Each and every famous figure, be it imaginary or real has something that differentiates them from other similar individuals or from the rest of the world. Spiderman, Batman and Superman have their superhero costumes, Harry Potter had those funny round-shaped glasses, Lady Gaga has all kinds of crazy ideas, while Marilyn Monroe has the white dress. You could not see a perfect replica of these individuals without these signature items.

This works the same for Hulk Hogan. Just imagine someone trying to be Hulk Hogan without having the “horseshoe” white moustache and the well known bandana! I don’t think anyone will recognize or at least guess the character who stood at the basis of such a disguise. Thus, if you are planning in playing the though guy this year with a Hulk Hogan costume, you should start looking for the two items you will need the most: the moustache and the bandana.

As regarding to the first accessory, the moustache, you can either let it grow (if you are a man and do not mind changing your appearance for a few weeks) or you can use a fake moustache bought from the online costume shops. It doesn’t get easier than that!

With the bandana, things may get a little bit more complicated, as there are some things you need to know before actually purchasing Hulk’s signature bandana. The first thing you must know is that along time, the color of Hulk’s bandanas has had slight modifications. At the beginning of his career and along his first ten years of pro wrestler, Hulk Hogan chose a yellow bandana to complete his usually yellow costumes. Thus, if you plan in adopting a ‘80s style Hulk Hogan costume, you should definitely go for a yellow bandana.

“Hollywood” Hulk preferred black bandanas, so for an authentic ‘90s Hulk Hogan look you should wear a black bandana too (of course, matching your black sleeveless shirt). The most recent colors used by Hulk Hogan in his wrestling career were yellow and red, with a red bandana and red and yellow feather boas.

Another thing you must take into consideration is that the bandanas were actually a perfect blend with the costume, so that it is not recommended to mix the styles, although a yellow bandana with a red and yellow costume may look quite good. Remember that an ardent fan pays lots of attention to details.

Now you know who to accessorize your Hulk Hogan costume so that it will look as accurate as possible. You only have to choose the style which fits you best!
