I'm going to let you in on a little secret: When it comes to Halloween, if you're bald, the world is your oyster. Long ago, so let's just say "pre-bald you," October 31 probably required some serious effort. You had the whole to wig or not to wig dilemma. (Been there.) You probably stood in front of your bathroom mirror with the inner thought of whether your current haircut could pass as part of the costume. (Also, been there.) And don't even get me started on the whole styling your hair ordeal, but now, thanks to your smooth as hell head, this whole dressing-up thing is a piece of cake.
While the dressing-up piece is a bit easier, you still have the whole "choose your costume" deal to handle. Lucky for you, I did the hard part for you and found some of the best costumes for bald people around. Some will bring laughs, others a bit of scare, but most importantly, they're the kind you can do last-minute. So go forth, and get ready for Halloween 2021 to be as easy as taking giving candy to a baby.
Morpheus from ’The Matrix’
Sure, Laurence Fishburne won't be returning as Morpheus in the upcoming fourth Matrix movie but you can keep the magic alive by going as none other than the man himself this All Hallows Eve.
It doesn't get more late '90s fashion than this.
Noho Hank from ‘Barry’
The most loveable Chechen mobster around, everybody: Mr. Noho Hank! Grab your nearest polo, a nice watch, a sharpie to recreate some of his questionable ink, and you're good to go.
It'll fit nice and snug, just how Hank would like it.
Michael Jordan circa 1995
All those hours spent over-analyzing every little detail from the docuseries The Last Dance should go towards something, right?
