75 Makeup Fails That Are Borderline Scary

Not every application of makeup can be perfect. Sometimes, it doesn’t matter and it’s still good enough. Sometimes, it’s probably worth taking the time to wipe it all off and start over.
We found 75 times when someone absolutely should have started over. However, if they did, then we wouldn’t have anything to give us a little fright.
Here are 75 times makeup was accidentally just about good enough for Halloween:
#1 Not as advertised
She went to a makeup artist to get that perfect look. She now has a perfect look for a scary clown movie.

#2 The lashes
Those lashes are giving us nightmares. Are they going to come alive?

#3 Wedding glam
They say wedding glam. We say the bride of Frankenstein.

#4 Road rash contour
You know your contour is a little too red when people start asking if you have a sunburn or worse. What was she thinking?

#5 Just wrong
The eye makeup is unique. The lips, on the other hand, look the exact shade and texture of deli meat. They’re hard to move past.

#6 Glowing
We can all use a little shine. However, when it reaches an android level, you’ve gone too far.

#7 That mortuary look
It’s no easy job to make the dead look alive. However, the same makeup on the living can go a little haywire.

#8 So heavy
This makeup was so heavy that she had to hold it on with her hands. Or that’s what it looks like anyway.

#9 The villain
She tried a Disney villain look. It came out like a villainous clown. At least she knows it was a mistake. We worry more for the ones who don’t realize it.

#10 Not a match
Not all foundation is a perfect match. This one isn’t even in the right realm. It’s like that’s not her head…or not her body. We’re not sure which is scarier.

#11 Even the cats
Yep. This is how we feel about that last picture. You know you do too.

#12 Just in case you needed more
So you were thinking, “Hey, that last color mismatch wasn’t that bad.” We have a remedy for that…

#13 The mummy
She has a nice face. Why did she need to turn herself into something from under the pyramids?

#14 Keeping caterpillars
The foundation is a bad match. However, it’s the eyebrows that we can’t stop looking at.

#15 How it happened
If we had to imagine how most of the makeup we’ve seen so far happened, it would go something like this. So much foundation!

#16 Blinding
There is shiny. Then there is so shiny that you cause traffic accidents.

#17 The process
Do you trust the process? We have serious doubts.

#18 Orange
She’s ready for Halloween. This is pumpkin makeup, right?

#19 “What is blending?”
This is not a makeup tutorial in progress. This is the finished look. Really.

#20 Professional
This photo was found under the heading of “professional” makeup. Some might disagree.

#21 Going “a shade” lighter
This is her choice in foundation. She’s an influencer. Life is not going to get better for anyone.

#22 The makeup artist
This was done by a makeup artist. We have an growing sense of dread growing when it comes to the words “makeup” and “artist.”

#23 More professional work
Have you ever wanted to pay to have the perfect makeup done by a professional? Just give up all hope now and save your money.

#24 How?
How are those lips possible? Seriously. We want to know.

#25 Abstract art
Those are some of the straightest lines and geometric shapes we have ever seen on a face. That’s actually some kind of skill.

#26 Well
It’s not a great sign when your makeup is the same color as a troll doll. It is unique, at least.

#27 Jaundice
Is jaundice coming back in style so soon? We aren’t prepared yet!

#28 Clowning around
Creative is good. Sometimes, it goes a little too far in the direction of the circus.

#29 The foundation
No, that foundation does not match her complexion. Just look at her neck. The person who gave her advice might need to reevaluate a few things.

#30 Just keep looking
The more you look, the more you see. There are so many things that are wrong here.

#31 The power
She looked much nicer before the makeup. Turn that power down a few notches.

#32 The shade
We cannot say it enough. Match your foundation to your skin tone!

#33 Legit anxiety
She may have been going for the bee stung look. Even her eye makeup went full bee.

#34 Killing the dream
Her “before” eyebrows are in the dreams of many. Then she crushed those dreams with a palette of makeup.

#35 The mud mask look
Some have pointed out that the foundation looks like mud. Others have compared the look to a corpse. This makeup just didn’t go over well.

#36 “Subtle”
She uses the word “subtle” to describe this. How is any of this subtle?

#37 The lips
There is something just wrong with that use of gloss. It could make you shiver.

#38 Too tuned
there is so much Facetune going on that we can’t even tell what she might have looked like. Is she real or just a figment of a pixel world?

#39 The long brow to nowhere
Those brows don’t stop. Ever.

#40 “Soft and subtle”
Lies! We can’t handle the lies anymore! Where has honesty gone in this world?

#41 Coins
Remember when coins were placed over the eyes of the dead? Now you do.

#42 Facetune fail
We all want to change our look a little. However, there is such a thing as going too far.

#43 The brows
The eyeshadow actually has a nice frosty look to it. But why did she extend it into the eyebrows?

#44 Just no
Some things should not be done with lip gloss and liner. This is one of those things.

#45 She tried
It can be hard going a new route. Sometimes, you just have to admit that it was the wrong path.

#46 Bratz doll
Have you ever dreamed of being a Bratz doll? Here is your opportunity.

#47 Picture perfect
This is picture-perfect. Perfect for making us jump!

#48 Contouring on steroids
She was showing off her contouring skills. She wins.

#49 Painting it on
She went with industrial levels of caking it on. That might explain what appears to be an actual paintbrush.

#50 The doll look
At some point, this went beyond makeup. The Botox isn’t helping any.

#51 Orange? Yellow?
Maybe she’s just a ray of sunshine. She needs a foundation that matches better, though.

#52 When you match the wall
Her foundation doesn’t match her skin. It does, however, blend nicely with the wall.

#53 Too far
There’s a time and a place for adding a little makeup to your chest. There’s also an amount. This is far beyond that amount.

#54 Serious orange
If you must have an autumn shade that doesn’t match your complexion, it may as well be pumpkin orange.

#55 Different shades
The face looks okay. The body looks burnt. Put them together, and all you create is confusion.

#56 She’s glowing
Maybe it will look right shining out in a dark club. In the light, it’s a little terrifying.

#57 Beefy lips
The eye makeup is kind of amazing. Quit ruining these things with beefy lips!

#58 A permanent reminder
This color match was spotted on SVU. There will always be recordings to remind her.

#59 That line
She wanted to look sun-kissed. Now, she looks like someone transplanted her head.

#60 The sadness
There is nothing worse than being out there with bad makeup and knowing it’s bad. We feel her pain.

#61 Crying chemicals
Those neon tears just bring it all into focus. Unfortunately, it should not have been brought into focus.

#62 Inside the line
Where is her lipstick? How can you use lipliner without lipstick? Does not compute!

#63 A lot going on
She wanted to accentuate her eyebrows. We agree; they are now very hard to miss.

#64 Going gold
Why match your skin tone? You can become a gold statue instead.

#65 The freckles
There are freckles, and then there are fake freckles. These are the latter.

#66 Cannot be unseen
Once you look at those eyebrows, you will never be able to look at anything else without still seeing them. Eyebrows, eyebrows everywhere!

#67 The stains
Yeah, the makeup could be a whole lot better. But look at her collar. That is never coming out completely.

#68 The match
We know where he stopped adding foundation. At least pics will look good from the front.

#69 The table
The makeup is okay. Maybe that’s why she’s putting up with being used as somewhere to leave the glitter.

#70 Over lining
Just stop. Now. Please!

#71 Thrown on
Sometimes, we call makeup “plastered on.” In this case, we genuinely mean it.

#72 A different shade
Her face doesn’t quite match the skin on her arm. It’s not even close. It’s almost like it belongs to someone else, and she’s borrowing it.

#73 That neck
At least she brought the dark foundation lower. We’re just not sure this was how it was supposed to end.

#74 Damaging contour
That cheek looks damaged. Did it hit the steering wheel, or is it contour? Ouch!

#75 Totally natural
They used the word natural. We wouldn’t even dare to.

35+ Hilarious Relationship Things That You Should Send To Your Significant Other Right Now

Couples can make the rest of us roll our eyes.
From their gooey-eyed looks at each other, to being forced to listen to the story of how they met for the fifth time, people in love just have to show it off.
If you’re that couple, you might recognize some of these moments, even if you don’t always find them the cutest parts of being in a relationship.
Here are some of the more wholesome moments you’ve likely shared with our partners:
1. You’re each other’s cheerleaders
Being in a relationship means you have a built-in cheerleader for when you do anything remotely impressive.

2. You suck it up and accept that you’re in love, even when you’re mad
Being a little annoyed doesn’t mean you’re going to withhold your affection completely.

3. You feel a little overprotective of your partner
Sometimes friends don’t understand that you’ve already picked your person and so you overreact a little when they remind you there are plenty of other people out there in case you want to jump back into the dating pool.

4. Love can make you feel all melty
Sometimes you catch yourself looking at your partner just because.

5. Date nights start to look a lot different
Netflix and chill is a perfectly acceptable date night.

6. You love having your partner right there, all the time
Couples don’t always feel this way at the same time, but it’s ok. There are worse things in the world than trying to sleep while someone just wants to remind you how much they love you.

7. You understand that food is a necessary componenent of happiness
Ya gotta eat, even when you’re mad. A hangry partner is not a happy partner.

8. You start to look like the other person
Just take a deep breath before you launch into the matching track suits part of your relationship. Your friends are never going to let you forget it.

9. You tell everyone the story of how you met
You get two times to tell the story while the other person looks on like a lovesick puppy, then pack it in.

10. Expensive doesn’t necessarily equal romantic
It’s the thought that counts and not every date night needs to drain the bank account.

11. You get a little possessive
Love can do some weird things to our brains. As long as you keep it respectful towards your partner, admitting that you can still get jealous can make them realize just how stong your bond is.

12. You get that warm tingly feeling
That’s why they say loves makes you glow.

13. Food is love
When you know you found the one because they not only want you to have the large fries, but know it’s a good way to keep you from eating all of theirs and causing a fight.

14. You don’t always need to be made up to be beautiful to them
That doesn’t mean you should just give up, but it’s nice to get to that moment when you don’t need to hide until you’re hair or makeup is done so they only see you at your best.

15. You don’t worry about cheating
Your significant other can go out for a night with friends or appreciate someone else’s beauty and you have the confidence to know that that’s all it is.

16. You accept one of you is a bed hog
Lots of couples still disagree on who it is, but most of the time this can just be solved with an extra backup blanket and a little nudge. Pets are another story.

17. You give in and buy stuff you don’t need
Sometimes your other half just finds something they really have to have and you should just be glad it’s not a whole box of puppies.

18. You catch each other up on important pieces of pop culture
That feeling of being shocked and then overjoyed that you are going to get to introduce them to a song or movie that you love. Just don’t talk through it or demand that they love it. And if you’re the one being introduced to something new, you work up at least a little bit of enthusiasm.

19. You try to look adorable before asking for things
Just never let it get to the point where you’re shouting requests at each other.

20. You try your best on things that aren’t your strong suit
Again, it’s the thought that counts, and doing something nice for your sweetie, even if it doesn’t turn out perfectly, can turn into a great moment – as long as you both keep a sense of humor.

21. You have a favorite food
And that food plays an integral role in your relationship.

22. One of you tells cheesy jokes and the other one puts up with them
Just start making Valentine’s Day cards out of them and they’ll serve a purpose other than to make you pretend to laugh.

23. You’re ok being away from each other
Everybody needs some space. When you’re significant other is away, you can handle youself, even if you really miss them.

24. You want to kiss them every time you see them
It’s cute as long as they don’t mind that you see their face as a kiss magnet.

25. You put up with it all
When you’re around someone a lot, you’re bound to get annoying (or annoyed). Just take it in stride.

26. You find love cartoons for 6-year-olds funny
This one definitely doesn’t require being in a relationship.

27. You still get butterflies when you look at them
It’s always amazing when couple who have been together a long time still get that feeling when they see each other. Now that’s a good life goal.

28. You put up with each other’s singing
It might hurt your ears, but it warms your heart.

29. You don’t want to let them leave without a goodbye kiss
Sometimes it feels like bad luck to let them go without a kiss and an “I love you.”


30. You can picture being the same couple in 50 years
Growing old together requires a lot of patience, but if you’re really in love, you know you can make it work.

31. You don’t withold respect
You might be annoyed or mad, but that doesn’t mean you let your loved one walk in the rain.

32. You tear up when you remember how lucky you are to have found your person
Love can overwhelm you in the best ways.

33. You’re proud of how long you’ve been together
Not everyone can make it work. There’s nothing wrong with being proud if you did.

34. You work around them
If you can stay in love afer an airport delay, you’ve definitely got a good thing going.

35. You always remember birthdays
You don’t need a Facebook reminder to remember their special day. Extra points for remembering the week before so you can ask if there’s a special way they want to celebrate.

36. You’ve got wedding goals
Ok, goals and expectations are two separate things, but if your relationship has gotten this far and is healthy, you know the emotion will be there.

37. You are committed to being adorable forever
Because if you got it (a great relationship, that is), then flaunt it.

50+ Tips And Tricks Revealed By Makeup Artists

New year, new you! Maybe one of your resolutions this year is to get more enthusiastic about applying your makeup every morning or to try a new eyeshadow shade, or maybe you are just looking for new ways to get the best bang for your buck.
We did the research for you and found a bunch of makeup hacks revealed by actual makeup artists themselves. Hopefully one of these tips will come in handy!

1.) Use the right foundation for your skin type
Use a water-based foundation if you have oily skin. Use an oil-based foundation if you have dry skin. Everyone is different.

2.) You don’t need a lip liner with your liquid matte lipstick
And if anyone tells you that you do, they are a liar. Almost all liquid lipsticks do just fine on their own.

3.) Let your eyelid primer dry before adding eyeshadow
And after the primer dries, coat them with a light, neutral color all over your lid. This will act as a base and will make it easier to blend colors together. If you want a dark color, slowly build it – first with light colors, and then darker. Don’t just go straight from light to dark.

4.) Save your mascara brush
Fun fact: most of the mascara magic actually comes from the brush. So if you found one that really works for you, save the brush when you’re done, clean it, and try using it with a cheaper bottle! It’s really not necessary to spend big bucks on this.

5.) Make your matte, full-coverage concealer look more natural with primer oil or coconut oil
Use just a drop of the oil of your choice and it will make your heavy concealer more radiant, easy to blend, and natural. It also helps with creasing!

6.) Use hairspray to tame full eyebrows
First, spray hairspray on a clean, disposable mascara wand. Then brush your brows up and into the shape you’re going for. If it makes the hair on our head stay in place, it definitely works for the hair on our face!

7.) Wet your brush before applying highlighter
It will instantly give it a little more glow.

8.) Don’t apply primer with your fingers
It can cause micro-exfoliation, which causes clumps.

9.) Use a matte bronzer to make your eyes look bigger
If you’re doing a full face of makeup but want to keep your eyes bare, put a little bit of matte bronzer in your lid crease and bottom lashline. That way, they will still be bare, but they will also appear bigger.

10.) Never use face soap with sodium laureth sulfate
Makeup artists swear that it dries out your skin.

11.) Stick to matte eyeshadows and powders if you have fine lines on and around your eyelids
Using something shimmery usually accentuates those lines.

12.) Always do your eye makeup before your foundation
That way, you will have an easier time cleaning up any fallout from your eyeshadow.

13.) Always exfoliate and prime your lips with a serum
Especially when using a liquid matte lipstick. Cracked lips will show!

14.) Use scotch tape for the perfect eyeliner wing
Angle it from your eye to your eyebrow for the crispest, cleanest eyeliner wing you’ll ever see. Boom, magic.

15.) Use eyeshadow primer on the lash line
Then sweep eyeshadow on top with a fine liner brush to create a smudge-proof eyeliner. Now if you’re out of eyeliner, you can use your shadows for the same effect!

16.) You can also use a cotton pad
If you use cotton pads to apply your face makeup, use those same pads for your eyeliner! Simply fold it in half and use the straight side to line up with your eye for the perfect sweep. No tape needed.

17.) If you accidentally get mascara around your eyes, let it dry
Wait 5 minutes or so and then swipe it away with a Q-tip. At that point, it should flake off and not smudge.

18.) Never share makeup brushes
It’s super unsanitary.

19.) Tarte’s Timeless Smoothing Primeris an absolute must
It’s soft and it doesn’t clog pores. What more could you want?

20.) Imagine a line from the outer corner of your eye to the tip of your brow. This is where your eyeshadow should stop.
A lot of times, people make the mistake of not bringing out their eyeshadow far enough. This can actually make the eyebrow look smaller.

21.) If you’re just starting out and want to learn how to contour, put the contour color on a brush or sponge first
It will be harder to blend if you draw it on directly like lines.

22.) Don’t sleep in your makeup
“Skin needs time to breathe and when you’re sleeping, your body is repairing the most. Sleeping in makeup is not only messy, but it causes breakouts, premature aging, and stained bedding. Take care of your skin, loves!”

23.) Don’t recreate the celebrities
“Those looks are made for them, their skin type, skin tone, and face shape. People always come into my shop and request to look like Kim Kardashian and I have to explain to them that it might not work on them and sometimes they even get upset when it doesn’t turn out. Yes, I can do it, but it won’t look good on you. Instead ask for something dramatic like Kim Kardashian or whatever you want but do not ask to look like them!”

24.) Invest in good skin care products
“Your makeup, no matter how much you paid for it, will not look its best when it’s added on top of dry, scaly, splotchy, oily and just plain unhappy skin. Want to get makeup optional skin? INVEST in skin care.”

25.) Don’t start from the top lash line if you’re doing winged eyeliner, use the bottom lash line for a smoother, straighter line
And look at the wing you drew first while drawing your second one.

26.) Never store your makeup in a bathroom cabinet
The humidity can cause it to alter and go bad before its time, plus toilet germs.

27.) Blend your foundation out onto your neck
“When wearing foundation please blend it out. Put product on your jawline, and blend it out into your neck. Also blend the foundation along the edges of your face out. It’ll help create a natural look and make it less obvious you’re wearing foundation, plus it will visually improve your color match.”

28.) Don’t use stark white concealer under your eyes
“Use an under-eye concealer one shade lighter than your face concealer, not two or three shades. It will give you a naturally bright effect instead of a contrasting white effect, which looks super unnatural.”

29.) Apply setting powder with a damp beauty blender or brush
This does wonders for people with dry or textured skin and gives a smooth, airbrushed finish.

30.) The same foundation that works for you in the summer might not work for you in the winter
For example, I use a more moisturizing foundation in the winter (Too Faced Born This Way) and prefer a more matte coverage in the summer (Hourglass Stick Foundation).

31.) For eyeshadow, tap the excess eyeshadow off the brush
Also hold the brush farther from the handle for more control.

32.) Blend your foundation into your hairline and make sure to contour that too
Everyone knows to drag their makeup down their neck a little bit, but too often I see people with a line between their makeup and hair. Not a good look!

33.) Stop blowing on your makeup brushes
“I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen people do this and it makes me cringe. Brushes already harbor bacteria if not cleaned and taken care of properly; you blowing on your brushes and getting saliva particles all over it isn’t helping considering you’re applying it directly to your face therefore causing breakouts, clogged pores, etc. If you’ve picked up too much product, just tap it off or give your brush a little shake.”

34.) Use a foundation one shade darker on the outer edge of your face to add depth

35.) If your skin is very oily, apply a light layer of powder after you apply your primer and before you apply your foundation
It’ll give you a smoother look. Also, baby powder works great for baking your face. I use it for everything!

36.) Glowing cheeks that look natural
“”Add your favorite blush to the cheeks before you apply foundation for a glow that looks like it’s coming from beneath the skin. A bright, warm pink at the apple is perfect for any complexion.”
– James Vincent, celebrity makeup artist and director of artistry for Ardency Inn

37.) Multi-colors on the cheeks is important
“Apply two shades of blush for the perfect flush of youth. Pink, or anything in the red family should be placed on the apple of the cheek; it will give the effect of blood coming to the surface. Peach, coral, or anything in the orange family should be applied to the highest point of the cheekbone; that gives the effect of heat rising. Finish by bringing a matte bronzer to the skin where sun hits the face (forehead, cheekbone, bridge of nose, and chin).”
– James Vincent, celebrity makeup artist and director of artistry for Ardency Inn

38.) Lighten your coverage
“Mixing foundation with moisturizer is an easy way to lighten your coverage options if you already have a fuller coverage foundation.”
– Caitlin Wooters, makeup artist

39.) Make sure those lashes get coated
“Use the handle of a brush to lift the eyelid at the base of the lashes to roll your lashes up and back; this allows you to wiggle the mascara wand against the base of the lashes and pull through any clumps in a clean and precise manner.”
– Kara Yoshimoto Bua, Chanel celebrity makeup artist

40.) Don’t be afraid of red
“If you want to find the perfect red for your complexion, try applying one lip color that has the same undertone as your complexion all over the lip: Cool uses cool, warm uses warm. Apply a red with the opposite tone just to the center for a lip that looks full and fantastic.”
– James Vincent, celebrity makeup artist and director of artistry for Ardency Inn

41.) Reach for the school supplies
“No. 2 pencils are the perfect graphite shade to sketch in natural eyebrow hairs. Sharpen one to a point and draw in lightly for a finished brow.”
– James Vincent, celebrity makeup artist and director of artistry for Ardency Inn

42.) Thicken up watery foundation
“To make foundation thicker, mix in a touch of loose powder. (Be careful not to add too much or it will cake.)”
– Cecilia Muench, creative director of Inglot

43.) Chill out and reduce puff
“To reduce puffiness, pop eye lotion in the icebox and apply to lids before eye makeup.”
– Petra Strand, creator of Pixi by Petra

44.) Find the right lip shade
“Test lipstick on the inside of your fingertip, rather than on the back of your hand. The pad of your finger closely resembles your own lip color, so see which one looks best there, then move to the lips.”
– Kerry Cole,style director of Becca Cosmetics

45.) The power of gold
“Gold powder pigment is a great way to lengthen lashes or brows. Use a clean spoolie brush, toothbrush, or mascara wand, and brush a bronze or yellow gold pigment through a mascared lash or brow for a beautiful effect that adds dimension without looking hard.”
– James Vincent, celebrity makeup artist and director of artistry for Ardency Inn

46.) Who knew?
“Halloween is the perfect time to stock up on some unexpected essentials. Fake blood is the ideal blush shade. Add it to the apple of the cheek for any skin tone—it looks like a natural flush of color coming though the skin.”
– James Vincent, celebrity makeup artist and director of artistry for Ardency Inn

47.) You better stock up on your next visit!
“Starbucks napkins and disposable toilet-seat covers work just as well as blotting papers.”
– Kerry Cole, style director of Becca Cosmetics

48.) If it works, it works!
“As a little girl, I would watch my mother apply egg whites to her face (especially around her eyes) about an hour or two before going out to a special event. She would take one egg, separate it, whisk it until it was frothy, and apply the egg white all over her face and leave it on for 20 minutes. After, she would wash it off with lukewarm water and immediately apply her makeup. The egg white tightens the skin and wrinkles to give you a temporary facelift.”
– Niki Metz, director of artistry for Jouer

49.) Who doesn’t want to look younger?
“My favorite ‘look younger’ makeup tip is to first use a luminizer in the inner corner, then swoop it with a fan brush underneath the eye. This brightens the face.”
– Deanna Melluso, celebrity makeup artist

50.) Pucker that pout
“Use a flesh-toned eyeliner to outline the lips along the Cupid’s bow. This reduces the chance of feathering and makes lips appear fuller.”
– Petra Strand, creator of Pixi by Petra

51.) Better safe than sorry
“If you can’t find a perfect shade, buy one that’s slightly darker than your skin and one that’s slightly lighter, then fine-tune the color yourself.”

52.) Strange but effective
“Pull your bottom lip down and look at the inside color. Pick a lipstick shade that’s either lighter or a bit deeper but along the same tone as the inside of your lip. Oh, and don’t do this in public.”
– Maggie Ford Danielson, Benefit global beauty authority

53.) Buff, buff, buff!
“Buff, buff, buff foundation into the skin — quickly, like a whirlwind — with a brush. It ensures the coverage won’t look heavy-handed.”

54.) Instant lip lift
“Apply concealer to the outer corners of your lips to give your lips a lift.”
– Niki Metz, director of artistry for Jouer

55.) Fuller brows while you sleep
“Apply a nourishing balm to your eyebrows before going to bed. This will guarantee extra strength and growth—thicker eyebrows in two weeks.”
– Terry de Gunzburg, founder of By Terry

“What A Dreamboat!” Makeover Transforms Shy Teen After Dramatic Weight Loss

Christopher Hopkins, aka “The Makeover Guy” is known for transforming men and women over 40 into the best selves. But in 2019, he took on the task of a teenager.
Little did he know that Phoenix’s makeover would be one of his most powerful.
Teenage trauma
Phoenix found himself in Hopkin’s Minneapolis “appearance studio” after a big weight loss. The previous school year, he weighed in and 250 pounds.

His transformation wasn’t easy.
He managed to lose 100 pounds by counting his macronutrients (think of it as going a step farther than calorie-counting) and working out every day with a personal trainer

That’s a big commitment for a teenager!
But Phoenix is dedicated and fearless. Hence his desire to put his head in the hands of Hopkins for a whole new style.
He’s already a handsome young man (with hair most people covet), but he decided it was time for a change. And if you’ve seen The Makeover Guy’s popular videos, you know his studio is the place to go.
The big chop
It seems pretty obvious that Phoenix is going to end up with a major haircut. After all, why waste your time going to a makeover guru if you’re not going to let him go crazy with the scissors?

And that’s precisely what Hopkins does. Gone is the shoulder-length wavy hair of the “before” Pheoenix. But is he happy?

There’s a big smile on the teen’s face as he runs his hands through his glossy mane. He’s still got hair to die for!
It’s long on top and makes the perfect wave in front. The only problem is that it’s a little too neat for the teen.
We cringed a little when he messed with perfection, but it’s his hair, not ours after all! And the modelesque look just wasn’t entirely jibing with him.
After getting a tousel from Hopkins, things end up in largely the same place, just not so catalog-model-ready. And it still looks great!
Personal style is just that – personal – so Phoenix has to be able to pull off whatever hairstyle he walks out the door with. And we were really impressed with him for speaking up.

A good day
“I had fun today,” Phoenix says after getting a little ribbing from Hopkins.
He admits that he’s normally shy in front of people and we believe it since when he first walked in he seemed less outgoing. But after agreeing to trust his stylist and seeing the results of the makeover, he lives up to his name. Phoenix is reborn!

After one more tweak by Hopkins, the transformation is complete.
It’s a cute moment when the teen keeps messing with his hair only to have Hopkins walk by and “fix” it one more time.

Commenters were over the moon about Phoenix’s makeover.
