/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Hi friends :O I'm making a monster musume cosplay and bringing my boyfriend along for anti-perv protection as Kimihito. It's a fairly straightforward plain clothes cosplay so I'm worried people won't recognize him without a wig, but he really hates the idea of wearing one. He has medium-length sort of fluffy black hair (asian hair i guess) that styles moderately well, does he really need a wig or could I style his hair with gel or fiber?

I also thought about somehow doing face makeup for the white eye-circles since that's how the character's eyes usually are, to make him more recognizable, but idk how I would go about doing that. I saw a Kimihito cosplay where the guy put white paper ovals over his eyes and it was ita as fuck, so I am very wary of trying to do that.

I know he's really just there for backup support but because I'm doing monmusu I'd really rather not have any solo pictures taken of me at this con, so he needs to look good! Thank you for any advice.
