Cyber Goth is the complete opposite of other Gothic styles that focus on the past. They look to a future that includes ultraviolet light, progressive fashion, huge boots, unusual hair extensions, glasses, cybernetics, body modifications. This phenomenon can be called the Gothic of the future and the present. There are no rules. There are only two types of goths, but we pay attention to a specific, unique type. Keep in mind that becoming a cyber-goth is not easy, and it can take a lot of money and effort to research the subject. Cyber Gothic is a complex style, but if done right, it can look incredible and unique. This is a relatively new style that has not been studied well enough, but has recently become more and more popular. Good luck with this style, and enjoy the fact that you are now the envy of everyone else ready!

Steps

1 Despite the fact that the majority of Cyber Goths are women, this style is versatile. Don't think that if you are a man you cannot become a cyber goth. You also don't have to be white. cyber gothic is multi-ethnic style, so you can find both dark-skinned cyber-goths and representatives from Spain and Japan.
2 It is necessary to clearly understand the difference between cyber-goths and ravers. In Europe and Japan, cyber goths tend to lean towards ravers and tend to dress quite provocatively. In America and Australia, cyber-goths tend to lean more towards the military theme known as the "Rivethead". Note: you do not have to dress in a certain way in a certain country. If you like the dark side of cyber-gothic but live in Japan, then that's okay. For example, in America and Australia there are many people who dress like Japanese Cyber Goths.
3 Start with your makeup. You don't have to do what you don’t want to do or what you don’t like, because there are no rules. Also, you have to be yourself. Basically, Cyber Goth makeup is quite complex.and the colors used match the whole look. To avoid embarrassing moments, you should practice applying makeup well before showing up in public.
4 Use a foundation a few shades lighter than your skin. The Manic Panic brand produces the foundation tone used by Marilyn Manson. Do not use the lightest tone right away. Become pale gradually.
5 Choose for yourself lipsticks of unusual colors. Whether it's black, blue, or even pink, just choose what works for you.
6 The eyeliner works great. You can apply it if you like. Some Goths paint their eyes very brightly. You can also use black shadows, however Cyber Goths often use bright neon shadows combined with eyeliner and bright false eyelashes (as for women). It doesn't matter which one you choose.
7 Sometimes female cyber-goths shave off their eyebrows and draw new ones. This allows them to successfully combine eyebrow shape with eye makeup. Cyber Goth makeup sometimes resembles drag queen makeup.
8 In Europe, some women glue rhinestones around their eyes. This can often be found in Sweden, Finland or Japan.
9 Cyber Goth hair is incredible. Either it is natural, but dyed hair, or, more often, wigs or hair extensions, braided in pigtails, reminiscent of dreadlocks. Dreadlocks can be made from artificial hair, thick plastic bands, yarns, and more exotic materials such as computer cables, foam strips, and tubular krin (known as Cyber lox). Since the cyber-goth style is directed towards artificial or overly bright attributes of the appearance, materials that clearly do not look like real hair are welcome.Dreadlocks made from artificial materials can be made in many styles, such as, for example, lollipop-like curls (two different colors intertwined and resemble candy), or transistor dreadlocks (one color fades into the other). Hair extensions are also used to create dreadlocks.
10 Search the internet for "cyberlox" if you're interested. These dreadlocks can be quite expensive, but they look very good if you choose them correctly. Try to choose thicker and richer in color, and better ultraviolet. Even if you cannot find dreadlocks that are right for your price, you can easily find cheap materials to make your own dreadlocks (foam, yarn, fake hair). When wearing them, it is worth wearing a bandage to cover your head and thereby relieve the pressure on the scalp from the weight of the dreadlocks.
11 Remember, your hair can be colored. Black is usually the base color with which all other bright colors work well. Manic Panic presents many colors of neon hair dyes. Your hair will most likely need to be bleached before dyeing. Some Goths dye their hair all the colors of the rainbow without using black dye at all. There is no need to dye your hair if you don't want to, because that's what fake dreadlocks are for. You can also wear wigs.
12 Search online for Cyber Goth clothing that can be made from latex, PVC or Lycra. The color scheme is a mix of neon, white and / or black colors that tend to go well. Clothing with reflectors and patterns is very popular. Neon stockingsthat women wear over black tights look very beautiful. Also try to find clothing with symbols indicating radioactivity or biohazard... Popular are spiked necklaces and bracelets made of PVCespecially those that glow in the dark. Try to find a gas mask made of PVC, as this is a popular accessory for some reason.
13 In England, most Cyber Goths wear colored tights and fishnets, ripped so that the colors cover each other. This feature was borrowed from Deathrock, but since the colors are bright, it is now a Cyber Goth feature.
14 Aviator glasses are incredibly popular. They are worn over the head over dreadlocks. Keep in mind that after a while, they can put a lot of pressure on your head, so the bandage will save you.
15 If you are old enough, you can visit special clubs where cyber goths host parties. Many cyber goths visit a gathering of comic or anime loversas well as annual musical festivals in Germany such as Wave Gotik Treffen and M'era Lunathat attract tourists from all over the world.
16 Boots and high platform boots are back in fashion, so you should get your own. The brands Transmuter, Swear Alternative and Demonia are the most famous brands. Shoes with faux fur are also very popular among women.
17 Body adornment through piercings and tattoos are incredibly popular among Cyber Goths. The tattoos are usually kanji (Japanese characters) or based on Japanese designs. Editorial office: a great example of conversations behind the back. If someone likes kanji, they do kanji. There is NO GENERAL RULE regarding the type of tattoos for Cyber Goths. Please do not feel that you are being forced to dye / cut your hair as it is not necessary.
18 Music is electronic. It mainly covers electronic genres such as industrial music, contemporary pop music, club and dance music (trance and hard), as well as other electronic genres such as drum and bass and synth-pop.It is recommended not to get carried away with this style unless you know at least a few of the most popular cyber-goth groups such as VNV Nation and Icon Of Coil, otherwise you will be considered a poser. Cyber Goth music encompasses a range of genres: industrial, electronic, synth-pop, techno, just to name a few. Make sure you know the difference between them. and, yes, there is a difference. Some of them are closer to the music of the Rammstein group, while others are closer to club music.
