Timon Costume Guide

How to dress like Timon from The Lion King.

ABOUT TIMON:

Timon is a witty and carefree meerkat from Disney’s The Lion King. Known for his fast-talking personality, he embodies the philosophy of “Hakuna Matata,” promoting a carefree lifestyle. Timon is best friends with Pumbaa, a kind-hearted warthog, and together they provide comic relief throughout the story. When they encounter Simba, they take him in and teach him their laid-back ways.

How To Dress Like Timon

1. ONESIE – Start your Timon outfit with this adorable and super cuddly meerkat onesie.

2. SLIPPERS – Next, add a pair of equally cozy brown slippers for Timon’s feet.

3. FLOWER NECKLACE – Recreate the most iconic song of The Lion King with a traditional Hawaiian flower necklace.

4. SKIRT – Add a grass skirt and you are ready to dance all your troubles away!

5. HAIRSPRAY – Some temporary red hairspray will give you hair just like Timon’s.

6. FACE PAINT – Black face paint can be used to color in your nose, ears, and areas around your eyes.

7. BROWN PAINT – Finally, use some light brown paint to color the rest of your face and body.
