So my brother and some friends are going to be going to Dragon*Con this year and we want to do a League of Legends cosplay group. I've been pondering which character would work best for me because my hair is now shoulder-blade length (I'm a guy but this would be closing in on BSL if i wore one HAHA) so cutting/shaving is COMPLETELY out of the question.
The easiest would be:

because while mine is longer than his in the picture, it wouldn't make much of a difference.
But that's just too easy of a cosplay haha :D pants and some paint on the shoulders? cmon :p
So what I really had my eye on was this one:

Obviously though, his hair is way too long for me so I started considering a wig/extensions. However i have really thick hair and I don't think I could just cover it with a wig. Is there a way to do this or no? I don't wanna risk breaking with with loads of gel.
If a wig won't work, i'm fine working with expensions. There's a lot of guides out there so I don't think i'll be short on information but if anyone has any tips/suggestions or done this sorta thing before I'd love to hear.
ALSO.... I'm always interested in considering new cosplays as it's a growing hobby for me. However as my hair gets longer and longer and I don't want to cut it, my options get more specific/restricted. Do you have a have any suggestions of a book/movie/game/comic male character that has long hair (past shoulders)? I'd really like to know! :eek: Cause you know, one could write a book with the number of fiction heroines out there who have impossibly long perfect hair haha but what about the men, the dudes, the guys?
Hair is such a sexist thing :p
