Wig Samurai Japanese warrior

The Samurai Japanese Warrior wig is a samurai hairstyle for men: straight black hair down to the middle of the back, with a topknot in a red band on top. You wear it over a samurai costume, after which the long locks fall loose along your face and over your shoulders. This way, you will immediately be recognizable as a Japanese warrior during carnival or at a theme party.

Why does a topknot belong with a Japanese warrior?

A tied-up topknot on top of the head is the most well-known identifying feature of the samurai, the warrior class of ancient Japan. In films and comics about Japanese warriors, you always see this hairstyle, often together with a sword at the hip. Because this wig combines the topknot with long, loose-hanging hair, the look resembles a wandering warrior from an action movie more than a strictly groomed samurai of the court.

Completing the recognizable samurai look

The character becomes recognizable with clothing in a Japanese style, such as a dark wrap jacket, a wide belt around your waist and a vest with padded shoulders. Tuck a toy sword into that belt and the warrior's silhouette is complete. Let the fringe hang freely above your eyebrows, so that the point on your forehead remains visible. Some dark face paint around the eyes and a stern look complete the warrior's face.
