below r some tips for new goths/baby bats
- you dont have to ONLY listen to goth music to be goth
- you by no means have to wear white makeup to do a goth look, you dont have to be white to be goth!
- trying to do the bats nest/80s goth hair? for the love of god use hairspray, and a LOT. tease your hair with a comb (or brush) and sprayyyy
- research! seriously read up on the community
- but also...get involved in the goth community! talk to other goths, hangout with them, get out there fr. online and irl, meet some fellow goths
- im sure most know but, you DONT have to dress up to be goth. goth is a music based subculture, all you gotta do is enjoy the music to be goth :P
- goths have certain beliefs! aside from loving some good music the goth subculture is of course a strong opinionated group. like you cannot be conservative and goth bc duh LOL.
- dont be an elitist. theres many different types of goths and just because someone isnt trad goth does not make them a fake goth. let people live, its a small life we have so dont waste it on stupid shit
