Gotta express my uniqueness by dressing like everyone else
To be fair: The scene was much smaller back then and many emo kids were basically scorned and beaten for the emo and scene aesthetic.
Yup... It was the main reason I stopped wearing make up and dressing like that. The bullying became unbearable.
Would be fun to try it again now, though... But I'm 30 so it'll probably look dumb lol
Yeah the bullying was my main reason as well. I mean you could still rock that aesthetic to a show, but the most I feel comfortable to do nowadays is black nail polish, lol. I could get away with more on stage probably, but I won't feel comfortable like that now to be honest. The anxiety and bad experiences cut too deep I guess.
I might go and try it out next week, still got my old clothes somewhere maybe...
Just dig it out and add bits of it to what you usually wear day to day. You don't have to go full 2006.
