Hello fellow hobo clowns! I was wondering if you guys could give me some advice. The other day I was a clown (hobo) at my church's picnic, and I had a couple problems with my disguise.

My main problem was my wig which is a long one... it kind of covered my forehead and no one could see my extra thick eyebrows, and on top of that, it kept getting in my mouth... at the end of the day I could feel wig-hair in my throat and it gave me a stomach ache; so should I replace it with a shorter one, or not wear a wig at all? I kind of have short hair, and I wear a large-brimmed hat, so if I didn't use a wig no one would see any hair at all.

Another big problem was my makeup; I used Mehron water-activated (cake?) stuff, which took forever to apply. If any hobo clowns could give me some advice on what kind of makeup to use that would be great; should I get grease paint or cake paint or something, and what colors should I use, just black, white, and red?

If anyone can think of anymore hobo-type accessories, please share with me ^.^ which reminds me; I wanted to get some fingerless gloves, but I couldn't find and reasonable prices anywhere, so if anyone knows of a place where I can get some thin, cheap, fingerless gloves, that would help, unless I shouldn't, I'm still new to this so please critique me as you see fit ^.^

The only accessories type things I have right now, are a hat, squirt bow-tie, and my shoes (with squeakers in them).

Thanks in advance,
-Miles
