For comic con I'm going as Kakihara


Got everything today I need for my Kakihara outfit for comic con in May. I'm going with the Manga version of the character because it's a lot more easy to pull off. So, got some clip on earrings(my God do they hurt like crazy. How can people wear these things?), some nose rings that my sis says we can with ease bend into clip on lip rings. I got a black wig which is in emo style, which was the closest thing I could get to his style of hair. There was a wig that was a bit closer to the look, but with shipping from Amazon it would have taken to long to get to me. So, I had to settle, but it still is close enough. I got face make up for the cuts(and I'll have to draw on the facial hair, couldn't find anything that fit the bill. Will look a bit silly, but it will work.)

I already own a business suit(in the manga he wore a simple business suit). So, I'm all set. I should get the wig in the mail mid April which will work just fine.

So, it wont be 100% right on, but it will be pretty blasted close and I will have fun seeing if anyone can guess who I am.

Flower power is too much for the dragonzord!

Try ripping a cotton ball into smaller pieces and putting a smaller shred of it behind your ear where the clip goes. See if that will alleviate some pressure. You should also try googling and seeing what advice others have though, I'm sure there are tricks to help. I actually have mine pierced so I don't know what clip ons are like.

Your costume sounds awesome. I would definitely recognize it and flip if I saw you at a con! Have fun.
