Ninja Costume

October 10, 2009

So you want to be a Ninja (or “kunoichi” if you are a lady) this Halloween? Dressing up like a ninja is probably one of the coolest yet easiest costume ideas around. Sometimes dressing up isn’t as fun when you don’t play the part so here you will find some simple steps on how to be a ninja for a night and a couple must-have items for you.

Step 1. Dress like a ninja. They key here is dark – my choice would be black. Black pants, black shirt (turtleneck if you can tolerate one), and a ninja mask (you can make this easily out of a long piece of fabric or a tshirt). For simple steps on how to make a ninja mask from a tee shirt, please see below:
How to make a ninja mask out of a t-shirt: Put the shirt over your head, stopping with the neck opening right around your nose. While leaving the front of the neck opening around your face, pull the back of the opening up over your head and hang right above your eyes. Then take the loose parts of the shirt and place behind your head while tying the arms together in back. Tuck any excess fabric in the shirt you will be wearing.

Step 2: Think, react, and move like a ninja: The way of the ninja is not a violent or angry. The ninja does not manipulate by violent force, but instead by words and actions. You need to think before you react and never react in anger. You must be able to move stealthily and escape effectively. Have self control.

Step 3: Practice ninjutsu: Show off to your friends (an foes) with your cool ninja skills.

Step 4: Get ninja weapons and swords! Some ninja essentials are below (wooden swords are recommended for Halloween, but not required):
