Step 9: Next, create a deep center part. If your hair is long, extend your part from the front of your hairline down to the nape of your neck, creating two even vertical sections of hair.

Step 10: Clipping one section of hair off to the side, gather the opposite section into a tight, high ponytail at the front of your crown. Use a soft bristle brush to slick the sides down evenly as you secure your hair with an elastic.

Step 11: Once your ponytail is secure, wrap the ends around the base of the elastic, forming a bun. Be sure to twist and wrap the hair tightly around the elastic, then use a bobby pin to secure.

Step 12: Repeat steps 3 and 4 with the other side of your hair. Secure your hair into a high ponytail, and then twist, wrap, and secure the ends into a bun using a bobby pin.

Step 13: Tuck away any loose pieces of your hair with bobby pins as necessary, and then finish by misting with a strong-hold hairspray, like TIGI Hard Head Hard Hold Hairspray, $7.99.

It's official -- Miley Cyrus "Can't Be Tamed." The 20-year-old proved to be nothing short of a "Wrecking Ball" at this year's VMAs, letting us all know in no subtle way that she's truly "Someone Else" now. Point taken. As much as we'd like to move on from the madness, "We Can't Stop" talking about it (which was exactly Miley's goal).

While no one seems to approve of Miley's over-the-top antics (at least not openly), that's not stopping everyone --including half our staff and our model Stacey -- from wanting to be her for Halloween. In fact, Miley's VMA look promises to be such a popular Halloween costume this year that her famous foam finger is on serious backorder. For that reason alone, we knew we had to recreate what will surely go down as the most controversial moment of 2013. So without further ado, here is our step-by-step guide to stealing Miley's look for Halloween -- teddy bears not required, but definitely recommended.
