In case you are curious of how guys can wear makeup or you are a guy that is interested in wearing makeup, then we are going to give you some good, sound advice on EMO makeup for boys. Continue reading this article to find some tips on EMO makeup for boys.

You will need an eyeliner stick that is dark brown or black. We recommend you use Wet and Wild or MAC; it’s all the same and is affordable. A fine choice of eye shadows for boys would be green, black, gray, blue, purple and white. NYX has three colour palettes that will last for a long time. Don’t forget about mascara. The mascara should be black, we recommend Maybelline.

Boys also wear foundation such as MAC or Almay. Before you apply the foundation, you should put lotion on your face, that way you will have a nice glow. Next, you should commence to putting the makeup on. Don’t forget about the lip stick, nude lipstick by Victoria Secret will work just fine on boys.

Have you heard the term Emo thrown around a lot recently? If you have and are currently wondering what it is exactly, then I can answer all of your questions. In short, Emo is the latest hair and fashion trend that kids are following.

Although Emo is classed as a fashion trend, it is very much a combination of many things including the makeup, hairstyles, clothes, music and attitude. To be a real Emo kid then you need to have all of these things thrown together with a look that is usually very dark and rather somber.

Emo kids love dark clothes, emo hairstyles and emo makeup and usually the blacker the better. Black lipstick is often worn with the essential black eyeliner on both the upper and lower eye lids. The look can also be completed with black nail varnish.

The same black color applies for clothes with Emo kids as well. Skinny jeans, in black of course, with skinny t-shirts and perhaps a “hoody” with a band logo is generally the option of choice and the shoes that tend to be the most fashionable right now are the Vans slip-on style trainers that are black and white in checked.
The attitude of a real Emo kid is generally dark and somber, much like the outfit and they also love to spend a lot of time by themselves in a dark room writing poetry and meaningful song lyrics. This may seem like a generalization and in sorts it is, but this tends to be the hobby of choice for many Emo kids.

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.

Alright, when you look at a Scene person, then you look at an Emo person, what do you see? Chances are, the Emo person appears to be sad, sitting their writing poetry while the Scene person is happy, outgoing and typing their friend a message about the next party.

When you take another look at the Emo person, look at their hair. The Emo hairstyle is choppy, long bangs, short on the side and long in the back. There are also short bangs and long hair on the top.

When you take a look at the Scene hair, what do you see? Within the next paragraph, we are going to stick to the title “Emo vs. Scene Hair” and tell you what the differences between scene hair and Emo hairstyles are.

First, the Emo hairstyle is choppy, but it still has that neat look to it. The guys have a tendency to have the long hair and the girls have the shorter hair. The hair is usually always dyed black with some red streaks in it and maybe some blue streaks. If the hair is not dyed black, then it is dyed platinum blonde with some black patches, usually under it. When you look at a Scene person’s hairstyle, you will find practically the same type of hair cut, almost identical. The only feature that is different is the colour of the hair. You see, Scene people usually colour their hair “fun” colours that “stand out” in the crowd. You will find some scene hairstyles that are completely one colour such as pink (yes, pink) and even blue. The colour of the hair seems to be the only difference.

Although Emo is a fashion trend that is usually stuck to by the book, there are a few ways that you can wear your Emo hair to make sure that it is ultra chic and super trendy while still fitting in with the look. As long as the haircut is personal to the person that is wearing it and reflects the dark and somber style of the Emo look then it can be suitable for the fashion trend so playing around could be all that you need to do to come up with the latest style.

Although the hair color of an Emo chick is black or bleached blonde with a few stark and random streaks of natural color, the introduction of dark plum colors and dark browns have made the look more wearable in everyday society where the bleached blonde or blue-black look may not be totally suitable. Rainbow colors in semi-permanent or temporary dyes can be used to be washed in and then out whenever you feel like it, again giving you the chance to change as the mood lets you as well as still being able to get away with the Emo look at school or at work.

Emo girls usually wear their hair rather short while the men have a tendency to go long. Side swept bangs are also very much in trend for both genders and this is useful as it can create a variety of looks, again making it more convenient for different events.

Emo Hair does not have to be out of place for more formal events or work/school and can be changed to suit a variety of occasions as long as a little thought and effort has been put into creating the style.

We have had the punk look and even the rock look but it’s time for these very well known hairstyles to move over and let a new style commence. That new style is the Emo look.

Natural hair colors are not normally considered to be very Emo so hair dye is important. There are two main colors of which you should aim for if you are trying to be Emo, one of which is jet black or blue black and the other is bleached blonde. Either way both of these are rather high maintenance and need regular touch ups to perfect the look.

For the individual involved to have their own individual look but still incorporating the Emo feel, bright streaks of color are normally adopted with the neon ones being the usual preference. There is no limit to how these streaks are applied to the hair; they could be just one in the fringe or with brightly colored highlights. The look is down to the individual, how brave they are and also how far they are willing to go.
With regards to the colors of these streaks, neon ones are perfect for the Emo look. Pink, blue and green all as bright as they can be are very popular but other colors have been sported by those that are more unique than others.

Emo hair is all about individuality and the more unique the hair color, the better. Some streaks of color look better in black hair whereas others will be better in the blonde hair and experimenting is definitely the way forward for the Emo look.

In taking care of your emo hairstyle, there are certain pointers you need to remember. These tips are quite easy to follow that you’ll find maintenance of an emo haircut as simple as ABC.

• Wash your hair regularly using shampoo and conditioner to keep it clean.
• Avoid frequent blow drying as it can lead to hair dryness. When you are not in a hurry, simply towel dry your hair.

• Do not brush your hair when it is still damp instead, use your fingers to comb through your hair and gently detangle it.
• To maintain the sleekness of your hair, use a medium-barreled flat iron as needed.

• Apply hair coat to protect your hair from the sun and the wind which can damage your hair.

• Have your emo hair regularly trimmed to prevent split-ends and to keep it growing and glowing with health.
