Dress code, hairstyle and make-up for a successful TV series man costume

The frantic search for original Halloween costumes has already started. Once we've brought you our Halloween costume ideas for women, it's time to focus on men and their favorite heroes. Normally, gentlemen take inspiration from strong warriors with big muscles who will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. The TV series "Vikings", "Game oh thrones" and "The Witcher" are examples of productions that are full of such characters. Let's zoom in on the details you need to pay attention to if you want to play one of their protagonists.
How to wear Floki's outfit from the TV series "Vikings"?

Become Floki - the brave warrior and eccentric boatbuilder, best friend of Ragnar Lothbrok from the "Vikings" TV show on the History Channel! Played by actor Gustaf Skarsgård, Floki and his appearance epitomize medieval style. In order to transform into this hero, you must first get a viking costume.

This mainly consists of the following elements: a dark green long-sleeved t-shirt, a sleeveless vest made of multicolored imitation leather for a worn look, a dark green sports men's harem pants, an elven brown cape, a long medieval brown belt and high leather boots. Complete your outfit with faux leather bracelets, a standard Viking ax, and classic black face paint to get her signature eyes.
Floki makeup
Indeed, all of the characters in the "Vikings" series have very particular personal styles based on what the real Vikings wore, including their tattoos with Norse symbols and in some cases black eye makeup, like the one wearing Floki.

“Vikings” makeup artist Tom McInerney shared that among the few things known about Vikings and their appearance, men and women wore kohl (an ancient powder made from a mixture of lead, sulfur and animal fat, even burnt wood or bitumen, used for make-up) around the eyes to highlight them.
McInerney went on to explain that as Floki represents pagan culture, the Vikings embraced and expressed a deep connection to the gods of their time, which gave them the chance to beautify the look with ritual makeup. According to other interpretations, Floki wears black eye makeup almost all the time because in this way the Scandinavians wanted to look scarier.
Floki hairstyle
Ragnar may be king, but Floki is the one who completely stole the show in the TV series. Her hairstyle is absolutely unique in the Viking world (as is her black eye makeup). Her short hair can be easily worn by men with receding hair lines.
Also, if you have a thicker or even longer mane, you might as well go for another vintage hairstyle - the long twists, the bun on the top of the head and the braided ponytail coordinate very well with the savagery of their owners.
The true viking can also wear a shaved head or pompadour haircut. In all cases, it is accompanied by a long beard, sometimes braided.
There you go, your TV series man costume is ready, everyone will recognize the character, that's for sure!
How to transform into Jon Snow from "Game of thrones"?

Jon Snow, a major character in the HBO series "Game of Thrones" played by Kit Harington, is the bastard son of Ned Stark and the nephew of Daenerys Targaryen who joins Night's Watch to escape his status. Adopting his King of the North outfit will definitely help you fight against narcissistic kings, treacherous soldiers, and mystical creatures.

In order to disguise yourself as Jon Snow, you will need a suitable costume for the time he lives. The latter notably includes Viking leather armor, an old-fashioned dark tunic, pirate shirt, velvet cape with hood, heavy textile jogging pants, medieval black ring belt and black boots. Complete the costume with an oversized faux fur collar, black leather gloves and a medieval crusader sword.
Jon Snow Makeup
A TV show men's costume requires the right makeup to be successful. Applying makeup like the King of the North is not currently a very difficult task. However, pay attention to details such as a pale complexion, dark eyebrows, healed scars, and short beard.
Like a true northerner, Jon's complexion is pale and he always wears his cape to protect himself from the cold

Jon Snow Hairstyle
Unless you've decided to use a wig, know that you need medium to thick density of your hair to mimic Jon's mane. The natural wavy or curly texture will enhance its specific look.
For a while in the series, Jon changed the loose curls to a little ponytail behind his head

In case you have a very short to medium cut, plan your hair growth for at least 6 months up to a year. Once you've got the right length, a good texturizer and diffuser will help you style your strands.
How to dress up as khal Drogo from "Game of thrones"?

Khal Drogo is one of the characters in HBO's hit "Game of Thrones" series. He is the Grand Khal of the Khalasar of the Dothraki. The Drogo clan is known for its fierce and talented warriors and nomadic personality. Khal Drogo marries Daenerys Targaryen, as a deal with his brother Viserys to help him conquer the Iron Throne.

The Halloween Drogo costume consists of a faux leather flared fisherman pants, a brown leather half armor vest which consists of several brown belts. The outfit is completed with a pair of captain's boots, leather armbands and wrist guards, and of course the iconic sickle-like Dothraki Arakh weapon.
Makeup khal Drogo
Khal Drogo's signature makeup includes a lot of black eyeliner around the eyes and war-symbolizing lines on the chest, done using black body paint. You can also imitate some scars on the face to make your look even more terrifying.
Hairdressing khal Drogo
In the “Game of Thrones” TV series, long hair is really seen as a symbol of strength. That is why, khal Drogo's wicks have never been cut.
Khal Drogo is a typical representative of a barbarian tribe with his long ponytail hairstyle

Obviously, it would be impossible for most men to emulate her remarkable hairstyle, so it would be a good idea to go for a black wig tied in a ponytail. To reproduce the hair on Drogo's face, it is also advisable to use stylized black mustache and beard accessories in an easy braid.
Men's TV series costume: Geralt de Riv, the wizard from "The Witcher"

Dress like Geralt from Netflix's "The Witcher" TV series. The costume of the famous wizard with white hair consists of a few main elements - black clothes, a wig, a necklace, a sword and let's not forget the colored contact lenses and black engineer's boots.

The set of this outfit also includes a shirt, padded chest armor with shoulder pads, decorated with geometric silver studs, gloves, belt - all in charcoal gray or dark brown color if you prefer. Gloves and arm guards fully cover the hands up to the elbows and are made from a sturdy material with protective qualities.
The belt sits on top of the corset and is fastened with a solid silver buckle. The hunter pants are made from black leather.
Geralt de Riv makeup
In order to wear makeup like the wizard Geralt, the most essential thing is to use a lighter foundation. The other important details are the brown eyeshadow and the black eyeliner, as well as the visible veins which are to be drawn with a gray eye pencil.
Hairstyle Geralt de Riv
Normally long white wig is your easiest choice. Unless you have light blonde hair with a medium length. Geralt's hairstyle indeed represents the mullet cut with a ponytail, that is, half up, half down. You still have to style the strands using a brush, a rubber band and a bit of optional hairspray.

To start, brush your hairs. Then, using the comb, part the top of the hair from the bottom and gather the ponytail at the back of your head. Secure with a rubber band, spray on hairspray to hold in place and your hairstyle is ready.
Since the Halloween party is fast approaching, Deavita.fr advises you to buy the clothes, accessories and cosmetics that you need to make your favorite TV series man costume in specialized stores. Also, you might as well try making some items of your favorite character's outfit yourself, but bear in mind that it will take more time and effort.
