Are you eager to start customizing your avatar and designing new outfits and cool looks on Roblox? Roblox’s Avatar Editor lets you customize outfits with hats, shirts, accessories, and other gear from the main menu anytime. You can also change your character’s appearance, including their body shape and hairstyle, and buy new clothes through Robux’s Marketplace. Read on to learn all about customizing and changing your character on Roblox, from using the Avatar Editor to purchasing items (and hunting down freebies!)
Customizing Your Roblox Avatar: Overview
Select Avatar from the navigation menu on the Roblox home screen to pull up the character customization screen (called the Avatar Editor). Then, just click on the icon of any clothing item, physical feature, hairstyle, skin color, or accessory to equip it and customize your character.
Steps
-
Log into your Roblox account. Navigate to Roblox.com and log in with your email and password.
- Once logged in, you’ll see the Roblox home screen.
-
Select “Avatar” from the navigation menu. On the home page, click the menu button on the top left corner of the screen, which looks like a square with three horizontal bars. This brings up the navigation menu, where you can click “ Avatar ” to go to the Avatar Editor (character customization menu), adjust your character’s looks, and add all the cool new swag you bought at the Roblox shop.

Click one of the drop-down menus and pick a category to customize. In the Avatar Editor, you’ll see a horizontal menu with six options: Recent , Characters , Clothing , Accessories , Head & Body , and Animations . Each menu item will open up a drop-down menu with more options—and that’s where you can start customizing your character. [2] X Research source
- Recent : This tab shows any clothing or appearance customization options you’ve recently used, including anything currently equipped on your avatar.
- Characters : This tab shows any characters you’ve purchased or made on Roblox.
- Clothing : This tab allows you to customize your character’s clothing and view all currently available clothing, including anything you’ve purchased.
- Accessories : This tab allows you to edit your character’s accessories, including hats, glasses, masks, necklaces, bags, and other available custom accessories.
- Head & Body : This tab lets you edit your character’s appearance, including their skin color, head shape, hair, face, and body shape.
- Animations : This tab lets you assign animations and emotes to your character.

Click on the item icon you want to add to your character. Customizing your character on Roblox is super simple: all you need to do is find the item you want, click on it, and it’ll appear on your character (shown on the left side of the character customization screen). Once selected, the item icon will darken, and a gray check mark will appear on its upper right corner (so you can tell the item has been equipped). [3] X Research source
- To remove clothes and other customization options from your character, simply click on the item icon you want to remove.
- The darkened icon will revert to the default lighter gray color, and the check mark will disappear. You’ll see the change on your character; the item you deselected will also disappear.

Customize your character’s entire body. In Clothing , you can click on each clothing type on the menu to choose your character’s outfit. Similarly, in Accessories , select each body part to choose custom accessories. In Head & Body , select body part options to change your avatar’s physical appearance. You can wear a maximum of 3 hats, 1 shirt, 1 pair of pants, 1 face, 2 arms, 2 legs, 1 package, and 1 gear at once. [4] X Research source

Earn Robux to buy items from the Roblox shop. Robux is the currency used in Roblox’s Marketplace, so you’ll need Robux to get new items. If you're a member of the Builder's Club, you earn a certain amount of Robux a day. You can also earn them in-game and buy them in bundles from the Marketplace.
- Builder's club members can sell old shirts, hats, and so on, and keep 70% of the profits.
- If you develop games on Roblox, you can use ads to make some in-game cash. [5] X Research source
-
Log into Roblox.com and click on “Marketplace.” At top of your screen, you’ll see a gray horizontal bar with a “ Marketplace ” button to the left. This will bring you to Roblox’s Marketplace , where you can browse different clothing items, accessories, and features by category and type of customization. When you find something you like (and have enough Robux), purchase it! [6] X Research source
- To buy an item, click “Add to Cart,” or click on the item itself and then tap the “Buy” button.
- If you don’t have enough Robux, you’ll be prompted to buy both the item and more Robux to pay for it.
-
Browse the Marketplace for free items. If you don’t want to spend any Robux (or real money), that’s fine, too! Some creators give away their Roblox creations for free; simply use a filter to browse the Marketplace’s free items . Anything that costs 0 Robux can be easily added to your cart or “purchased” outright!
-
Equip the gear you purchased in the Avatar Editor. Once you’ve bought something, return to the Avatar Editor by going to the navigation menu (the square with 3 horizontal gray lines) and clicking “ Avatar .” You’ll now be able to see your purchases in their respective categories, and you can equip them on your Roblox characters.
