I'm looking to start cosplaying this year, but the whole wig situation doesn't sit right with me. Wearing fake plastic hair over hidden real hair is just weird. And it doesn't look convincing most of the time imo.
Why don't more people choose characters which have similar hair to them? Isn't real hair much prettier? You can still do a lot with it and it looks natural too.

using your real hair is lazy and looks like shit 99% of the time in cosplay.
>>
>>10967860
Most characters are going to look like shit with real hair. It's just what it is.

Video game/cartoon/anime characters have more hair density than humans, so even if you have the same hair colour and same hairstyle it will look bad.

I have alopecia totalis and I already got the laugh of cosplaying Lex Luthor once, I can't go back to that well twice.

One year later and I wish you would, too. I'm a retarded codelet and GPT won't tell me how to rip assets off the game. I remember the viewer though.

Ten years later and I got the urge to try and play Gijin Kareshi again because I missed my gays too much.
Does the browser method even work still because I got access to my shit again but I can't click on half the things.
Pressing the button does nothing and even if I work myself around to other parts, I can't click on the gacha to claim shit.

What's your opinion on innacurate cosplays?
Should people just have fun whether or not you look like the character/got a spot-on costume, or does the cosplay has to be perfect?
>>
I personally feel pretty perfectionist about my own stuff, but I don't really mind how scuffed other cosplay can be. Kinda charming really, plus less chance of the cosplayer being some influencer/TikTok dipshit
>>
IMO anything goes provided you aren't entering any competitions. Perfection and skill should be prioritized in those, but as far as just having fun goes, I don't see any reason to judge anyone's cosplay skills.

You need to learn how to vibe and talk to people at conventions. If you're underage that's one thing. If you're old enough you should budget for a hotel room so you can party and party with strangers and make new friends. The best part about conventions is meeting people and subsequently running into them at other cons in other years and it's all so fucking beautiful. It's the only time you don't have to suppress your powerlevel because guess what? They know all the dumb memes you do and have a lot of overlap in interests and other things you enjoy. You can ask someone why they're green and actually learn something about Startrek because they fucking love star trek so much they painted themselves green! SO WHEN I ASK THEM THEY ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO GUSH ABOUT THE SHIT THEY LOVE! I FUCKING LOVE NERD CONVENTION SHIT HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

first con ever. is there anything super bad i should be expecting there? gonna pull up as the horse cuck guy from needy streamer overload

There are plenty of attractive white girls who cosplay, but there are no attractive white boys. Some pretty boys would fit in with the bishounen aesthetic.

I haven't seen many of those, usually it's a boyfriend/husband overloaded with bags of her bullshit. (That used to be me lol.)
>>
Lightweight, easy to fold up and store, saves you carrying a bag that you have to put down constantly for photos in cosplay

Do you prefer to cosplay as more well-known or "underground" less known characters from more obscure media?
Historically all of my cosplays have been somewhat obscure game characters, at least in my region, very little people play Yakuza so the few people that recognized my Kiryu cosplay made me feel quite good

>>10963012
A mix of well known and obscure. Sometimes I go for well known characters and sometimes obscure characters. Really it depends on the mood and interest.
>>
>>10963012
Obviously obscure shit. No reason to get excited once you've seen the same costume twice per day. Only good thing about it is going to group meetups. Also obscure things actually let you open up conversation since everyone has talked about the big works to death already.
>>
>>10963012
Obscure because the stuff I like tends to be hipster shit or older material. But not on principle, I like some brand new and popular stuff such as err Girls' Last Tour and Blame (2017).

Im tired of going to cons and not meeting anyone so ive decided to try and cosplay again to generate socialization around my cosplay. Im open to suggestions for what i should dress up as, preferably id want to dress as a character from a western movie or cartoon but im willing to do an anime cosplay if need be as well.

Thank you so much #5349 for the card match! i appreciate that u added a gift even if it was just a card match, will definitely use the headband in the future. I think the dog design is so funny and it made me smile. The candy was tasty and a new thing to try, as well as the apple nail stickers- such a thoughtful touch that I can already imagine the fun designs I'll create with them! I hope your holiday season has been great. Thank you again.

I’m going to guess this is from my gift Santa, there was not a note to let me know- but Santa thank you so much! I love my gifts and wow.. a whole dress, I definitely was not expecting that. It’s so pretty with the roses and green gingham. The Moomins and Chief keychain- I have never seen him on a keychain! I put it on my keys immediately. The Moomins are on my computer desk so I see them everyday. Thank you so much Secret Santa, Happy Holidays - #4100.

"Awesome" is measured by the standard of ColossalCon instead of the inverse. Dinergoth isn't an insult, it's just a stated fact here
