Replacing a player model

Okay, so I know this is probably impossible on the default coding with all the procedures, but what I want to know is how to code it manually. For the purpose of my mod, I am creating a different model for the player. It would still use the skin, bit it would make hair for them, and then by pressing a button they could transform into something. I'm relatively sure this is possible with Java coding, but how would you do so, and where would I even go in to code this? Could somebody explain this in baby language to me? Thank you so much, I have been wondering this FORVER! 

This is not really possible…

This is not really possible in any easy way, especially not in "baby language"

You will need to learn Java really well, and then how Minecraft rendering works and how to hook into it with Mixins.

You can however animate player with custom animations using https://mcreator.net/plugin/68758/goldfuscate

Goldfuscate is really well put together for animating the player, just keep in mind the armor doesn't move with the player in certain situations. Use wisely
