Tbf TOS era male Klingons didn't look too different from humans either

Yeah, but they worked a little harder.

The dirty truth is that almost all sci-fi "aliens" look a hell of a lot like humans.

Or humans look a lot like sci fi aliens.

They really didn't give much direction at all on how Klingons should look back then. The actor and makeup artist basically came up with it on the spot.
