EVANIA, 18, from North Carolina, is the quintessential 'Cyber Goth'... A look that her father has never really approved of! With her elaborate hair tubes, goggles and makeup, Evania always stands out from the crowd. Evanina told Transformed: "People scream at me in the streets because of my style. This is my peak, this is who I am, and this is how I want to present myself! It's extreme, bold, and I love it!" Despite feeling her most genuine self dressing this way, Evania has experienced judgment because of her style. Included in this is her father, who still struggles with her style. Evania said, "My dad being an EDM DJ influenced my look today because he essentially got me into rave and the culture. How my dad would prefer me to dress is honestly a little bit more tame. He just wants her to keep it feminine and keep it subtle, nothing bold and scary!" Today, with the help of makeup artist Jenny, Evania is finally giving her father the dream daughter he's always wanted. She's leaving her 'Cyber Goth' style behind and transforming into a classic feminine style! But Will Evania's Dad actually realise he's grown to love the Cyber goth after all?

00:00People will scream at me in the streets because of my style, but this is my peak.
00:03Extreme and bold. It's been years since my dad has seen me outside of my cyber goth.
00:08I'm gonna be giving him a taste of what could have been.
00:15My name is Evania. I grew up listening to a lot of like electronic dance music.
00:20My dad's a DJ. I always grew up loving goth subculture and alternative styles
00:24in general. Having those like roots, my love for like black and white and just
00:28goth in general. And then my love for EDM just kind of put this look together.
00:31Oh my God. Hello. It's nice to see you.
00:35Oh my goodness.
00:37Kendra is my best friend. She is my, the person I go to for everything.
00:41My ride or die. If you go to her for everything, she is just like my number one.
00:45How does she dress?
00:46Honestly, the only way I could describe her outfit is colorful.
00:49You know, as much jewelry as she can, as much color as she can.
00:53Just like a big confetti bomb in my opinion. The opposite of me, truly.
00:56What are your honest thoughts about my cyber goth?
00:59I've always like loved like your look and your contacts are my favorite part.
01:03I can never get over the contacts. They're so cool.
01:06It makes you look like like a clown, but in a good way.
01:08Yes. Yes.
01:09Like it's so creepy.
01:10Yes. You get it.
01:11In the makeup.
01:13Cyber goth is a mix of goth and rave culture.
01:16And so it takes those elements of like darkness of it, futuristic, dystopian cyberpunk.
01:21How old were you when you started dressing like this?
01:23I was probably around 11. You know, it started off with like a little bit of eyeshadow smudged
01:27under my eyes and some black skinny jeans I cut myself.
01:30And then it just slowly transforms as I got older and kind of into the scene more.
01:33This is my peak. Like this is who I am and this is how I want to present myself.
01:37So like genuinely, I am honestly like curious.
01:39How do your parents feel about your style and like do they accept it?
01:43Like, you know, at first they were a little hesitant about it, especially my dad.
01:46My dad being an EDM DJ influenced my look today because essentially what got me into rave culture
01:51and just the scene in general, but then how my dad would prefer me to dress is honestly a little bit
01:56more tame. He just wanted me to be more feminine and keep it subtle and you know, nothing bold and scary.
02:04Today, I'm going to be transforming into like a different version of myself.
02:07And what I'm excited to tell you is that I'm actually taking a lot of inspo from you with all the colors
02:12and the hyper feminine and like all of that. And I'm also going to like show my parents,
02:16like they've only seen me in black and white. You know that I only wear black and white.
02:19I'll see you soon. Okay. I'll see you soon.
02:24Hello. Hello. I'm Jenny. I'm here to do your makeup.
02:27I'm Vania. Yes. Come on in.
02:28Are you ready for this makeover? Yes. I'm excited.
02:31Here we go. Okay. For this hyper feminine look, we're going to do cute flirty lashes, pink blush.
02:38You're not used to blush. No, I don't wear it. Like I like that pale like edge.
02:41Ghostly look, you know, and blush like brings life into your face. I don't do that. Okay.
02:46I have totally been judged in public because of my style.
02:49I've had people in the schools of my hallway,
02:51like chase me down and ask me a bunch of questions about how I look.
02:54And I've had people point and scream literally. Yeah. It's just absurd, but I've made my piece with it.
03:01Who are you revealing this look to? My mom, my dad, and my brother.
03:05Are they excited? Um, I hope so.
03:08My family, when I first started doing this look,
03:11they all told me I looked like predator and they were a little freaked out.
03:14And it was a little like, wow, this is really different.
03:19Does your family ask you to dress differently?
03:21I think in the event of like something formal, it's always respectful, but it's just,
03:26hey, Evan, just, just, you tone it down a little bit.
03:31We're going to use this natural tone palette on you, create your soft eye look. Here we go.
03:36How are you feeling?
03:37Excited. I don't think I've ever worked this long on my eyelid before. I usually go in with one color,
03:43so I'm very excited to see what blend you're creating.
03:46Do you normally just go in with black?
03:47Yeah, I just smudge it around.
03:50What's the reason for the transformation?
03:52I guess I want to show my family a version of their daughter and sister that they're never
03:57going to have pretty much, you know? Yeah, they've never seen like me in this way and
04:02I really want to surprise them and show them what they could have had.
04:06What do they like and they really like to see that way?
04:09Yeah, I mean, too bad for them, I guess.
04:13My family has made their peace with my look and now to be completely reverting back,
04:18it might give them like a, like, oh, this is what we could have had.
04:21We're happy we've made our peace with her, with her look, but this is what it could have been.
04:25You know what I mean?
04:26So we're going to use the Patrick Ta blush. She's seductive.
04:29We're going to apply the cream first and then the powder on top. She's blushing.
04:38I'm mortified.
04:40I feel like I look crazy. I'm blonde. Do I look natural?
04:49That's so funny.
04:52You ready for your big review?
04:54Yeah, I guess so.
04:55Three, two, one.
04:56Oh my God. Oh my God.
05:03Oh, I'm so out of my element.
05:06I don't think I look bad, but I definitely don't love it.
05:09And I don't think blonde's my color or light blue.
05:12I don't think any of it fits me.
05:14I'm happy with the makeup. I think you did a really good job with the makeup.
05:17I don't like being blonde and I don't like the color palette.
05:20I feel like it just doesn't suit me. I don't like the heels either.
05:24Do you think your family's going to like it?
05:26Um, honestly, no.
05:29What do you honestly think of everyone's cyber guy style?
05:33I do hope that this is a fun phase and she's a fun person so I don't have any problems with it.
05:39But I'd like to see a little transformation. I'm excited.
05:41She mentioned that you wanted her to dress normally and tone it down before. Is that true?
05:45It's true.
05:47For certain occasions, I guess there could be moments where I'm like, yeah, you know.
05:52I think for me, it's like, mom, you know, she's looking like a woman now. So it's like,
05:57tone it down, cover up, that kind of stuff. Because, you know, you get a little...
06:00Sometimes I'm like, okay.
06:04She's a very lively, beautiful soul. She's got a lot of talent with the stuff she does.
06:08Absolutely.
06:09But they're, you know, it's only about not always having to present that way 100% of the time.
06:23Oh my god! What?
06:27You've got to be kidding.
06:29I've been crying.
06:30Oh my word.
06:30I'm actually crying.
06:32Daughter.
06:32This is not you.
06:33My goodness.
06:35Oh my god.
06:36Wow, you look really different.
06:38Yeah.
06:38I know.
06:39The makeup, everything.
06:40Oh wow, honey. You look so beautiful.
06:42Dad, you like it?
06:44I love it. Yeah, breathtaking. Absolutely breathtaking.
06:47I like it.
06:48It's going like Static X to Jason Aldean.
06:50It's like...
06:53I mean, you're gorgeous in both looks, but we don't get to see a lot of them to appreciate
06:58all the range of your beauty.
06:59That's what I was saying.
07:00That's why I knew you would say that.
07:01Yeah.
07:01But that's what I wanted to do.
07:02I was like, they've never seen me like this.
07:04Like, I've been dressing like dark since I was like 11.
07:06I know.
07:07How small does that?
07:08I definitely did the bra.
07:09Oh my god.
07:10Do you like the hair color?
07:11It's actually kind of fire.
07:12I love the hair color.
07:13Yeah.
07:14For whatever reason, maybe the softer look or the way you feel, like that...
07:17I think it's the hair.
07:18You think I'm serious, you're really giving off.
07:19Like, hey.
07:20Like, your smile is just like, bam, right now.
07:24I'm a little insecure.
07:25I like it, but you know what?
07:26You do you.
07:27That's right.
07:28That's right.
07:28I mean, I see you for your soul, so you know.
07:30Aw.
07:31Yeah.
07:31Aw.
07:33It was really overwhelming because I'm just not used to my parents reacting that strongly
07:37to how I look anymore.
07:38You know, I'm very...
07:39They're used to my style.
07:40They're used to the way that I dress and seeing them get genuinely emotional.
07:44It was overwhelming.
07:45Like, my heart was like beating out of my chest.
07:47I didn't know what to think of it.
07:48I was completely blown away.
07:50Absolutely.
07:51I concur.
07:52All right, Dad, what about you?
07:53It's shocking.
07:55I wasn't prepared.
07:56I didn't know who my child was.
07:58Of course I didn't.
07:58You know what I mean?
07:59Like, oh my god.
07:59The million dollar smile.
08:01It's a look you've always wanted for your daughter.
08:04I don't think that's a fair question.
08:06I want my daughter to be happy with herself.
08:08I don't think I would ever tone down my cyber goth look or stop it, you know.
08:12I know they might wish that I would tone it down a little bit and they might want to see this side
08:16of me more, but at the end of the day, like, I love the way that I dress and I would never change for anybody.
08:31I don't think so.
08:33You know what I mean?
08:34You know what I mean?
08:36I don't think so.
