How to make a Shamwow Guy costume

Vince Shlomi is the rather excited guy who shills for Shamwow, the miracle microfiber towel that can pick up any spill. A large portion of the products sales can be attributed to "The Shamwow Guy's" zany personality. Bring the fun and a Shamwow to your next costume gathering and be the hit of the party. You can entertain friends AND mop up any spills!

Things You'll Need

  • Blonde spikey wig
  • Scissors (OPTIONAL)
  • Hair gel
  • Headset
  • Dark blue polo shirt
  • Khaki pants
  • Shamwow or yellow chamois cloth (or even a towel)
  • Yellow fabric paint

Putting together your Shamwow Guy costume

Step 1: Pick up a blonde, spikey wig, or go for the LA Joe wig with highlighted men's hair. You may want to take some scissors and shorten it a bit.

Step 2: Add some hair gel to your wig to get a spiked effect, similar to the style sported by the Shamwow guy.

Step 3: Put on a headset -- the type worn by the Shamwow guy, Garth Brooks, Janet Jackson, and Madonna as part of your costume.

Step 4: Pick up some yellow fabric paint at a craft store. Use your fabric paint to write the "Shamwow!" logo on the left breast pocket of your blue polo shirt.

Step 5: When your fabric paint is dry, put on your polo shirt along with a pair of khaki pants and a belt.

Step 6: Grab a Shamwow! (or just a plain yellow handtowel) and get ready to party... and clean.

Bring a bottle of water and a piece of carpet around with you to demonstrate the Shamwow awesomeness (or not, in fact if it doesn't work, that'd be even funnier.)

And... turn it into a couples costume by having a female friend dress up as a prostitute.
