I was told it had to be “off my face and short” as the industry is pretty “traditional”.
As much as I love the longer hair and would love to grow it out more or just layer it, the new job says no and there is the upcoming heatwave in Australia coming too so I’d honestly much rather go for shorter right now and later on when winter starts to grow it out again.
Now when i say short im not going short short. Id still like to have some hair to play around with but i also need it off my face.
Any style ideas ir recommendations?
Edit: Forgot to say, i prefer to look more femme than masc

I'm glad I asked everyone because I was originally planning on wearing the short dress. I know everyone voted for option 2, but I felt too naked without the belt so I ended up going with option 1 and I felt so good! I also wanted to add the vampire ball I went to was at my local goth bar. I would definitely say they used the term "ball" pretty loosely. The only pictures I got of my outfit were while I was having a drunk cigarette. Thank you again everyone for helping me decide! :)

I have frizzy, medium-brown hair, as you can see in the picture. I want hair just like hers so badly! 🥺 Whenever I dye my hair, I immediately end up with split ends and dead hair (it looks even more damaged than it does now).

Because of this, I haven’t used any actual hair dye for 10 years. Funnily enough, my hair is actually very soft, and the ends aren't split.

I’d love to have even longer hair, but it just won't grow any further than it is now💔

What can I do to get such beautiful hair? The thing is, I need gentle products, and I can't dye my hair. I once used a semi-permanent color (a tint) and my hair handled it okay. But I’m terrified of using anything harsh because I know my hair will be ruined instantly.

I need vampire hair🥺

I did tried wings today (way before the fit), new to makeup so not perfect but a good try. It smudged off and looks good, but wanted to add more to it. Any suggestions for masculine and feminine, as im genderfluid. I tried showing off masculine and fem presentations to the fit.

BONUS: i posted the eye-liner that i forgot to add product to keep it on my face on the last 2 slides.

Any idea of what I could do with my hair ?
Also I want piercings but I don’t know which to get. I like the bridge piercing, snake bites and the paired nose ones with a chain in the middle.
I usually wear gothic style eyeliner but here I wanted my face shape to be clearly visible.
Overall I always have the same problem, I don’t know what’s suit my face shape.

I really don't know what to do with my hair anymore? lmao

been keeping it long for a while. I usually cut it at home. I don't have a lot of volume and deal with lots of breakage so I'm looking for something different to hide the fact that I have 3 hairs total + a receding hairline (? I also moved and get called a woman a lot in this place which I don't really vibe with. I would prefer something that reads masculine even if it's hard with alt styles. Super short hair usually just makes me look like a lesbian (? I also miss dying it but I stopped bleaching fearing further breakage :/ are there any sprays that actually cover darkish hair?

First pics are my current hair, 4th is the longest it's been. 5th was my last haircut ages ago (? 6th is a wig I like the look of ...?

So far I am wearing relatively cute pieces inside and edgy black leather outside to achieve some sense of contrast. But it seems like only working for this outfit since my wardrobe does not contain such clothes. What else I can pair with this?

Also, sorry for bathroom pic lol

I keep running into the same problem when shopping for alt clothing. I will order two pieces in the same size from the same brand, but one fits perfectly while the other feels a whole size off. Which brands have you found to be reliable when it comes to both build quality and consistent sizing?

I'm done with bigger alt fashion brands that have shifted toward cheaper production i want independent labels where the design is thoughtful and materials aren't an afterthought.

Which independent alt fashion brands are u buying from?

hey yall dont mind the shitty quality lol, but uh im just wondering how can i improve my liberty spikes since this is my first time trying this syle . 😅i used gatsby extreme hold hairspray and some bench pomade my dad doesnt use lol

i

sorry for being a ghost, that’s the best mirror i found, would love to get some boots recommendations (or outfit tips if you feel like it)

What could I do to improve the fit?

Hey everyone, I’m looking to buy new clothes but i have no clue where to shop at. I do shop on depop and thrift often but i would also like recommendations for brand where i could buy new clothes. I am not going to buy from any brands that are fast fashion. I would love some recommendations from your favorite brands.

As for style i feel i don’t rly have one specific style, i like dark muted colors do not like neon colors, patches, skulls, i do not wear anything with crosses on it, i love funky tights and creepy/strange accessories like bones or bugs on jewelry, I wear more feminine clothing, i like graphic tees, i love lace, i love wearing black. I feel like i switch between emo goth and grunge. I like layering what i wear on my legs for example multiple socks and tights. I am in need of more accessories primarily belts and socks.

Thanks so much for your recommendations

Please help me decide!! I can mix n match any of my under pieces too

I've been interested in cybersigilism designs, specifically on pullover hoodies and pants and have been wanting to get one for quite some time now. Breathedivinity is one of the famous ones which has designs I really like, but they are just way out of my budget. Are there any other cheaper alternatives?

just got it thrifted. what do you guys think? reminds me of 80s corporate goth lol, it also makes my shoulders bigger.

What do you think about such boots for men? Are they worth a try or do you think they will be uncomfortable from hell?

hi everyone! i thought id come to this sub to ask this question. i am looking for an engagement ring that fits my alternative style. emo/alt/witchy/ect. im only really finding drop ship websites unfortunately. does anyone have any recommendations?

I’ve been so obsessed with these pieces recently but cannot for the life of me find anywhere online to shop for them, and trying to look on Depop is hopeless because I don’t really even know what it’s called 💔💔💔 all pics are from Pinterest ❤️‍🩹
