How to Cosplay As Beyond Birthday

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Get a black wig that preferably goes down to your lower to mid neck and barely touches your neck.

   If you cannot find wig like this , trim one carefully to match it.
   
   It should look similar to that of a "L" wig but less messy.
   
   Also make sure the wig is comfortable and fits with out being excessively itchy.
2. 2

   Step 2: Get a baggy pair of blue jeans.

   Make sure they are worn and a pale shade of blue especially around the knees.
   
   Make sure you can move freely and that your bottom isn't hanging out. , In the book, he wears a clean white one, but it's not uncommon to wear a black one or a bloody white one.
   
   It's all up to you if you want people to know your BB then go with the black or bloody one.
   
   Chances are that if you wear a clean white long sleeve shirt, people will mistake you for L.
   
   Try wear a shirt 2 sizes bigger or more than your normal size, but don't let it be revealing. ,, Dark non-sparkly eyeshadow works too. ,, And always have an extra jar with you. , If you don't have pale skin, make-up is an alternative. ,, If you're not then baggy clothes will help. ,,, Make yourself seem as off-kilter and suspicious as possible. , That was Beyond Birthday's real alias and part of the reason he went insane, due to being called the 'back-up' to L.
