My character, Mary is described as both a chav and alternative. I’ve interpreted this as she’s someone who’s more alternative but still cares a lot about fitting in so still styles herself more like a chav but with more alternative elements.
I’ve talked with my actor, Aamna, and we’ve decided that Mary is going to be emo so the way I’m planning on combining that with typical chav makeup is making the makeup more toned down emo, with messy eyebrows instead of the typical block brows of chav makeup, smudging the eyeliner, making her slightly paler, and straightening her hair.
