How to put it together
- 1
Put on the red and black wrestling bodysuit, ensuring a snug fit.
- 2
Lace up the tall black boots, tucking the bottom of the jumpsuit legs into them if necessary.
- 3
Put on the long black wig, shaking it out so the hair falls naturally around your shoulders.
- 4
Secure the Kane mask over your face, adjusting the straps so it sits comfortably over your eyes and nose.
- 5
Slip the single black glove onto your right hand.
- 6
Fasten the black wristband or cuff onto your left wrist to complete the asymmetrical look.
Makeup & hair
If any of your natural hair shows around the edges of the wig, tuck it in or spray it black. Apply dark grey or black eyeshadow around your eyes before putting on the mask to blend your eyes into the mask's eye cutouts.
