How to Boost Your Height for Cosplay

Recently, my friend told me she is planning on doing an Assassin'creed cosplay, most likely Altair. Anyways, all the characters are pretty tall, yet she is only 5'3/5'4. And since the game  is in a time era before high platform shoes, she can't use those. So she worried how to boost her height a few inches.

Actually, you can try insoles, also called shoe lifts, to add 1-2 inches. Any more than that may be uncomfortable, but you can be the judge of that.

Otherwise, Make a sling that fits around the bottom of your chin. Tie it around something high and strong and hang yourself. Of course, you are not really hanging yourself, you still will have your feet lightly on the ground, but it will s t r e t c h you out. Hey, Barney Fife did it and it worked, so you know it has to be true.

Tips On How to Braid Her Hair on Your Wig

Many copslayers worry and don't know how to braid hair on wig. Actually, it is easy.

I wouldn't worry about braiding the hair, I'd just wrap/braid white tape (bandaid tape/white cloth) over the two long strands of hair and tie the end of the hair which was left unwrapped around the ring.

I've actually never "tied" hair around something before so i dont know if that really works but perhaps a smarter ideal would be to get some clear hair ties and use that to hold the hair together after you've looped the ring through it.

What Characters You Want to Cosplay As in Bleach and Naruto Manga

Firstly, I think you ou have to consider the character that suits your physical attributes. It doesn't matter if it is a boy or a girl, because when you are at cosplay, you are portraying the character so if your good at it, you can easily be the anime you want people to recognize. There are certain features that you can easily fake such as hair color, eye color.. but you can't fake the height, body structure.. so to make the portrayal more realistic you to consider these.

Orihime Inoue is a good choice, just make sure to get a wig or temporary hair color that matches her hair if you are not of the same hair color and look for a school uniform costume which is fairly easy to find or even make from your own wardrobe.

The Soul Reaper with his long black straight hair in a ponytail, and simple kimono with a toy samurai.

If you are into mysterious looking characters, then the half-covered or make that 3/4 face of Kakashi Hatake would be a nice touch. You can have your long hair kept and just show the ends, make them stick out with a super hold gel. And of course the color.

Sakura Haruno with her pink short hair, is also a cute choice. And her clothes are not very fancy... and you can easily cut and put together your costume.
