Who should I cosplay as?!


Question Posted Friday August 1 2008, 2:01 am

okay so I need cosplay ideas, I might be going to Youmacon this year and Im drawing blanks, I need something thats not too complicated.. I can sew, but I'd be a tight budget either way.

I'm 17 with an average build, the tricky part is my curly hair... I would really prefer not to mess with my hair, but most characters have straight hair.
I was thinking Hana from fruits basket...but thats a bit toooo simple, I do want to do something fun!
<3 im open to any suggestions!

First off, you can ALWAYS look into some wigs to use for the cosplay. Many people invest in a wig or two for certain anime characters, as they do tend to have pink or blue hair :) So, that is always an option, especially that you can find outrageous colored wigs for fairly cheap now.

As for specific anime characters with curly hair (taken from various websites for wide selection):

Molly and Mimette from Sailor Moon

Mihoshi from Tenchi Muyo

Hinaichigo, Shinku, and Kanaria from Rozen Maiden

Mitsuki and Full Moon from Full Moon O Sagashite

Mila Rose from Bleach

Oruha from Clover

Reira and Junko from Nana

Juri from Utena

Yuzuki from Chobits

Charlotte from Golden Age

Hiro from Hidamari Sketch

Anti-Spiral Nia from Gurren-Lagann

Himawari from xxxHolic

Aoi Futaba from You're Under Arrest

Shimako from Maria-sama ga Miteru

Alexiel from Angel Sanctuary

...as you may have noticed, some of them have different colored hair than yours so that also may be a problem for you if you're not willing to dye yours. You can probably get your hair dyed fairly cheaply though, but in the end a good wig might be a better choice for that sort of thing.

Another suggestion from a website I saw was to have your hair braided to match that of a specific characters. SO, if you know of any characters with braids that may be a good option for you too.

I hope you figure out what you want to do for your cosplay coming up :) Have fun!
