Having little fights and arguments with your parents is a normal part of being a teenager.
Maybe some of the most standard topics are about dating, curfew and school grades. For some kids though, the way they dress and choose to present themselves can also be a point of contention. One vlogger named Eugenia Cooney is well-known for her “emo” style of dress, with an emphasis on dark colors and dramatic make-up—and her mom isn’t a huge fan. She made a video turning her mom emo, she told viewers that if it got enough likes that her mom could give her a style makeover too.
Sure enough, the video did well and mom finally got the chance to take her revenge.
As the clip starts, the mom explains that she’s going to turn her daughter preppy.
When it starts, the mom can barely contain her joy—she even begins by singing! Mom takes things step by step. First, she removes Cooney’s gloves and replaces is it with dainty jewelry. Next, she gives her a new outfit of jeans, a trendy jacket and some loafers. She even comes back with a Dolce and Gabbana bag as well.
But mom doesn’t stop there.
After that, mom gets to work on the hair.
First, she gives her daughter a middle part and a headband to hold some of her hair back. After that, it’s off with all the heavy make-up and on with a more natural look. After everything, the look is complete.
After much ado, Cooney is fully transformed into a prep—and mom couldn’t be happier.
For those who feel this is invasive, the mom deserves a lot of credit for doing this transformation herself.
Although the mom jokingly expresses throughout the video that she prefers her daughter in a more traditional look, she still gives her the full room to express herself. After making her mom go through an entire change herself, it only seems fair that mom gets to do it in return. And to be fair, Cooney’s mom still works in some of the darker colors that her daughter is used to.
After all is said and done, Cooney asks the audience: which look do they prefer?
This transformation video has spread around the internet and it’s not hard to see why.
The video clearly shows a level of respect and love between this mother and daughter that shines through despite the jokes. Beyond that, everybody likes to imagine what they would be like if they were a different person.
For those that enjoyed this video, be sure to watch Cooney’s mom undergo her own emo transformation too!
