Put on the brown dress pants and tuck in the white short-sleeve dress shirt.
- 2
Tie the red and grey zig-zag necktie, keeping it slightly loose at the collar for a stressed office-worker look.
- 3
Apply the red face paint evenly over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area, or slip on your red headpiece.
- 4
Style your hair straight up using strong-hold gel and temporary red hair color spray, or put on the DIY flame headband.
- 5
Adopt a scowling, folded-arms pose to complete the angry persona.
Makeup & hair
