How to Wear Long Moving Cat Ears
Tall ears need a little planning. Here is how to wear your long moving cat ears so they stay put, move clearly and stay neat through a busy convention day.
Set Up in Four Steps
- Charge. Top up the headband over USB-C the night before.
- Set the speed. Switch on and choose a speed before you put them on. Slow reads soft in photos; faster suits video.
- Anchor the band. Settle your wig first, then the band. A bobby pin on each side keeps tall ears steady on a heavy or slippery wig.
- Tilt and play. Tall ears exaggerate every move, so small tilts go a long way. Try a few in the mirror.
Where They Stand Out
Photo Shoots
Long ears catch light at the tips. Shoot slightly from below to show their height, and leave room above the tips in the frame.
Conventions
Mind doorways and crowds. Practice turning in tight spaces so the ears do not get bumped.
Streams
Raise your camera a little so the tips stay in shot, and pause the motion between takes when the mic is close.
Styling Tips
- Pink or Blue ears with a pastel wig; Black or Brown with natural tones.
- Add a posable cat tail in a matching color. The tail is 15% off when you buy it with ears.
- Keep hoods and high necklines clear of the ears so they can move freely.
- Wearing them for a long event? Read how to fit moving cat ears securely.
Care and Storage
The faux-fur covers come off for brushing; use a soft brush and gentle strokes. Keep the headband dry and away from heat, and charge with a suitable USB-C charger. Store it flat in a box so the long tips do not bend.
