You want to disappear? If you want to surprise friends and family, or avoid someone for good, simple steps like changing your personality, clothing, and attitude can be effective in helping your disguise.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Changing Physical Traits
Step 1. Change your hair
A drastic haircut is the quickest way to look completely different. But if you want to disguise yourself, you should choose a hairstyle that will not attract attention, a blue mohawk or a pink wig may not be the best choice.
- Men can style their hair using products such as hairspray or gel to create more elaborate hairstyles than usual, or shave their hair completely. Also consider coloring, or using cheap talcum powder to create a gray line that will fool people. If you have facial hair, shave it in a different shape or remove it altogether. Otherwise, consider growing a beard or mustache.
- Women can consider original-looking wigs or hair extensions to change the basic shape of the hair. This way you can also quickly return to your original hairstyle, if you want to disguise yourself again. Keep them guessing by changing hairstyles frequently and without warning. Dye your hair a different color every week and make sure that you are never noticed. Try a combination of highlighting patterns and total coloring.
Step 2. Put on glasses and sunglasses
This method worked for Clark Kent. By adding handles in appearance, you will escape "glance." People will recognize you the closer they get, sure, but you'll be able to escape their first glance. By adding glasses or sunglasses, you will enhance your disguise.
If you have contact lenses, consider changing the color of your contact lenses, or looking for old grips that you no longer wear
Step 3. Make friends with makeup
For a dramatic effect, create moles, freckles, wrinkles, or other imperfections on your face. Make your skin lighter or darker to confuse people more. Spray a tan or a flashy fake tattoo.
If you're a boy, or if you don't usually wear makeup, wearing a little can change your appearance a lot. Adding an eye line and just changing your outfit can give you a completely different aura
Step 4. Change your size and posture
Try changing your height by wearing high heels, or bending over and carrying yourself in a different way than usual. Consider losing or gaining weight, if you have the time, or simply using a dress trick. Add extra layers to your outfit to make it look like you've gained a few pounds.
Method 2 of 3: Changing Your Clothes
Step 1. Change your dress style
If you usually look neat and stylish, consider dressing yourself up in a punk or gothic outfit. Wear old clothes you rarely wear, or check your parents' wardrobe for vintage items your acquaintances never see.
- Men may consider dressing older or younger than their actual age. If you usually dress like a 19-year-old, consider your dad's style and start taking examples from him. Put on a polo shirt and tuck it in khakis with your phone tucked in your belt pocket, you'll be 20 years old in no time.
- Women may consider clothing in a more masculine style, wearing trousers if they normally wear skirts as a way of changing their appearance in general. If people used to see you wearing good makeup and clothes, it would be a surprise if you suddenly put on a basketball jersey.
Step 2. Wear accessories
It will make your new look convincing. If you combine women's trousers with a cholo shirt, it will be a surprising disguise, but not necessarily convincing. It will just look weird. Think of yourself as a character changing actor that people will believe. Wear appropriate hats, jewelry, and gear that looks appropriate.
Step 3. Change your clothes that usually fit
Wearing clothes that are looser than what you normally wear is a great way to change your shape and look different. Buy items that are several sizes larger than your actual size. Wear layers of clothing to add a few extra pounds to your look, then take off layers at some point in the day to ensure that you look different in the morning and evening. No one will ever know if you keep changing.
Step 4. Bring spare clothes
A few years ago, an Asian man boarded a plane wearing a silicone mask that made him look like an old white man, and then he changed clothes and took off the mask halfway through, eluding everyone's attention. By providing ready-to-wear clothes (in a backpack or handbag) you can not only disguise but also expand your disguise for the day.
Bring emergency makeup and hair dye for a quick makeover. Shoe polish can be used in an emergency
Method 3 of 3: Changing Yourself
Step 1. Develop a new persona
Give your new identity a name and create a compelling story. This will help you "get into character" better, and make your appearance more natural. Develop a different sense of humor than you normally have, start listening to different music, and develop different behaviors. If you are usually liberal, imagine that you are conservative and adapt the style, attitude, and behavior of that character.
You might even consider using a speaking accent in your disguise. Change your accent periodically with different people to keep them guessing
Step 2. Play your age
Looking older or much younger is a very effective way of tricking people. Dyeing your hair gray when you are young and walking hunched over with a cane will make you unrecognizable to those who actually know who you are.
Getting pebbles in your shoes isn't very comfortable, but if you're determined to disguise yourself, it's a great way to make sure you walk differently. Put a brace on your knee to give you a natural limp walk
Step 3. Avoid people
The most important part of masquerading is not drawing people's attention to you. "Hide in plain sight" is the best way to disguise. Avoid eye contact with people you know, keep your head down and walk slowly and quietly. The impression that you appear busy, such as when you're headed to a certain place while working on something will ensure that you don't stand out.
Step 4. Dress in a different gender
If you want to look broke, consider looking ambiguous or as a convincing member of the opposite sex. Mutually change appearances so that your disguise is always varied.
