And let’s be honest — part of the magic is in the hair. Those gravity-defying ponytails, candy-pink twin tails, and shimmering silver cuts have sparked countless TikTok recreations and cosplay tutorials. Some fans want to become their favorite characters for fun, while others are just parents trying to nail the perfect Halloween look for their kids (or themselves — no judgment!). Well, since you’re here, let’s dive into how to get those signature Rumi, Mira, and Zoey hair looks from K-Pop Demon Hunters .

Rumi’s Purple High Ponytail

Rumi's signature hairstyle—a bold purple high braided ponytail. This look has captivated fans worldwide, inspiring countless recreations on platforms like TikTok. Below are easy, natural-feeling steps to make it a bit simpler.

For a visual guide, check out @abbyluxe's TikTok tutorial, which offers step-by-step instructions to achieve this iconic hairstyle.

How to Achieve Rumi's Look:

• Detangle & prep: Brush through, then spritz a light texturizer or sea-salt spray so the hair has grip; if you want Rumi’s color or extra volume, clip in purple extensions at the crown.
• Dutch braid: Start a Dutch braid at the hairline: cross the outer strands under the middle strand (that’s what makes it pop), adding hair from the sides as you go—keep it tight and centered so it stands proud like Rumi’s braid.
• Finish: Set with a hold hairspray and add any purple glitter spray or small decorative beads/clips for stage-ready flash.

Zoey’s Sleek Twin Mini Buns

Zoey’s look in the film is equal parts cute and tactical — think playful idol energy with zero compromise on fight-ready polish. In the scenes where she darts across neon-lit rooftops, her sleek baby bangs and low twin mini buns stay perfectly in place.

How to recreate Zoey’s hair:

• Prep: Detangle and smooth hair with a lightweight smoothing serum. Blow-dry straight (or flat-iron) for a glossy finish.
• Bangs: Keep short, blunt baby bangs (or trim/clip in a faux fringe) that sit just above the brows. Gently pull a couple of soft strands loose to frame your face.
• Section: Make a clean center part and divide hair into two low sections at the nape (just above the hairline).
• Braid & bun: For each side, do a small three-strand or Dutch braid from the nape into a short rope, then twist into a compact mini bun and secure with pins/elastics.
• Finish: Smooth flyaways with a bit of pomade or light hairspray for that animated, stage-ready gloss.
• Quick tip: If you don’t want to trim bangs, clip-in bangs or a thin wig fringe works great for a one-night look.

Mira’s Half-Up, Super-Long Twin Ponytails

Mira’s look is half-up, half-down—two high twin ponytails on the crown while the rest of her hair streams straight and ridiculously long (think thigh-length). It’s sleek, dramatic, and—of the trio—one of the easiest to achieve if you use extensions.

How to Achieve Mira’s Look:

• Detangle & prep: Brush through and smooth with a lightweight serum or smoothing cream; blow-dry or flat-iron for a glossy, frizz-free finish.
• Section (half up): Create a clean center part, then separate the top half of the hair (ear to ear) from the bottom half.
• High twin ponytails: Gather the top half into two high ponytails at the crown—place them symmetrically and secure with strong elastics.
• Quick tip: Mira’s hair in the film is incredibly long—almost thigh-length—so clip-in straight extensions are your best friend here. Add them to your hair for that sleek, dramatic finish.
