Maybe you want to threaten the bully at your school, shoo people away from you, or just seem more threatening in general. Maybe it's all about being tough or grunge. Want to find out how to perfect the "evil stare?" Of course! Read on.

Steps

  1. 1
    Place a mirror in front of you. Point the mirror so it is showing your face and shoulders. Clean the mirror to make your stare clearer. Tilt your head forward slightly. This works on most people depending on what you look like.
  2. 2
    Squint your eyes and push your eyebrows together then down and stare a while to confuse them.

  3. 3
    Push your lower jaw forward and either leave your mouth normal or do a frown.
  4. 4
    Do your current best evil stare in the mirror. Do this 3 times, mark each one out of 10. If all your stares score ten, you do not need to read this.
  5. 5
    Write down or remember what needs improving on your stare. Pick one fault at a time, and then fix that fault.
  6. 6
    Ask a friend to help you. Stare at them with hard, fixed eyes, and try not to blink. If you manage to get him/her to back away, you have succeeded.
  7. 7
    Think of random things while you are staring. Some good things to picture in your head are ice cream, pizza, or apples. You could also just clear your head.
  8. 8
    If the "thinking of random things" doesn't work for you, you could imagine the person you loathe the most, and imagine that the person you are staring at is them. Just think "I don't like you. I can't stand you. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr..."
  9. 9
    Fold your arms.
  10. 10
    Put your eyebrows as low as you can get them.
