Is it possible to cosplay as Haku from Naruto with brown hair?

Question

I am planning on cosplaying as Haku from Naruto at an anime convention in my area next year. But there is one problem: I have brown hair, and he has black. Is there any possible way I can pull off cosplaying Haku without making extreme Naruto-fans complain AND not having to dye my hair or buy a wig? I mean, I don't mind dyeing my hair or buying a wig, I just wanna know.

Answer 1

I wouldn't worry about it, I went as Deidara and I have brown hair, and he has blonde hair. People still knew who I was. If you have the costume, they'll probably get it.

Answer 2

I wouldn't worry about it, I've seen a lot of Haku cosplayers with brown hair and they work just fine. As long as the costume is fairly accurate the die-hard fans should leave you alone ;-)

Answer 3

her hair is pretty uch black dw about it

Answer 4

haku's hair is black, but i would just go to the convention with brown hair. dont put any of the halloween hairspray in it because then your hair will look darker. i learned the hard way. i went to an anime convention as sasuke, and put the black halloween spray in my hair... and, now my hair looks darker

Answer 5

I don't think it'll be that big a deal, as long as you've got a good costume and all. If you're really worried about it though, try using some temporary hair dye or a wig if you want.

Answer 6

yeah its very possible people usually judge it more on the costume not the hair or you could get that spray that dyes it for like half a day and when wet it comes out

Answer 7

Depends on the tone of your brown hair. If it is too light, then maybe dyeing it would be a good idea. If it is not too light, then I don't think it will have any problems.

Haku might be a difficult character to do. Since he appeared very early on, unless you get the whole costume and act the same, many people might not know who it is.

A tip for you, have Haku's anbu mask on your waist and some of his large needles in your hands. People will know straight away who it is.

Answer 8

buy a wig

Answer 9

Hmm, if it's too, too light i would either go as someone else or dye it or get a wig. but if it's dark brown all the naruto nitpickers can kiss your ***. BTW, which convention are you going too? I'm going to a convention this Nov. as Haku too. =) (Nekocon)
