sweeping lines to color long, windblown curls.
- Layer multiple shades of the same color to give flat hair designs more dimension.
