First we made our way towards the black tent. Not sure if we were drawn there by music playing loudly, or by the people walking out from there. Their looks were pretty eccentric: they had their hair dyed in rainbow colors and their lips were black. It looked unusual. It turned out that the credit should be given to the stylists as they worked for free to create hairstyles, temporary tattoos and makeup. Transformation took an hour and a half. I have never had so much make-up on my face: several layers of make-up foundation, eye shadows, mascara, powder ... And lacquer.
I guess a liter of it was needed to create my hairstyle. When I left the tent, the people who had travelled to this event by bus with me, did not immediately recognize me. But the magic transformation was appreciated, and I felt like Cinderella. With the only exception that my fairy-godmother was a stylist, and instead of a ball gown I was wearing torn shorts, a T-shirt and some outstanding make-up.
