SHILOH, 18, from California, has a style that is known for standing out in a crowd. Shiloh describes his look as a combination of late 70's punk and 80's goth. Shiloh told Truly: "Of course I don't care about how other people see me because I don't do it for them. When I'm dressed up I feel so powerful, like 'main character' kind of energy." Today, Shiloh is doing something he thought he would never do... He's transforming into a traditional 'everyday glamorous' look. Shiloh's Partner Noe, loves the punk goth aesthetic that Shiloh dons, but how will he react after this shocking transformation? Will Shiloh hate his new look and want to get back to his punk goth ways as quickly as possible? Or will he be pleasantly surprised by the new image?

00:00I would describe my style as very late 70s punk, very 80s goth.
00:05When I'm all dressed up, I feel so powerful, so like main character kind of energy.
00:12Today, we are gonna have a makeup artist transform me from my regular goth look to an everyday glam look.
00:21No, it's neon green.
00:23No!
00:24Are you ready?
00:25Oh my gosh.
00:26I'm really excited to show my partner.
00:28I kind of want to freak him out a little bit.
00:34My makeup can take anywhere from like an hour to like, I hate to say this, but like four hours.
00:42My name is Shiloh.
00:43I am 18 years old.
00:45I'm from California and my pronouns are he, they.
00:50Every day that I go out, this is my look.
00:52I try to change up the eyeliner as much as possible.
00:56Most of my clothes are just DIY and then like thrifting.
01:00Now we're doing a bat's nest in my hair.
01:03And the goal of the bat's nest is to make it livable for a bat or a crow or an army of spiders.
01:11Most people have techniques for teasing their hair.
01:14I don't.
01:16I just tease it and make it look crazy.
01:18I would describe my style as very late 70s punk, very 80s goth.
01:24Of course, I don't care about how other people see me because I don't do it for them.
01:29When I'm all dressed up in my 70s, 80s, like goth, I feel so powerful.
01:35So like main character kind of energy.
01:40These are my pikes.
01:42My favorite piece of clothing has to be this sweater that I've been working on lately.
01:48I try to put like a little zebra design, spider web design.
01:52As for styles, I've tried a lot.
01:54I was emo for a long time, like throughout elementary and middle school.
01:59I eventually grew out of them just because I didn't feel like it was completely me.
02:04So I dressed very punk towards the end of high school.
02:09But I eventually started incorporating some 80s looks into it once I started educating myself on everything 80s.
02:16Like if I was like in a video game, this would be my character, like customizable.
02:21I don't know.
02:22Today, we are going to have a makeup artist transform me from my regular goth look to an everyday glam look.
02:30I'm very scared.
02:31I'm really excited to show my partner how I look when I'm all different.
02:36I kind of want to freak them out a little bit.
02:38I don't know what they sent me to wear, but I have some, I have some guesses.
02:45No, it's neon green.
02:48It's...
02:52Whatever it is, it's floral and neon green.
02:55And it has ruffles.
02:58It's got ruffles.
03:03It's so neon.
03:04It's so green.
03:08No.
03:10It's worse than I imagined.
03:12It's so much worse than I...
03:16No.
03:18I'm so glad this isn't a heel.
03:20The neon with the mix of the floral is crazy.
03:23I don't think I'd ever wear neon green on my own.
03:26It's almost blinding me, honestly.
03:29I think if I wore this, honestly, more people would be looking at me than if I were to wear this.
03:40Hi.
03:41Hi, Shiloh.
03:42I'm Allie.
03:43Hi, Allie.
03:44Nice to meet you.
03:45Welcome in.
03:47I'm going to give Shiloh a soft glam look today, which will be very different from their regular look.
03:58All right.
03:59Let's do this.
04:00I'm excited for the hair, the makeup, the outfit, everything to be put together, because I know it's going to be shocking.
04:09Looking beautiful.
04:11I wonder if you'll like it.
04:12If you don't, it's okay.
04:13I won't defend it, but...
04:17Okay.
04:22I saw some blonde hair go in my face, and now I feel like a Barbie.
04:27You want to look like one, too?
04:29Oh, my gosh.
04:30Yes.
04:35We're all done.
04:36Are you ready to see yourself?
04:38I think so.
04:40All right.
04:41Let's do it.
04:43Are you ready?
04:44I'm ready.
04:45Okay.
04:51My heart is pumping so fast, because I feel like I'm just looking at a random person that I've never met.
04:57The makeup looks so good.
04:58Yeah?
04:59Genuinely.
05:00It looks so good.
05:01But I look so weird.
05:03It doesn't look like me.
05:05It looks so boring.
05:07Oh, my God.
05:08No, I don't recognize myself.
05:11It's so much more form than I thought it would be.
05:14It's so much weirder.
05:16My partner loves my look, so I'm wondering if he's going to feel the same after my transformation.
05:22How do you think you'll feel seeing them in a different style?
05:25It'll be jarring, for sure.
05:27I've tried to come up with pictures in my head, and I can't.
05:30A style that would be scary for me to see, or just different for me to see Cheyenne,
05:36would be, I'd say, like, Normie.
05:51Oh, that's not okay.
05:54Ta-da!
06:00It doesn't feel like you at all.
06:03It doesn't feel like you at all.
06:05I don't recognize you.
06:07I feel like I should call you darling and honey from now on.
06:12You love it?
06:13You love it so much, huh?
06:15I didn't know what they were going to do to you, but they did something to you.
06:20You like the dress?
06:21The dress?
06:22It's great.
06:23I love the flow.
06:24The flow is...
06:27He's lying.
06:28He's just lying to you.
06:31You looked into that camera and you lied.
06:33You do a spin for me?
06:37It's definitely...
06:38Turn around.
06:39I need to see you from the back.
06:41If I was behind you in the store, there's no way I would even know I've met you in my life before.
06:46I mean, you still look good, but you're still shy.
06:52I love you.
06:53You like it?
06:56I think I would wear the wig again.
06:58I don't know about the outfit itself or the makeup style,
07:02but the wig I would definitely wear again if I could pair it with a really dramatic goth look.
07:08The dress feels wrong.
07:16Shy took on a whole different character with this outfit.
07:19The shy was someone off of a Disney show.
07:22If I saw me, I'd be pretty afraid of myself.
07:26I think this experience has taught me that my family is going to love me no matter what,
07:32but they love me the best when I feel the best.
07:56I love you.
07:57I love you too.
