Perhaps the most instantly recognizable thing about Joe Dirt is his mullet. You will need to find a wig that is already cut into a mullet style. You could also find a sandy blonde wig and cut and style it yourself. He also has very prominent sideburns. You can recreate these sideburns using brown face paint along with your temples and near your ears. 

After securing the wig, you can work on his clothing. Joe Dirt wears a lot of plaids. To look at the part, you will need a sleeveless orange plaid shirt to begin. He wears regular blue denim acid wash jeans that you may already have in your closet. If not, they are easy to find. Finish off the core part of the outfit by donning white sneakers. 

Joe Dirt wears a black watch that should be easy to find. He also carries a wooden mop, which symbolizes his career as a janitor. Carrying a mop will make it more than obvious who you are supposed to be.
