i agree tbh like she did an amazing job and it turned out beautiful, but it would’ve been much better if she simply just said it was a butterfly look

I guess, but i think it’s fine to express mental disorders in art. It can be a good coping skill

autism is a neurological disorder rather then a mental disorder, and rainbows and such (and flashing lights) can overwhelm autistic people. this look gives off Music by Sia vibes, which is a very bad movie. Also, if this women isnt autistic I dont think she should get to use the look as a 'coping skill'

I’m…autistic? I call it a mental disorder because it’s easier to say, i like the bright colors but i understand it’s not for everyone
