TATTED Katt, 22, from Las Vegas describes her look as a 'Futuristic CyberPunk' and she's always seen herself as 'eccentric' and 'out of the box'. Despite coming from a small, rural, conservative town in Kansas, 'Tatted Katt' always stood out from the crowd; but it was in highschool when she really found her unique style. She told Transformed: "At around junior year of highschool I just stopped caring what people thought of me and broke out of the box! I dyed my hair, got the piercings and started getting tattoos!" As well as her amazing 'Futuristic Cyberpunk' aesthetic, Tatted Katt has also tattooed over 74% of her body, spending between $35,000 to $40,000... An amount her mom would not be pleased with. Today, Tatted Katt, is going to do something she never thought she would... Transform from her 'Futuristic Cyberpunk' style to a 'Glam Beach Babe'. Tatted Katt will be surprising her boyfriend and two best friends with her new look - but will they recognise her without the tattoos and with her unique style ditched?

00:00I've always just been eccentric.
00:02I find it just fun and interesting.
00:03Why not be out the box?
00:05I would describe my look futuristic cyberpunk
00:09and very outrageous and colorful.
00:13Today I am turning my futuristic cyberpunk catgirl style
00:19into a basic glammed beach babe.
00:23Let's see if my friends and family can recognize me.
00:27It is very exciting, but definitely nerve-wracking.
00:31Are you ready?
00:32Three, two, one.
00:36Oh my gosh, oh, this is freaky.
00:44Ah!
00:45What?
00:46Who is she?
00:51Hi, I'm Kat, nice to meet you.
00:54Amanda.
00:56Oh my gosh, come on in.
00:58I'm so excited.
00:59Me too.
01:00I'm nervous.
01:02Hi, my name is Tatted Kat.
01:03I would consider my look futuristic cyberpunk catgirl
01:09with a pop of neon pastel.
01:11The key elements of my look are definitely the cat ears.
01:16Anything tactical or very cyberpunk-esque.
01:20I like anything strappy.
01:23As a person, I am Tatted Kat,
01:25so you have to have the neko girl.
01:28These are some of my favorites.
01:31These ones were custom and handmade.
01:33I've always just been eccentric.
01:35I find it just fun and interesting.
01:37Why not be out the box?
01:38So today we are transforming me
01:41from my cyberpunk catgirl look into a basic beach babe.
01:48Let's see if my friends, family, and boyfriend
01:50can recognize me without my tattoos.
01:53Today we're gonna be doing a beach babe look.
01:56And so it's gonna be very bronzy, very glowy.
02:00So we're gonna have to do quite a bit of color correction
02:04and then over top put on our foundation, our coverup.
02:09And because we are going for a beach babe look,
02:11I'm probably gonna add some glow on top of that.
02:14Okay, Kat, I'm ready to do your makeup.
02:17Let's do it.
02:21It is very exciting, but definitely nerve wracking.
02:24I've never had anybody else do my makeup before.
02:28Why did you choose to do this transformation?
02:30Just interesting to see myself
02:33in a form that I wouldn't normally be in.
02:37So I grew up in Kansas,
02:41which is a very interesting state if you've ever been there.
02:46I would go to middle school in six inch high heels
02:50with neon pink lipstick and big Betsy Johnson purses
02:54and like walk around with my little cat ears.
02:58About junior year, I just stopped caring.
03:01Broke out the box and dyed my hair,
03:04got the piercings, started getting tattoos.
03:08How much of your body is tattooed?
03:10I would say 75, 78% covered.
03:16I'm almost done.
03:19Almost out of space.
03:21How much money have I spent?
03:23We're looking upward of $35, $40,000.
03:27Sorry, mom.
03:31So I am using an eyeshadow palette by Patrick Ta
03:35and this is like warm colors,
03:39perfect for that beachy look.
03:40How do you think your friends and family
03:42are going to react?
03:43I definitely think my friends are going to be shocked.
03:47I hope they recognize me, but they might not.
03:51And my mom might cry.
03:55This is Huda Beauty Faux Filter Concealer
03:58and this is a good one because it dries matte
04:01and it doesn't need a set.
04:02It will sit all day without smudging.
04:06This is Dermablend and it's a full coverage body makeup.
04:11It's specifically made to cover like tattoos.
04:15Okay, you are ready.
04:17You look so good.
04:18I'm so excited for you to see this.
04:20I'm scared.
04:23Okay, are you ready?
04:24Three, two, one.
04:30What?
04:31Oh my gosh.
04:35The eyebrows.
04:37Oh my God.
04:39I don't look like myself.
04:41Whoa.
04:43Oh, this is freaky.
04:57I like the makeup.
04:58I look very tan, which I'm not used to.
05:02Like, you did a really good job.
05:04Like, the beat is slay.
05:07The eyebrows are definitely giving like,
05:10some like cartoon, like, baddie brows,
05:14which I'm here for.
05:16I dislike the whole entire outfit.
05:21This is kind of cute, like the hat.
05:23I feel like I would wear something like this,
05:26maybe if it was like black for the rest of it.
05:29Here down, no.
05:30I feel like I blend in with literally every girl.
05:35I feel like I don't like it.
05:36I think my boyfriend's gonna have a panic attack.
05:42How do you feel about Kat's normal look?
05:43Like her standard look?
05:44Very edgy, very gothic.
05:47I like it.
05:48I feel like she's got a new look every day,
05:49but it's pretty consistent,
05:51and I think she's a trendsetter.
05:52I have only seen the cyber goth edgelord that is Kat.
05:58So this will be something new for you?
05:59Yes, 100%.
06:00What are you expecting?
06:02Wow.
06:03I don't even know what to expect, to be honest,
06:05because I've seen her in all her tattoos and glory,
06:08piercings and all, multicolored hair,
06:11so whatever you guys are about to throw at us right now
06:14is about to be a total shock.
06:21Arrgh!
06:21What?
06:23Who is she?
06:24Where is she?
06:25Look at your tattoos, who is that?
06:26Oh my God, bro.
06:27Sandra?
06:28Right on.
06:29God, just like, time.
06:31Dude, who is she?
06:32You look like you could go to the beach.
06:34I know.
06:35Are we going to Malibu?
06:36Like, what's going on?
06:37Cancun, baby?
06:38Let's do it.
06:39I feel like I lost my street cred.
06:44So I love it, but I can definitely tell it's not Kat,
06:47you know?
06:48There's definitely like a sense of expression
06:51that she brings with everything she wears,
06:53and I just know this isn't that personally,
06:56but I still think she looks great.
06:57You sure this is Kat?
06:58Yeah.
07:00I do prefer her with her tattoos.
07:02I just think it's more of an embodiment of her energy.
07:05Would you date me like this?
07:06Yes.
07:07Whoa.
07:10Let me call my mom real quick.
07:11Look at you!
07:13Do I look different?
07:14Oh my God, you look beautiful.
07:17My God.
07:17Look, all my tattoos are gone.
07:22Wow.
07:23Do you prefer me with or without my tattoos?
07:28I mean, I've seen you both ways,
07:31so I know that that way makes you happy.
07:36I mean, you look gorgeous,
07:38but you look gorgeous then when you have your tattoos too.
07:41I love you, mama.
07:42I'm very excited to take this off and be myself again.
07:49I love you so much.
07:50Love you too.
07:51Bye, mom.
07:51Bye.
07:52I think everybody's reaction was pretty on point.
07:56Tyler definitely was a little baffled,
07:58and I think the boys prefer me the other way.
08:03What do you make of your new look?
08:04You know, it's cute.
08:06It's definitely fun and breaking out of my normal box.
08:10Would I do it again?
08:12Probably never, no.
08:15I'm ready to get out of this.
08:18Yes!
08:26Yes!
