Has anyone had a complete change of image?

Just interested in hearing about others experience of this - I'm now in my mid 40's and thinking of a complete change. After a lifetime of sensible conservative styles, worrying what people think (style wise and general people pleasing!) I am thinking of a complete change of style, perhaps getting a change of hair colour, tattoos and generally dressing for myself and caring less about what others think! Has anyone had a complete image change? If yes did you change gradually or just change your wardrobe/hair/make up etc overnight? And what was the reaction from those around you?

And maybe 8 tattoos too 😁😁 @Somethingsnapped

Don’t be afraid to have a go. Some of the changes will be successful, some not so. If you’re a jeans and a sweatshirt person up to now, it will feel strange wearing a dress, for example, and you may feel self conscious or overdressed, but be that person other people envy for looking polished/sorted/confident etc in what they wear.
