How to look like a neko! ...Wait, what? Yup! For starters, a "neko" is a "cat", but in Japanese. Looking like a "neko" is sometimes desired in the anime/manga otaku community. This article will show you how to achieve that neko look! Now, of course you can't actually be a cat. This is just for a cute style of dress and behavior.

Steps

  1. First off, decide what kind of neko look you are going for. Just cat ears and a tail?Makeup? When you've decided, we can begin! It is recommended that you wear cat ears and tail with light makeup instead. Base this decision on your area. If you live in a major cosplay area, you can wear funky cat ears and a tail and face paint. If you don't, just wear simple cat ears on a headband and cat's eye makeup.
  2. For a simple neko look, find some cat ears, and optionally a tail. You can also give this look some more 'OOMPH!' with "cat's eye" makeup (preferably for girls), and some nice long nails. For guys, nicely groomed, slightly long nails will do! To make your own ears, sew two black, brown, or white triangles to a smaller pink triangle. You can add sequins, glitter, or gems to add some extra pizzazz. Wear tight clothes in the colors of cats: black, white, beige, calico, orange, and grey. You can also wear pink, red, and green. Pink is the color of their paws, red is the color of blood, and green is the color of their eyes. A spring outfit would include short shorts, a beige shirt, black cardigan, and brown shoes with black cat ears and black nail polish. A sample summer outfit would be short shorts, a white tank top, beige cardigan with sleeves rolled up, white shoes, and black cat ears with pale pink nail polish. A sample autumn outfit would be super skinny jeans, an orange shirt, black shoes, and black cat ears with brown nail polish. A sample winter outfit would be super skinny jeans, brown cowboy boots, brown shirt, a white jacket, and black cat ears with a French manicure. You can vary the different shirts with pink, black, white, red, orange, brown, and grey. Try to get at least one shirt in each of these colors. Get one pair of dark wash and one pair of black wash skinny jeans, one pair of light wash and one pair of dark wash short shorts and a few of either white, black, brown, khaki, and/or grey pants. Accessorize with Hello Kitty jewelry.
  3. Makeup: you can find face paint almost anywhere, (cosplay shops and dollar stores) so it's really up to you. If you have sensitive skin, I recommend staying away from this makeup, unless it's written on the package that it's mild and/or hypoallergenic. For everyday makeup, do a subtle smokey eye (gold on lid, brown on crease, white under brow), cat eyeliner (halfway across top lid with flick at end and a quarter along the bottom), and black mascara. Wear foundation if you have bad skin and light blush and nude lip gloss. For face paint, paint whiskers, a nose, and any facial patterns.
  4. Take excellent care of your body. When you wake up, stretch and do yoga. Then, go for a 15 minute jog. When you come back, drink lots of water and eat a healthy breakfast. Get ready by taking a shower. Wash your hair every other day and condition daily. Use a nice soap on your body. Then, care for your facial skin by steaming your face, washing your face, applying toner, rubbing with an ice cube, and moisturizing your face. Apply lotion to your entire body. Scrub your feet with a pumice stone. Moisturize your feet. Brush, floss, and use a mouthwash on your teeth. Brush and style your hair. Apply your makeup. Do anything else needed. Repeat a similar process at night. Wipe off your makeup, steam, wash face, tone, ice, and moisturize your face. Apply lotion, pumice, feet, mouth, brush hair and put it in a ponytail, apply lip balm, and stretch.
  5. Now, it's also an attitude. It's expected that you'd act fairly cutesy, and tastefully add in a few "nyan's" every once in a while. Release your hunting instincts every once in a while by killing a bug that is pestering everybody without fear, chasing small animals, and being playful. Also be extremely smart. Get Straight A's and be a Teacher's Pet (Get it? Cats are pets so you should be your teachers), get in the top 5% or higher and get a near perfect score on standardized tests. Show your playful side by flirting, giggling, cuddling, jumping around, messing around, etc. Also show your mysterious side and creative side. People will love you. Express emotions through body language and tone of voice.
  6. Participate in some extracurricular activities. Take a foreign language like Mandarin, Latin, Russian, or any fairly difficult language. Participate in a few sports. Take a martial arts/fighting class for a few years, but you don't have to stick to it. Take a dance class for one or two years, but this isn't something you have to be committed to. Take one of these: hunting, fencing, archery. Stick to one of these. Also be on your school's track team. Stick to this too. Cats run really fast. You can optionally take another school sport, gymnastics, debate, Student Council (it is best if you are president, cats think they are gods and goddesses), etc.

Tips

  • For "fur" colors, have them match your hair. It will look more real.
  • Try not to overdo the cute cat feel. But if others are unjust fully annoyed, ignore them. Don't let them ruin your fun!

Warnings

  • You'll probably have fun! Enjoy your neko-time!
  • People might think you're weird.
  • You may annoy a lot of people.
