Yu-Gi-Oh! fans, it’s time to spike it up. Literally.
Konami Cross Media NY, Inc. has officially announced Yu-Gi-Oh! HAIR DAY, a bold new partnership with THE BEST PASTE.™, bringing the over-the-top anime hairstyles of Yami Yugi and Seto Kaiba into your bathroom mirror.
Yu-Gi-Oh! Hair, Real-World Hold

Yu-Gi-Oh! has never been known for subtlety, especially when it comes to hair. From Yugi’s iconic five-tone flame spikes to Kaiba’s precision-perfect blade cut, these gravity-defying styles have become signature looks in anime history. Now, with this brand-new line of Yu-Gi-Oh! branded hair paste, fans can finally sculpt their hair into duelist-tier masterpieces.
A Stylish Fusion of Brands

THE BEST PASTE.™, founded by celebrity grooming expert Kristan Serafino, is the high-performance styling line of choice for names like Ryan Reynolds, Matthew McConaughey, and Machine Gun Kelly. Known for crafting custom styling solutions, the brand now sets its sights on something even more ambitious: anime hair.

Serafino said it best: “With these pastes, we’re not copying anime hair, we’re capturing that duelist spirit. Whether you lean into Yugi’s wild passion or Kaiba’s sharp precision, it’s about wearing your confidence like a signature card.”
Each formula is tailored to a specific character’s style: one for fearless spikes, the other for sleek dominance. Both are designed with maximum hold and creative expression in mind.
A Hair-Raising Announcement

“We are pleased to introduce this fun, and should I say, hair-raising, way for our fans to engage with the Yu-Gi-Oh! brand,” said Jennifer Coleman, SVP of Marketing and Licensing at Konami Cross Media NY. “This is a partnership that can provide organic growth for each brand with a whole lot of creativity and fun for our fans.”
THE BEST PASTE.™ will be rolling out limited-edition packaging, duel-themed style guides, and social media tutorials to help fans channel their inner Yugi or Kaiba.
Yu-Gi-OH! Hair Has Entered the Chat

Beyond just cosplay, this collab invites fans to walk out the door with anime-level confidence, whether you’re spiking up for a tournament, a convention, or just your Tuesday. It’s style meets nostalgia with a killer hold.
