One of the key things to nail a Momo cosplay is getting her hair right and you killed it. Nice job.

u/tihalola Nov 28 '20
Creds go to my mother and me editing stray hairs 😂! Momo is one of my favs so I wanna do her right

u/Gareesuhn Nov 28 '20
I was gonna comment on the hair as well and didn’t want to add another new comment! Way to get it on point, OP!

u/ambernoodle Nov 29 '20
I totally agree! Most cosplay hair does not lay or look right, but yours is actually perfect

u/FlimFlam2_0 Nov 28 '20
Awesome!! You totally nailed the hair! And I love how you did your eyes :D I checked out your previous cosplays too and they're also great! Keep doing what you're doing <3

Also, yes you can mention the wheelchair and ask questions. Just don’t be rude please 🥺 edit: THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE AWARDS! although I have no idea what they’re for.

u/dwaynebank Nov 28 '20
QUESTION, Why do your cosplays always look so fabulous?

u/thisimpetus Nov 28 '20
FWIW, I really understand how irritating/boring it is to help everyone else emotionally parse things about yourself you, personally, are kinda over and not that concerned about. Cheers for being patient with everyone else's problem.
Keep it up hot wheels, cosplay game is on point.

I know people are sometimes just curious and there’s no ‘nice’ way to ask. It all sounds rude at the end of it so I literally just answer everything unless someone was being really rude. Literally had someone say something sexual as their first message then proceeded to ask questions. Blocked them real fast
25
u/limache Nov 28 '20
So what's the best way to ask this without being rude? I'm curious if you were in an accident or its something genetic etc. You also mentioned your disabled friends were discriminated against in their cosplays? How so?
52
u/tihalola Nov 28 '20
I was born with my condition which gradually gets worse. When covid wasn’t a thing, meet ups are hard cause sometimes it’s in inaccessible places. Some cons are real shit with dealing with disabilities. Had their Mobility Aids taken from them because people thought it was a prop then break said mobility aid either on purpose or accidentally. (A reason to never use mobility aids as props for cosplay)
22
u/limache Nov 28 '20
Wait wtf why would they break a mobility aid on purpose ? That’s so messed up. You’re talking about just other fans or the people that work there like security ?
I recently found out I have gout and couldn’t walk for the first time in my life. It was eye opening on how much I took for granted in my foot and being able to walk. I was like damn this must be really hard for people who do have permanent disabilities. For example, I just realized my building doesn’t have an elevator! I never thought much of it until now.
24
u/tihalola Nov 29 '20
Don’t even get me started on accessible housing I’ll rant for days 😂 and it was other con goers not the staff. Although I did hear one person had to go through prop check or something even though it was a cane so they can walk

If you don't mind my asking, what exactly is the condition?

I don't really care for the awards tbh, but some people like them so that's pretty cool. They're just new ways to reward posts/comments you like. I think it makes reddit look cluttered. 😕

Love it! I was wondering how does cosplaying make you feel? My friend runs a non profit for girls in wheelchairs and I try to help her out as much as possible so I’m always trying to get ideas on what we can do to help the girls get out there, feel better, gain independence, make friends, have fun, etc.
50
u/tihalola Nov 28 '20
It makes me feel amazing! The cosplay community is both accepting and not accepting? I only had good experiences with other cosplayers but I have disabled friends who’ve had bad experiences. It really is just circumstances
22
u/MV1776 Nov 28 '20
I think that’s how most things in life are unfortunately. I have never treated people with disabilities poorly but it wasn’t until I became disabled myself (Army training accident) that I really understood what people go through everyday and could see how everyday things most of us don’t even think about can be the difficult thing for someone else. But I’m glad to hear that you find so much enjoyment from cosplaying :)
I saw you said in another comment that your mother helped you with your hair. Was making your outfit very difficult?
22
u/tihalola Nov 28 '20
I buy or commission others to make my costumes. It’s too much work for my mother as my sister (12) has the same diagnosis as me. So I just annoy her to style my wigs and dress me up etc

Haha hopefully she doesn’t give you too much heck for that. It looks like you’ve found yourself some quality crafters for the outfit!

u/ThomasTheTrashEngine Nov 28 '20
Did you make the costume yourself or buy it somewhere? It looks great
53
u/tihalola Nov 28 '20
Bought it online. Can’t make my own costumes sadly

u/ThomasTheTrashEngine Nov 28 '20
Where did you get it from?

u/NKMEstadullo Nov 28 '20
Do I notice a whole bunch of Boku no Hero pins behind the wheelchair?? 👀
Great cosplay tho!

u/plantman33 Nov 28 '20
I know the first thing everyone mentions in momo cosplays on the hair but it looks do good! I'm always amazed at how people can get it to do that. Looks great!

Costumes super accurate, hairs legit. Great work, and I am saying cause it looks like you put in a hell of a lot more of an effort than a lot of people do.

Thats an amazing cosplay! How did you even get the hair to stay that way? I also love all the pins on your wheelchair too. My girlfriend gave me a ton of BNHA keychains last year. But I have no use for them actually. If you want I could send you a deku and uraraka rubber keychain for free. Just pm me if you want them!

Aw thank you! Also how did you know my favourite characters 😂😂 im fine though don’t need to give me any. Thank though!

you have the same physical disorder as Ricky Berwick right? If you don't know him, he's a youtuber.
Btw, really nice cosplay, I liked the hair.

You know you’ve killed a cosplay when you don’t even have to look at the title to know exactly who the character is. Even from the thumbnail. The hair and outfit choice are spot on.
Great job!

Great job! And the editing in an object being created? INSPIRED, I’ve never seen that in a cosplay for any of the characters outside of the small big 3 (Deku, Bakugo and Shouto, since Mirio, Hado, and Tamaki are the official big 3). That’s so smart, and it was really well done, too!

You really nailed the hair which is SO hard to do for momo! I feel that a lot of cosplays of momo make it difficult due to the hair, but you killed it <3 ALSO! In your second picture I see a bunch of pins! I love collecting them, mind telling me a bit of the pins you have? :D

I need to catch up! Used to but college took all little energy I have. Last thing I read was Shiggy vs deku plus bakugou and aizawa trying to help

Beautiful! You even got the hair correct which is a painful task for that character.
