The Perfect Emo Hairstyle for the Emo Beginners
You can simply not be Emo if you do not have the right hairstyle and although the more unique is generally considered to be better, there are some guidelines that you can follow if you are a beginner to the world of Emo.
First of all, most Emo kids adopt the look of the reverse mullet. This is generally longer at the front than it is at the back and is rather difficult to do at home by yourself so perhaps it would be better to have this look professionally cut at the hairdressers? Although this reverse mullet is very popular, it is not unusual for an Emo kid to have one length hair with a lot of choppy layers chucked in for good measure and this applies to both guys and girls.
One of the most well known trademarks for the Emo look is a longer set of bangs that simply must cover one eye. This is almost considered to be a symbol of the Emo kid not wanting to see the real world and also not wanting others to get to know the real them so has more meaning than just a simple hairstyle.
Experimenting is normally a big thing for Emo kids and with regards to this, there are no limits. Spikes are great for those that have shorter hair but are trying to grow it out and again this applies to both boys and girls of an Emo following.
I agree that alot of the cuts like the reverse mullet are better left to a salon. Check livejournal for recommendations or yelp.
well im lightskinned so i got different kind of hair its long and silky but not silkier then caucasions so like i want to make it emo but i really dont know how with my kinda hair help plz…..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!o_O’

i have thick dark hair and im not caucasion and im trying to find a look that will suit a [[black]] persons face.. i need extreme help………..:’(
for all those out their with thick hair use a razor on yur hair
it may sound crazy i dint think of anything about it the first time i herd of it
but it really works, just take a razor
grab a lock of hair put on side on the razor against yur hair, and
yur thumb on the other and gently pull.
yu’ll be lossing hair yes
but its thinning it out
i hade really thick hair befor too, and ever since i did it.
it was amazing.
and ps.. no a hair salon or hair dresser isnt always the best choice..
unless its done by an emo that know’s what their doing..
or you can do like me get drunk one night come home do your hair for three houres and it turns out amazing.
emo hair can be done by pretty much anyone.
give it a try one night yu’d be surprised.

The one in the third pic is more like scene hair
The third pic- I’ve seen that guy sing and rock out- he used to be in a band from Pocatello- Death in December
I am half SPanish and I’ve got naturally curly and thick hair. If you want an “Emo” or “Scene” cut like me, I would sugget you get it cut professionall done by someone who has experiance doing more “punk” “Emo” cuts. The woman that cut my hair specialized in that specific way of cutting and she did an incredible job with my hair.
Professionaly done, they will use a razor for layers and to thin out your hair. It works wonders but I would not reccomend you doing it on your own because you could seriously screw ip your hair, unless your aiming for a look that’s completely your own.
If you do have the same type of hair as me, whatever your race might be, you need to keep in
mind that straighting your hair with a flat iron will be nessecary to mantain the perfect “Emo” cut.
Also keep in mind this WILL damaage got hair slot so use heat sprays to protect your hair while straightenig it and I would advise straightening it once to two times a week, if your hair doesn’t get
Greasy fast.
If you have medium lentgh hair you can still get the same cut and if you natrally thin hair then you wouldn’t want to thin it with a razor becasue you would a thicker look on top with layers.
It’s a great cut for any girl :]
Hope I helped<3

I have ginger curly hair :/ i friggin hate it :’( but my mum won’t let me die it…
i still dress scene/ emo but i hate it so much.. ha but less of my hair means less gingerness
How i got volume in my hair is that i use tresseme or however you spell it but in the shower i flip my hair and shampoo it and then rinse it out and then have some conditioner and then flip it again put it in and then rinse it out. Then lol you have to blow dry it but flip it again and then ur hair is big and poofy (so is ur bangs) then you straighten it only (DONT COMB OR BRUSH IT AFTER BLOW DRYING) and then you should have volume there!!! Hope it works!!!! Oh and one more thing, even though hair spray isnt good for your hair, spray it at the roots and a tiny bit on your bangs. Hope it works though.
i really would love to cut my hair all emo and shiz but my parents wont let me……
so how could i do this with out them knowing its an emo hair style plz HELP ME
T^T
hey my name is andres im colombian so my hair is naturally thick and wavy i cut my hair short so i can grow it back and still am now, when i straigthen my hair it gets horrible split ends any ideas on how i caan get rid of those split ends and get my hair thinner
Omg.. want that hair. My hair curls a little. hmpf.. Would it look pretty for me to be emo? im from thailand (It’s in asia or something) I kinda already have it… but just kinda.
Hmm, well I think sites like this are for wanna bes. I’m not hatin’, but you don’t need a website to tell you what emo is.
Emo is a type of music. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN EMO PERSON!!!
Cuttin’ and wearing only black is so judgemental, it irks me to the max.
Now if you are here for hair advice, awesome.
@ Raawr (andres):
Use heat protection after you wash your hair. I use Cristophie leave-in conditioner spary with heat protection. It works. I straighten my hair every morning and I have no splits.
Sooo yeah. Didn’t mean to chew on you guys, but emo is what you make of it.
Peace n Love,

I’m in love with the emo style.I want to change my hair color from blonde to black so i can just get blonde highlights but my mom wont let me. :’( any ideas of some hairstyles that are blonde with black highlights?
Okay well my hair is black and long and basically in between everything. Meaning fine, thick, think, course… Yeah and I’m not sure if it would look good on me. I have like dark skin (not African/American) and I’m Asian but my eyes aren’t small… I’m not really sure if it would look good on me. Like I’m getting my haircut tomorrow. What should I say? Long razor sheared layers with heavy fringed bangs? Cause I want my hair to be long and also be able to be pulled back in a ponytail cause I figure skate…
wel..i just to see all difrent kinds of emo hair cuts…not read about it….boring…
i am an emo i am getting a haircut with my short hair but i dunno wat to get plz help me!!!
i love emo butt my mum think its stupid im just 11
aleksa basic- im 11 to (: about to turn 12 and my grandma hates the way i do my hair i tease it but she dusnt approve! i feel your pain
HELLPP!! IM GETTING A HAIRCUT TODAY AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO GET!!! my hair is crazy thick and i want it thinned
thick hairs nice u shouldnt thin it i have thin hair and i hate it because i cant have it the way i want it
im 12 and i am emo and i dontthink people under stand the concept of emo…ok? its not whereing black and cutting and screamo…i use to think that …till it happened…
Well am 11, and am a emo/punk and like i want a good emo haircut, cos i cant find any nice ones
i like the 3rd hairstyle the most
Okk so imma be honest I’m 11 about to turn 12 and I do my own hair…I just got a hairdresser to just put layers in my hair and when they grew out I took some scissors and basically chopped it up haha I knew what I was doing tho. I knew what I wanted. Btw I have long, think, straight & natural blonde hair and I don’t like it
but oh well. My hair defiantly isn’t anywhere near as big and poofy as you see in some pics but it has a bunch of layers and is jagged and my bangs are swept across my face but they actually don’t cover up my eyes so yeah haha I didn’t wanna copy any picture sure I looked at some but yeah I wanted it to be mine :3 so I just spent a long time in the bathroom and came out with my dream hair 
so don’t be afraid to do things yourself but just make sure you know what your doing haha. And I didn’t use a razor I just used scissors and layered it that way. I’ll give you some tips:
Don’t cut your hair in blocks or just randomly chop at it. Take your hair and cut it at an angle so it ends up layered.
You can add fringe to it after you cut it..just like kinda do random chops like trying to make spikes at the ends of your hair. It’ll look really good:)
I don’t use hair spray because it leaves my hair all crunchy so I just add a bunch of layers and tease WITH OUT the spray
After a while your layers will grow out..so every now and then just trim them or do like I said after you cut it like at the ends chop at it as if your trying to makes spikes. It’ll keep it thicker too!:)
Add more shorter layers at the top closer to your roots for more volume.
If you want to know anything else email me at bluecatslushie@aol.com title it emo hair so I won’t ignored you haha hope this helped some!
ookay, i have thin brown medium length hair, and i’ve been trying to get my haircut like emo for the longest but idk wht to say to the hairdresser like what would look the best?
Hey I’m like 14 and I’m emo but I don’t know what emo hair cut will suit me, I have long thick curly hair, any ideas?
