Q&A for How to Look Like Hermione Granger

Stand up for what is right, and stand up to bullies. Be adventurous and don’t be afraid to be yourself. Whenever you have a chance to be brave, be brave.

Of course! Hermione almost never wears her robes anyway.

If that's what you're going for, then it is perfect. If not, you can use hair products to style your hair how you want it.

Yes, a skirt and leggings is part of her outfit for school. You could always use it to make an outfit similar to Hermione's style for everyday wear.

You could ignore them, as being called a nerd might mean you share qualities with Hermione Granger, who was perceived that way by many.

You can wear a white blouse with the sleeves curled up and a Gryffindor tie. A grey pleated skirt with school shoes will be fine.

You can braid your hair before going to bed, and when you undo the braids the next day, your hair will have a curlier appearance.

You can separate your hair into sections and braid it, or put it in a bun to create waves. Make sure to style your hair while it's wet and leave it up overnight for the best results.

You can wear contact lenses if you have permission, or embrace being a glasses-wearing version of Hermione!

To talk like Hermione Granger, be confident and slightly bossy. Using a clipped British accent can also help.

Wild and curly down around your shoulders is good. You could also try a messy ponytail like in Deathly Hollows Part 1. Try braiding your hair before you sleep. When you take it out in the morning, it will be wavy. Tip your head over and apply a little hairspray to finish the look.

You could wear it to a cosplay event or to a Harry Potter-themed party (or to throw your own Harry Potter-themed party!). Halloween is a good time to wear any kind of costume.

Hermione Granger typically wears sneakers with her Muggle outfit and Oxford shoes with her uniform.

If your hair is already pretty bushy, then it would be best to just leave it. If you want to enhance the effect, try not blow drying it after a shower.

Yes. Hermione's hair was often called 'bushy'. Draco Malfoy is the main person who calls her bushy-headed. Draco once said "Keep that big, bushy, head down, Granger!"

Grey tights is the uniform color, but you can also wear black tights. Or, if it is hot out, just wear shorts underneath!

You can embrace a "muggle-dressed" Hermione look by wearing ordinary clothes and incorporating some of her personality traits, such as intelligence and bravery, into your own style.

Having brown skin and black braids is perfectly fine. What matters most is enjoying the process of embodying Hermione and having fun with it.

Unless she's wearing the Hogwarts robe, Hermione dresses quite muggle-like, wearing plain t-shirts, sweaters, jeans, and running shoes. You don't really need any special clothes to look like Hermione.

Try to mimic her British accent if possible, try reading a little more than usual, be a "know-it-all" just enough to be a little annoying, and try to be a little bossier than usual.

That's quite alright. There are many people who prefer to imagine Hermione as darker-skinned, or of a different race. Having exact features isn't as important as having a good time.

No, you can be a blonde-haired version of Hermione Granger.

She is in love with Ron Weasley. They had two children together, Rose and Hugo Granger-Weasley.

In Hermione's third year in care of magical creatures she does not wear a jumper or a robe, and she rolls up the sleeves of her buttoned up shirt (she also lets her time turner show which is a little weird considering it's supposed to be a secret). You could wear something like that.

Hermione Granger typically doesn't wear much makeup, so if you choose to use any, stick to very light colors and keep it minimal.

You don't have to wear a tie. Hermione Granger often doesn't wear one during the summer, on weekends, or when she's not in school.

You could make a robe out of something like a sheet or blanket, or you could forego it entirely. After all, Hermione only wears her robes when she's in class.

Find another bag, or carry around smaller books. If you can't carry books, it's okay.

I suggest putting your hair in plaits or a bun. That will make it nice and wavy!

The color of your hair is not as important as embodying Hermione's intelligence and confidence.
