My Hairdress costume problem

Hello, everyone in the empire community. I am a player from Canada and I am flying out for E1. The problem for me Is My Hairdress. I was hoping to build and wear it, but it might be problem for the airlines because they don’t let people bring animal horns or antlers on the plane. Is there a way to a get a Hairdress at the event? or are there any places that you can recommend where i could buy one? Hopefully near south London as I will be staying in Epsom before the event. thanks everyone

Congratulations, I think this is a completely new issue on these forums :sweat_smile:

Having checked the relevant guidance and legislation for you on the UK governmental websites… I got nothing.

The general impression I got was that if they’re clean, not intended for sale or export on into Europe, and stuffed into a checked bag, then you can bring antlers along. I think you might get some clarification if you rang the airline or similar. You might want to declare it as theatrical costume or similar…?

Do NOT take the above as permission to do so, check for yourself. And tell us if you get a solid answer, it’s an interesting one.

You can certainly get a headress with horns/antlers at the event, or indeed likely in several costume shops in London. These may be made from resin, or plastic, or may even be real antlers. Prices vary.

You may even be able to borrow a set from someone in your Nation (or beyond it), as these sorts of things turn up quite a bit.

Mandala ususally has lineage props at the event availible for purchase, though it may be a bit of DIY to get it together fully. Oh and btw, they do take commissions, though it would be best to order now as orders can take any amount of time to complete

Having no hair has it’s benefits :sunglasses: :rofl:
