There are many reasons to impersonate a man or a woman. It's perfectly normal to find out what it's like to be of the opposite sex or to feel gender fluctuations. If you want to appear as the opposite sex in front of people, it is very important to change your appearance. However, there is no surefire way to appear as a man or a woman so you really don't have to worry about finding the right method. After changing your appearance, you just need to act to complete the look.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Look like a Man
Step 1. Wear tight jeans or loose pants complete with a men's shirt
You can choose a t-shirt, a collared shirt, or a button-up shirt, depending on the style you want. If the weather is cold, wear a jacket for an extra layer of camouflage.
- Complete the look with accessories like hats and glasses to make it harder for people to take off your disguise.
- If you usually carry a handbag, replace it with a backpack or men's purse.
Step 2. Wear a sports bra to hide your breasts
Sports bras are safe to wear to hide the breasts without damaging the tissues. However, your chest will still stand out, especially if your breasts are quite large. If this is the case, you may need to wear loose-fitting clothing or a jacket to hide your breasts.
- Don't feel pressured to wear anything that makes you uncomfortable.
- Some men have large breasts so you don't have to worry if your breasts are still protruding.
Step 3. Choose a masculine short hairstyle or long hairstyle
Short hair is usually considered a male trait so its use can make your disguise more convincing. You can also choose a men's long haircut. As another option, you can cover your head with a hat, if you want.
- If you don't want to cut your hair, but want a short hairstyle, you can tie your hair back and wear a hat. Simply twist the hair to the side, then roll it up and make a short ponytail. After that, bind the pigtails into a tight bun. Wear a hat to cover the bun.
- As another option, wear a short wig to change the hairstyle.
Step 4. Put on makeup to look like a man if you want to improve the quality of your disguise
Apply a foundation that matches your natural skin tone. After that, use an eyebrow pencil to change the shape of the original eyebrows to make them appear bigger. Then, dip a porous make-up sponge (stipple sponge) in black and brown face paint, then rub it over your jaw and upper lip to create a fake beard and mustache. Finally, apply foundation with a shade darker than your skin tone around the eyes to make the eyes appear sharper.
- Use an eyebrow pencil that is the same color as your eyebrows.
- If you have light hair and don't want to wear a wig, you can use yellow and brown face paint to create a beard and mustache. You'll need to use at least two colors to create your beard and mustache, as these hairs usually have more than one color.
- If you're too young to have a beard and mustache, skip this step and don't wear makeup.
Step 5. Trim your nails and don't paint them, if you like
While some men enjoy wearing nail polish, they generally leave their nails bare. In other words, your disguise will look more convincing if you don't paint your nails.
The norms in a gender are constantly changing so that more and more men are fond of nail polish. There's no need to remove nail polish on your fingers if the look matches your disguise
Step 6. Wear cologne so you smell like a man
Even if this step is optional, wearing men's colognes will make people associate your scent with men. Choose a scent you like and spritz a small amount of cologne on your neck or wrist.
Instead of buying a bottle of cologne for this purpose, try to borrow someone else's. Alternatively, you can request samples from a store like Sephora
Method 2 of 3: Look like a Woman
Step 1. Shave off body or facial hair that doesn't fit the stereotype of a woman's look
This usually includes the hair on your face and legs. In addition, you should shave your armpits if you want to wear sleeveless clothes. However, it is entirely your decision because now there are many women who do not shave their body hair.
Since you are biologically a man, shaving can make you look more convincing. However, everything is your own decision
Step 2. Choose unisex clothes if you want to look simple
Jeans combined with a top or a t-shirt are common clothes for women. Similarly, leggings and baggy t-shirts can make you look cute like many women. With the right accessories, you can create a simple unisex look that looks very feminine.
- For example, you can combine a long t-shirt with leggings. After that, wear a long necklace around your neck, attach a bracelet, and bring a handbag.
- Alternatively, wear tight jeans paired with a loose top, necklace, and a large bracelet.
Step 3. Choose a dress or short skirt for a neater look
In addition, wearing a dress or skirt will make your disguise appear more convincing because men don't usually wear dresses. Choose a dress that fits your body shape, then pair it with tights to make your legs look more feminine.
- If you're afraid of revealing your disguise, wear a long dress that covers most of your leg area. For example, you can wear a maxi dress that is so long that it touches the floor.
- You can cover broad shoulders with long sleeves, a cardigan, or a light jacket.
Step 4. Consider wearing a bra to give your body a curvy look
Since women have different body shapes and sizes, you don't need to wear a bra. However, this is an option if you want to appear to have breasts. Choose the bust of the size you like, then insert a tissue or pad.
- If you often disguise yourself, you can buy fake breasts so you don't have to fill in your bra. The fake breasts are made of silicone. This item has the same appearance and texture as the real breast.
- Try on several bras until you find the one that fits best.
Step 5. Change your hairstyle or wear a wig for a feminine hairstyle
You don't have to grow your hair out to look like a woman, but it will make your disguise more convincing. Depending on your current hairstyle, you may be able to use a product such as a gel for a feminine look. If not, wear a wig to get the style you want.
You can also wear hair accessories, such as headbands, headbands, or hats to make them look more like women
Step 6. Use light makeup to make the face look like a woman
Apply foundation to help disguise the dark and rough areas around the eyes. After that, apply blush to add color to your cheeks and lipstick to make your lips stand out more. Finally, use light eye shadow, eye pencil, and mascara to make the eyes more charming.
- Don't wear too much make-up so you don't look bad. We recommend that you wear light makeup so that your appearance is more natural.
- If the skin in the area where your facial hair is growing is darker, use a lighter or lighter shade of foundation or foundation than your regular foundation in the area to even it out.
- Watching makeup tutorials online can help you get the look you want.
Step 7. Do a manicure to make the nails look more convincing
To look like a woman, you may need to paint your nails or apply fake nails, depending on the look you want to achieve. However, do not think that this is mandatory.
The easiest option is to cut your nails short and keep them clean. Remember, not all women like nail polish and there are men who like to paint their nails
Step 8. Put on perfume for a feminine scent
This step is optional because there are many women who do not wear perfume. However, spraying a little sweet scented perfume can make people assume that you are a woman. Choose a scent that you like, then spray it on your neck or wrist.
Try to borrow perfume so you don't have to buy it. Alternatively, you can request samples from a makeup outlet or a store like Sephora
Method 3 of 3: Acting as the Opposite Sex
Step 1. Use a new name in disguise, if desired
You can use your own name if you want. However, you may want to choose another name that you like, such as the name of your favorite actor. Alternatively, you can use a unisex name.
For example, names like “Ariel,” “Kenzi,” “Vicky”, or even “Qadri” are perfect for all genders
Step 2. Change the pitch of the voice to sound higher or lower
Women usually have a higher pitched voice than men, but this is not always true. For example, Scarlett Johansson is known to have a deep voice. Play with your voice to find out the right tone of voice when disguised.
- It's a good idea to practice speaking with a trusted person who can give you an opinion on the voice.
- To help you change your voice, look for videos online that offer tips on how to talk like a man or a woman, depending on your disguise.
Step 3. Swing your hips and rotate your shoulders to walk like a woman
Additionally, shorten your stride and try to keep your knees close to each other while keeping your elbows close to your body. Women tend to shrink and take up less space. Keep this in mind as you move.
- Walk slowly as you get used to walking like a woman.
- If you wear heels, be careful not to fall or slip. Take some time to get used to it.
Step 4. Extend your stride and walk with your legs spread apart to look like a man
Squat slightly to make the position of your legs spread out more naturally. In addition, lean your shoulders slightly forward. To avoid using your hands too much, put your hands in your pocket or bring something you can play with, such as a cell phone.
- Men don't use their hands when they talk. In addition, they usually hold something.
- It can also help make your movements appear stiffer.
Step 5. Sit with your legs crossed or your knees together if you are masquerading as a woman
General rules dictate that women should behave gently so that they usually sit with their legs crossed or crossed. Adopting this style while sitting will make you look like a real woman.
This is very important, especially if you decide to wear a dress. If you don't close your legs, people can see your panties
Step 6. Spread your legs apart when you're sitting down if you're masquerading as a man
Men usually feel more comfortable when they spread their legs and arms when sitting. This happens because of their body shape. Some people refer to this tendency as "manspreading". If you want to masquerade as a man, sit with your knees stretched and your arms outstretched for more reassurance.
Don't be afraid to take up too much space when "manspreading."
Step 7. Speak like the man or woman you want to emulate
Remember, there's no surefire way to impersonate a man or a woman so you'll have to make your own decisions. Think about the type of man or woman you want to emulate, then make a choice based on the image of them in your mind.
For example, both men and women can enjoy sports
Tips
- If you intend to use the toilet while undercover, have respect for others. Use an enclosed bathroom to maintain your privacy.
- If you don't have a piercing, but want to wear earrings as part of your disguise, find clip-on earrings that suit your style.
- If someone is suspicious, laugh and reassure him that you are a real woman/man.
