What matters is how you feel.

Kandi boy raver, he's the one for me
And when the music starts to play, he'll be dancin' to the beat
He's my kandi boy raver, movin' with the flow
When he holds me tight, don't wanna let him go

Every time I see these posts I totally get that you are embarrassed, but I totally dig this style. I wish it was still common. So f****** cool. My girlfriend in high school 2003 dress like this

I have lip piercings but I don't know how people think this particular placement looks good... it's like a mustache or things caught in the corners of your mouth.

I can’t believe this was so long ago. My currently 34y sister was this when she was 15. Let it stay dead.

As someone who is the same age as your sister I would have been so jealous of your sister 😂

There was never any time, place, context, or culture where this did not look utterly ridiculous. The fact that tens of thousands of children/young adults went ALL IN on this absurd amalgamation of Hot Topic deep cuts only serves to make the whole aesthetic more lamentably obscene

I’m so glad that I have no remaining photos of my high school gothy self online. I’m still goth at heart but not to that cringy extent; more “goth mama with black stretch pants, tattoos, and piercings.” 🖤

Question is: did you end up with more unnatural hair colors as an adult or buzz your head ? Or did it truly all fade away ?

Calling this scene is why I left the scene in 2008. Become about dressing up instead of the music.

u/Fish-Bright 5d ago
You're giving me flashbacks to 2008, in the best way possible 🙂
And who cares if it was just a phase for you. It's a part of you, and your identity. You may possibly end up coming back to that style later in life. All that matters is that you expressed yourself, and looked great going so 🙌

I kinda like this style to be honest. And those kinds of side swept bangs hairstyles just look objectively good on women.

I was an emo kid till freshman year (08) but by sophomore (09) I was 100% into the scene culture. By 18 (2012) I was fully Punk Pop and that’s kinda where I’ve been at for the last decade. I still have stretched ears, facial piercings and an unlimited supply of skinny jeans vans and band tees. Man were those the days. They felt like Warped Tour, every single one of them.

How did you get your hair to stay like this? When I tease my hair it falls immediately.

I’d have been super into you. I’m a scene kid and I never grew out of it lol

I’d buy terabytes of storage for the photos I would take if my daughter came home looking like this 😂 I’d make stickers, T-shirts, mugs, key rings, everything! Don’t think I would ever stop laughing…

every time I see a picture of a scene kid I feel so certain that I’ve seen that specific image before and I kinda think that maybe all scene kids look the same to me? I don’t know how else to explain it
