Here's the thing about haters; They don't live your life. Period. Lately I've been dealing with other females, who have an issue with my age (56), and the fact that I"m an old punk/goth. I've gotten "You're too old to have pink hair, you're too old to be a punk/goth, grow up, act your age, quit trying so hard, wear normal clothes". The fact that other women are trying to tear me down, which is beyond me. All you can do is LIVE YOUR LIFE And be Happy! Everyone else can just fuck off.
@@pikachurose3067 I'm now 60, all if what I said still applies. I haven't changed a thing, (except hair color, it's lavender right now) Thanks for the comment.
Agreed!!! We are all on this earth for a short period, live it up to what you want to do. I am glad you don't allow others to pressure you to dictate your life. So inspiring!
And because they do not know how to handle diversity and people who are different from the mainstream. Unintelligent, immature and unknowing assholes, honestly. I can't relate with them or the majority.
as a fellow goth who lives on the gold coast, i completely understand all the stares and etc. you learn to block them out and continue doing your thing, and sometimes the odd whisper behind your back does not go unnoticed...
The best sentence for haters I find is : “Haters don't really hate you, they hate themselves; because you're a reflection of what they wish to be” By Yaira N
just be you're selve :) wear what you love and you'll be happy with you're selve,-so no body others opinion cares. How could it be wrong, if youre happy with it?!
Giselle D Becoming goth isn't as scary as it seems, I've been goth for almost 3 years now and the first couple of months i started out i got a lot of hate for it mostly by my family and freinds but families are different they could not mind you being goth as long as your happy and you like it, 1 tip I'll give you for bullies is never EVER take anything they say serious because if you do that you'll get all depressed and suicidal (belive me).. like i said it's not as scary as most people think
I always feel so inspired when I watch your videos! You radiate such a lovely energy, you're so positive and honest and all around lovely person! I also love that you have a little TY Bat in the background - Igor isn't it? I have one too!
ReeRee Phillips ahh so cute! I always get the little Halloween ones - do you have the little cat with different coloured eyes? I think she's called shadow? Where I work we sell TY beanies - I love arranging them haha
Blaze TheMermaid SO LUCKY! I don't have that one, we get limited stock in Aus, but every now and then, I find a site from the UK or US who ships to Australia ;P xx
Im so inspired, from one mother to another I applaud you in how strong you are! Im finally embracing my identity as a goth and yes my family is freaking out but I feel very liberated :) thanks for sharing your beauty
Vegan pasta bake is so good! I make one with spinach and broccoli that always seems to be a hit with my family. My favourite thing I've ever made was a vegan lasagna though. My sister's demanded I make it for Christmas day lol. I hope I can remember how to do it - I found the recipe on Pinterest but started ignoring it about a quarter of the way through and just made it up as I went along.
I really like your longer vlogs! A pleasure to listen to and watch. I'm also fueled with plants, so that's a bonus with you!:) I do believe Finland (my home country) to be a pretty easy place for alternative people, at least with the dressing up bit. Three or four months of spring and summer and the rest of the year is quite dark and cold, many listen to metal/rock/gloomy music. Of course there are some judgemental people, but that's inevitable. Hope you and your family can visit Finland some time. Keep on being as awesome as you are!:)
Thankyou for sharing and I really love your whole look!!! Its lovely to be a mum and have a special girl in your life isnt it precious. I feel very lucky too!!
I live in Asheville NC and I wish you lived Here! We have a large lovely Gothic community and nobody would even give you a second glance! I saw a group dancing in downtown the other day. I think you are so beautiful and kind and lovely!
I don't usually follow people on TH-cam or on any social platform obsessively, but there's something about you that really catches my attention. I'm sorry if this sounds creepy. I absolutely love your style as I dress very similar and do my makeup the same way, I draw inspiration from your looks as well. but as well as that, you genuinely seem like an honest and lovely person, and I relate to you a lot. thank you for your work, I really enjoy every video or pictures you take. you have no idea how much confidence you give me to be who I am and not be afraid to hide it :)
I was a young mother. I had my eldest at age 17 and my second child aged just 19. Your a brilliant TH-camr. Keep doing what your doing and I will keep watching you.
I'm sorry you've been thru some traumatic experiences. I've actually dealt with the same (in regards to seeing family abused). Unfortunately in my case; the best decisions were not made over and over again and I had to make the choice to walk out and leave it all behind. I'm glad things worked out after all for you. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Your makeup looked lovely as always :)
Ooomg,i'm so happy ur going to do a video about your hair!! I was dying to see what kind of products you use in him and what do you do for make him look so beautiful,nice and long!! Can't wait to see it
I love what you said about haters and emotions. All so true and well put. I also understand you well on the parent issue. My stepfather is very difficult to like, but far easier to just ignore and not hate either. LOL. Gomez and I get the "It's not Halloween yet," thing all the time and we just give them our spooky smiles and say,"But it is!" Morticia
Thanx for sharing💜 I think people need to look within a person instead of how they choose to dress and I do agree with you that you shouldn't worry about what others think...Loving your makeup also 👍🏻 sending love from California
I find it sad that people laugh at you...all I can say is different and unique scares people. You are beautiful, and have an awesome style and personality! :)
That is so cute that your daughter picks out your outfits sometimes. I have a request! A year or two ago there was a movement where parents would let their children pick out their outfits for the week and they would photograph the outfits chosen (on the day of and on your person obviously). It would be neat if you made a video like that.
I am shocked. That mother that got stuck and you had helped her, yet she still is not nice to you... What a shame. You are a beautiful human being for being nice to her! Also your makeup is stunning !
Great video, so interesting! Also happy you have a hair video coming as I've been really wanting to hear about that. (That sucks that the first one had to be scrapped, but that's life). 😊
I'm brand new to your channel and it's lovely to see an Australian goth youtuber. Hope to see your weightloss/eating disorder video soon, I know you mentioned it's hard to make (understandably) but I think it would be fantastic to hear you talk about it all. Have a good day!
I absolutely relate to "no one says anything to me when I'm with my partner" mines 6'4 giant beard an tattoos I love the feeling of knowing no one will say anything
I've told you this before but, I've been goth 17yrs now and I have a collection of shopkins stuffies I also collect comics and comic related merchandise, I'm a huge nerd one of the ones who lined up early for the release of the NES mini LOL one of my favorite colours is pink..... I hope that goths like you and I can make younger goths feel comfortable to be themselves and not to let others tell them who they are.
Great Q&A video! Loving your makeup and clothing today. 👌 I find the GC to be a very weird place (I'm from Adelaide). Hope you guys have a lovely Xmas. 🎉
I started wearing eyeliner when I was ten. My mom told me I wasn't supposed to wear it to school. So naturally me being her daughter I didn't listen to her. 😏 It was the only makeup that I could apply really well and it didn't require any tools to lug around. And they came in different colours.😄 Lovely video.😊
I live at the Gold Coast and everything you said was so true! I love wearing elegant gothic dresses/capes and people always gawk, point and laugh at me. 😅
I'm sorry that people do it to you too :( Hopefully, the goth scene experiences a resurgence in the next few years. The goth scene used to be so big up in Brisbane...now its non-existent
All those reasons you mentioned about the Gold Coast are why I left. Apart from Brisbane having a slightly better heavy music scene. I do still get the occasional comment and stare but it's no where near as bad. I can usually just block it out with headphones when I'm alone or give back a sassy comment like "it's halloween everyday".
Sailor Moon was also one of my favorites!! You look beautiful, your daughter is cute as buttons and I love how she's such a little babybat, I also have that sort of social anxiety and tend to go out in public after work when I'm in uniform so I can't be considered not normal but when I'm with Dee who's a big muscular metalhead biker, I'm just myself, obviously I've found much to relate to in this video as I do to a lot of your videos 😂😂😂 Can't wait for part two!
Oh and I'm excited for your hair routine video as mine is close to the same length and I need to know some vegan products I can start putting in it to help it grow long and healthy like yours ☺️
Visual kei (kay) is both a music genre and a fashion, much like emo or goth, that originated in Japan and focuses on combing many other styles into something unique to each individual who identifies with the culture. One of the main themes in visual kei is androgyny or femininity, because for the Japanese that's pretty easy to pull off with a little makeup or lack thereof, and men are often seen wearing skirt-like garments over the top of pants, long hair, fake eyelashes, and makeup to make the eyes appear larger and brighter. Women in visual kei have a more diverse range of styles, some go for the androgynous tomboy look while others the polar opposite with lolita. Visual kei is associated with big hairstyles, usually spiked and dyed with bright streaks. The clothes are like the child of emo and goth now going through it's rebellious phase after its parents divorced, and unable to choose between them. The music is definitely closer to emo than goth but features elements of pop, rock, metal, electronic, honestly anything they can make work. Bands tend to have at least 4 or 5 members much like rock, metal and emo bands. Sadly, visual kei has gone unknown to most of the world, and the only country other than Japan to produce successful bands to my knowledge is Sweden, with bands such as Kerbera (who have a music video featuring Adora Batbrat), and BatAAr (who have a song in Tekken 7) Many visual kei bands have their music featured in pop culture like anime and games. Most visual kei bands from Japan I know of I discovered through opening theme songs to my favorite shows. Hope that helps anyone curious but also I'm no expert yes you may notice my name is Kei no I did not literally name myself after a subculture its just a multilingual pun that takes too long to understand that became a highschool nickname and stuck :)
may I offer you a tip for a brilliant facial moisturizer. ..pure rose hip oil...just a few drops at night before bed does wonders for your skin. I've used it for over 25 years now and it really helps especially when it comes to quick healing of burns and blemishes. It doesnt leave the skin feeling greasy as it soaks in very quickly. Other than rose hip I also only wash my face twice a day. :) PS...are you loving these nightly storms as much as I? :)
You are so incredibly stunning !!! Don't pay attention to the haters love, they wouldn't know true beauty if it smaked them in the face . Be who you are, you are perfect as you are. Kisses from Greece
I always use black liquid lipstick as eyeliner, it works so well❤️ how young did you start dying your hair? I'm allowed to wear makeup and everything but since I still live with my parents I haven't been allowed dye mine yet😬 also are you ever planning on visiting Ireland? xx
There is just soooo many influencies in visual kei fashion and music! I've been into it for almost a decade now, and the best advice I could give would be : do what you want with this fashion. It's a really creative fashion, so you can obviously mix it with goth. There is a "dark side" to the visual kei fashion highly inspired by goth/punk influences! Look at the band Moi dix mois for example, they are goth AF and still visual kei. Visual kei is so free that it wouldn't surprise me if someone was mixing beethoven with marilyn manson to create music and fashion. Every fashion subculture is somehow linked to music, but not as tightly as the visual kei movement in my opinion. The look of the band is as important as the music in this subculture. It's the same for the fans! With visual kei, you have to try and yes, mix diffrent fashions to have a nice outfit. This fashion after all is all about being yourself. Just like any fashion ;) Don't ever be afraid to express yourself.
I can't believe that anyone would want to hurt someone so beautiful and pure as you, or dare to laugh. I guess us alternative folks are a kind that the rest of the human race just isn't ready to except for who we really are. x
I like having a set routine too..and I have stuff that's neurologically wrong with my brain too..though it might not be the same thing as whatever yours is..though it would be super cool..
It kind of is. Its a catch 22 because on one hand, its a haven of awesome Vegetarian/Vegan restaurants and Concerts, but on the other hand, the people aren't very nice.
Here's the thing about haters; They don't live your life. Period. Lately I've been dealing with other females, who have an issue with my age (56), and the fact that I"m an old punk/goth.

Agreed!!! We are all on this earth for a short period, live it up to what you want to do. I am glad you don't allow others to pressure you to dictate your life. So inspiring!
The best thing about you is how calm you always are, no drama and tension in your videos. That's so rare these days.
Thank you
Who ever laughs at you is superficial and insecure because your beautiful inside and out
Miss Murder so true
And because they do not know how to handle diversity and people who are different from the mainstream. Unintelligent, immature and unknowing assholes, honestly. I can't relate with them or the majority.
Ree Phillips is simply beautiful. She has a beautiful soul too. Too bad we don't hear from her anymore. It's always nice to hear from her. ✌️
honestly I can't see how anybody can give you hate comments you're so nice and pretty like what benefit could they get from doing that?
I have no clue. I don't understand people who 'hate watch' people. Why subject yourself to something you dislike?
And thank you, beautiful

It was really nice to get to know you on a more personal level :) I can't wait for the other q&a parts.
The part where you talked about your daughter helping you with your clothes was my favorite. She's lucky to have such a stylish mother :)
I love it that you smile most and brightest when speaking of your daughter. Mother's true love
I always feel so inspired when I watch your videos! You radiate such a lovely energy, you're so positive and honest and all around lovely person! I also love that you have a little TY Bat in the background - Igor isn't it? I have one too!

You and Kaya are friends!? 😱 my life is complete!! 😭😍 super jealous!
She's a sweetheart. I hope I can meet her in person when I'm in europe next year

Brisbane used to have a large Goth community, but they all either moved away or are hiding :( xx
I can't stop rewatching your videos. Love you reeree 🖤
You're so amazing! I love your Q&A videos, I feel like we all get to know you a lot more. Thanks for being you, it's an inspiration.
I'm Irish, live in Ireland, and I don't drink. It blows people's minds!

People should just keep their opinions to themselves.people should dress how they want.i think you are beautiful 💜
I agree
your tips for boost of confidence just made my night, thank you so much ♡

I really love how you put classical music in your videos it reminds me of when I was in orchestra and I do still play violin but for fun. 😊
I used to play violin as a child! I always wanted to play Cello though
I've never seen someone so beautiful in my life. I want to be that pretty
Woman I love you, you're so inspiring ♡
And the bed dekoration is beautiful
I always respond to haters with a smile and say i m sorry that you havent learned to love yourself yet .... Once u do that the hate will go away
All those reasons you mentioned about the Gold Coast are why I left. Apart from Brisbane having a slightly better heavy music scene. I do still get the occasional comment and stare but it's no where near as bad.

I always use black liquid lipstick as eyeliner, it works so well❤️ how young did you start dying your hair? I'm allowed to wear makeup and everything but since I still live with my parents I haven't been allowed dye mine yet😬 also are you ever planning on visiting Ireland? xx
You are amazing person,

There is just soooo many influencies in visual kei fashion and music! I've been into it for almost a decade now, and the best advice I could give would be : do what you want with this fashion.
It's a really creative fashion, so you can obviously mix it with goth. There is a "dark side" to the visual kei fashion highly inspired by goth/punk influences! Look at the band Moi dix mois for example, they are goth AF and still visual kei.
Visual kei is so free that it wouldn't surprise me if someone was mixing beethoven with marilyn manson to create music and fashion. Every fashion subculture is somehow linked to music, but not as tightly as the visual kei movement in my opinion. The look of the band is as important as the music in this subculture. It's the same for the fans!
With visual kei, you have to try and yes, mix diffrent fashions to have a nice outfit. This fashion after all is all about being yourself. Just like any fashion ;) Don't ever be afraid to express yourself.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!
Your makeup looks amazing
I can't believe that anyone would want to hurt someone so beautiful and pure as you, or dare to laugh. I guess us alternative folks are a kind that the rest of the human race just isn't ready to except for who we really are. x
You are just so beautiful, facial structure and features are just exquisite ❤️
And your bed is a dream
I like having a set routine too..and I have stuff that's neurologically wrong with my brain too..though it might not be the same thing as whatever yours is..though it would be super cool..
the gold coast sounds like my own personal hell
It kind of is. Its a catch 22 because on one hand, its a haven of awesome Vegetarian/Vegan restaurants and Concerts, but on the other hand, the people aren't very nice.
ReeRee Phillips Thanks for uploading this video Ree Ree.
