How Fast We Go From Nonchalant to Freaky

About

How Fast We Go From Nonchalant to Freaky is a catchphrase that's integral to a 2024 TikTok trend in which TikTokers use the "Handsome" Snapchat filter and the Striking Face TikTok Filter to show a transition from being "nonchalant" (akin to the Nonchalant Dreadhead and I Became Very Nonchalant memes) to being "freaky" (akin to the 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 meme). When being "nonchalant," the people in the video do casual and cool movements. When being "freaky," they do comedically sexual movements. The trend started and evolved in August 2024.
