man I started dressing goth at 10 and I used to get so much shit from my parents I grew up in a christian household and my parents hated ittt I mean like there was a point were id hide all my jewelry in my boots b4 school and my makeup in my bra cause my parents would search my backpack to find my goth stuff sometimes and id do my makeup super goth and bad then my grandma would pick me up and id take it all off and my grandma was a real one so she always acted lost when my mom would ask if I wore any

Katie Bayliss oh SAME. I work an office job and they’re really cool about what I wear most of the time, but a lot of my clothes are wrinkled because I’m the only person in my family to work a more white-collar job and don’t really know how to take care of them. It’s really frustrating because they’ll send out announcements to the office about wrinkled clothing but I don’t know how to fix it because I don’t know how to iron clothes properly, and on top of that (until recently) lived in a college dorm where they didn’t want us to have irons. Like I’m wearing a suit and it’s clean... sorry I can’t keep wrinkles out of it because my family is poor and I don’t have that skillset

My parents won't let me wear ripped Jeans because they're "inappropriate." My Dad basically controls my mom who controls my wardrobe.

I'm not allowed to get it cut (shoulder length) because he said "You'll look like a boy." Wow! You are so right. Getting a haircut is the same as having my hair shaved off. And looking like a boy is absolutely the worst thing in the world! But srsly my parents get on my last nerve.

[@NIHIL_EGO]

I think that there's a concept like that called "Death of the ideal child". Basically, every parents makes up an idealized version of what they want their kid to be like. Firstly, physically ("Maybe he'll have your nose ? Or your father blue eyes !"), but also mentally ("He'll be a little troublemaker, just like his dad ! And I'm sure he'll love baseball as much as I do !"). As the child grow up, and become their own individual, the parents must accept the fact that the ideal child never existed, and to let it go. Its a vital part of parenting, and to accept your children as they are. Note that the death of the ideal child can be felt like an actual death of a close one, hence why some parents, when learning of their children non-heterosexuality or trans-identity, feels like their child died, as they must cope with the fact that the real and ideal child are two distinct beings.

My worst inteview became the best, they at first judged me because of my tattoos, then my very casual clothes, and one asked me a lot of personal questions, at some point I said "I am sorry, but you sound dumb. I don't know why you would ask that, when I have 4 years experience in something you dont have, you know I dont pretend I am a doctor because I am not.".

Most of these girls, if not ALL of them didn't need to have makeovers. The only girl that I think truly needed a makeover was the girl that was into gangs and gang-affiliation. Being affiliated with gangs is a really dangerous thing to even want to try and emulate, so I understand why her mother would want her to change. She could still dress "urban" without being gang-affiliated. The girl that bullied her blind mother and dropped out of school probably needed an attitude makeover. Besides that, none of these punk girls needed to be bashed and berated when a lot of them were actually really sweet and had great personalities. It's also really disgusting how they hired those "audience members" to act so nasty towards them. As for the other girl that was 14, which I'll take out of the "gang fashion" and categorize as "skimpy fashion", I do think that since she's younger she shouldn't flaunt her bodies as much as a grown woman should, but also it's very normal to wear a miniskirt, daisy dukes or a crop top. This was the 90s, so I think we've come a long way from back then, but we just need to quit sexualizing every aspect of women, especially young adolescent girls.

[@loverboy6149]

Hi there! I must say It made me really sad when you shot down sunny for saying that she was proud to be a drug-free teenager. YES it is true that being drug free doesn’t automatically make you a good person but I wanted to point out that she is standing up for her fashion community by saying this because people often assume that being of a certain style means you do drugs and misbehave so she is trying to fight negative stereotypes by stating that she is “straight-edge”. Also lots of kids come from vulnerable countries and communities where drug abuse by minors is common and it’s a tough battle for them to stay drug-free and off the streets with little or no support. So NO being drug free doesn’t make you a saint but people, especially KIDS are allowed to feel proud to not be on drugs, thank you! 💕

[@amanda1271]

She's allowed to feel proud, but that doesn't give her an excuse to pretend like she's better than others for it. The thing that needs to change is that people aren't educated on alternative fashions and make assumptions without knowing people who dress that way. If people took the time to learn, it would be a lot easier than her going on tv and arguing with another girl because she's not "straightedge" the way Sunny is. Sunny actually acted pretty annoying about the fact that she's straightedge in this episode. If she's proud about it, she doesn't need to brag about it as much as she can.

@@pinkrosa44 she went off cause people like that one girl give the alternative community a bad name and depending on what year this came out the aftermath of Columbine already messed up so many things for alternative community and assuming anyone who dresses in dark clothes and listening to punk/goth/industrial/metal automatically meant they wanted to kill people and were satanists so she had every right to be pissed off about that

[@kristall5928]

@@amanda1271 she wasn't bragging. Did you not hear the person shout out about what kind of drugs they were on? Have you never heard people ask gothic people what they have to be on to look like that? Ect.? It's more annoying for everyone to assume you do drugs and such so saying you don't and defending yourself is perfectly valid.

[@pinkrosa44]

I follow Sunnie on instagram. She's still punk and the uploader of that video on youtube :) her dad just made them go on the show for fun but was accepting in real life

[@Aster_Risk]

I didn't know she had an Instagram! I saw the video on her channel and I was really curious how she's doing.

[@sebastianramirez9402]

What's her Instagram?

Her dad looks punk leaning

[@scrappydudes1783]

i love cherelyn, she has the cutest/funniest facial expressions. seems like a fun gal.

[@ileeeenify]

Being of a certain age, I can tell you that shiny satin buttoned shirts had a moment in the 90s and didn’t seem tacky to us then! Also if I remember correctly, there were makeover shows like this making over girls who were “ too frumpy.” So no matter your style, it’s never going to be good enough for someone. Also also, unnatural hair colors really were uncommon back then. I remember it was kind of a big deal when Gwen Stefani dyed her hair blue.

[@florence4010]

They all look so visibly uncomfortable by their transformation

[@Snowy_Weather]

I remember when I went goth and my parents were actually supportive, I found out later they actually didn't really like the style. But the thing was.... it was my style and my clothes, and they didn't feel like they should have anything to say about what style I wanted to wear. That's really a good attitidue to have I think, so shoutout to my parents. XD They had their opinions but didn't push them on me. I'm 24 and just coming out of my goth phase now. XD

[@cedarpentowski5452]

Why were they constantly attacking that girl for wearing a sports jersey? What about all those guys in the crowd wearing jerseys? Are they wearing gang related clothing too? Also a lot of those "makeovers" make them look like waitresses

[@werewolfcrush2131]

in some places simply wearing a sports jersey actually can show others ur related in gang stuff! i don’t know which teams exactly, but in some places you’re told not to because of the dangers it comes along with

[@minnowlark9461]

I said it somewhere else (I like reading and responding to comments!) but she's dressing like a chola and the jersey is a Latin Kings reference. So yes, 'gang' dress.

[@-el-gato]

I feel like half of these mothers' real problems is they think their daughters dress "too gay" but tbh they all look awesome.

[@stephysteph8558]

The irony of watching a "alternative to normal" makeover from a different decade is that the alternative looks feel timeless but all the "normal" clothes worn by everyone else look hilarious and outdated.

[@Lunareon]

Oh wow, I had a lot of gang members in my class, if the hockey shirts were any indication. There are even photos of me in a hockey shirt as a todddler! Finland was a land of gangs in the 90's. u_u

“If the hockey shirts were any indication” I’m CACKLING

[@mayakaskinen888]

Suomiiiiiii

[@minnowlark9461]

I guess bc you're from Finland you might not know but she is very much dressed like a gang affiliated person especially with the king's jersey. She's obviously trying to pass as a chola and the king's jersey is a reference to the Latin Kings. I respect what the OP was doing when she said she wouldn't talk too much about it bc she's obviously not that informed on the style of poc in the 90s

[@cottonkandi3]

If someone doesn't design like a pastel punk themed shirt or something with "sugar and spikes" on it, with like Kurumi or something similar on it, then whats even the point

You get zealots in every flavour.

the fact that they're using depeche mode's i just cant get enough while they unveil the makeovers im,,,

There should be a show where the parents take their kids for makeovers, but then have to have a makeover in their kid's style so they understand how unconfortable it can be to be dressed in a way you don't like.

[@r.tyrell7323]

24:16 Honestly, Sunny's dad shouldn't even have an opinion. The dude looks like a hobo straight out of the sketchiest dark alley. I know this might be scripted but still, if I was her I would totally be also pointing out at him to have at least have his hair washed.

[@scythescythe884]

His hair is clean... but it needs conditioner and care for curly hair.

[@enderphoenix11]

Dude looks like a hobo wizard knock off of Hagrid, and tbh, not actually that bad of a look, imo. I like his floofy hair and beard, and while they could probably use a little bit more conditioner, I'd say they're worthy of a Beautiful Beard win.
