Emo Hair Tips - 2009

Emo Hair Tips

If you want to try the emo look, there are several things to remember. The emo came from the punk and new wave style of the Eighties, and it is generally thought of as an off-beat, unusual cut, despite its popularity with many celebrities. The emo is based on an idea advocated by punk rock, the Do It Yourself attitude, the idea that if you do it yourself, whatever you lose in trained expertise you make up for in personal expression and pride.

Many advocates of the emo hairstyle claim it can be done in a few minutes with a pair of scissors and a little dye. However, if you want your hair to look really good, you should think ahead and avoid complete chaos when you cut.
The primary factor to think about when contemplating an emo is what happens to your forelocks. Three things define the emo style: drooping bangs in the front, spiky strands of hair in the back (usually stiffened with gel), and dark coloration. It needs long hair in the front to work. If you have recent gotten your forelocks shortened, you should just wait till you grow back three or four inches before you go emo. The spikes in the back of the head are where you have the least worries. You can do anything there, even shave the back of your scalp, and still have an emo. Color is also flexible, but it can be controversial. Many stylists will not do blonde emos, unless they are platinum.

How To Grow Emo Hair - Some Useful Tips

So you’ve decided to try the emo look! Great, but remember that the emo hairstyle benefits from planning and forethought. It may look like it can be done in five minutes with a pair of household scissors, but what appears to be a simple hack and slash job can turn out to look like nothing but a confusing mess, totally missing the effect that a good emo should produce.

As with all hair styles, the principle goal is to bring out the strengths of the face. The emo cut is a hooded style that creates sense of mystery by covering the eyes, while simultaneously suggesting an edginess with its spikes and ragged points.

The best way to do an emo is to think about your face. If you want to cover your eyes completely you’ll need more length in front than if you would if you just want your forelocks to droop over one eye. You will need to decide this before the scissors come out. The emo cut usually requires long hair in the front and the back at the beginning.

The length is then taken down in a piecemeal fashion. The back of the head is where the most dramatic chopping occurs, and you don’t have to worry about much when you shorten this area. The front of the head, however, is subject to all sort of special considerations. Many emo cuts are short in the front and back.

And remember, long spikes require long strands of hair. Don’t cut off what you want to use later!

The emo hairstyle looks great on guys! It suits the desire for young men to create their own looks with their own hands, requiring very little in the way of hairstyling experience. The whole look is intended to be created by ordinary haircutters having fun and scissoring away anywhere on their heads that they want to!

In fact, depending on their facial structure, boys can stretch the look of the emo further than you may think! Guys can use lighter colors than the emo usually holds and still keep the heavy, moody feel of the style. Since they are culturally comfortable with rough and rugged effects, boys can wear a spiky hairstyle and not be thought of as sassy, but rather as tough and punk.

However, when boys employ the classic hooding effect created with the emo’s drooping forelocks over the eyes, they are often seen as more gloomy than many girls. The emo grew out of the spikiness of punk and gothic hairstyles, and this gives the look a serious history of rebellion, something which guys have worn well ever since Marlon Brando and James Dean wore leather jackets.

Additionally, from a point of pure attractiveness, emo boys tend to have stronger chins than girls, and this can work well with certain bangs and spike effects based on the emo. Weight, however, can be a problem for guys that wear this style. A rounded face with masculine bone structure is not suited to the emo, though larger girls still have soft enough features to make it work.

There are lots of other looks for the emo, though, looks that can even be described as “tough,” “cute,” and “strong!” It all depends on what you want to do. The basic defining aspect of the emo is the extended bangs, usually colored black, that droop down from a part to cover the eyes, along with spikes or ragged strands in the back of the head.

One of the principles of emo hairstyles, however, is that you design it yourself, and make it into whatever you want. Many girls will allow their eyes to be seen and keep the drooping bangs combed over the forehead. The emo is usually thought of as pure black, but highlights are commonly seen on them, and some girls even wear blonde versions of the style!

Bear in mind, however, that no matter how flexible a hairstyle is, there comes a point where the definition of the look is lost. A hairstyle that is long, wavy and blonde really can‘t be called emo by any stretch of the imagination. Despite the open nature of the emo and the options it provides for many different looks, its defining characteristics are the bangs, spikes in the back, and dark color.

Emo Makeup Tips - Fall Winter 2008 - 2009

The best way to finish off your emo style is with some trendy emo makeup. Both guys and girls can wear makeup as part of their emo look. However, emo youths do not wear the same makeup fashions as many other people. Instead, they have their own way of using makeup to compliment their unique, expressive style. Since the eyes are often considered the most expressive part of the body, it is this feature that emo makeup seeks to emphasize most.

Therefore, both genders often use thick, dark eyeliner around both the upper and lower edge of their eyes. Sometimes, this dark shade is complimented with a second band of a bold, bright color. Many people also use their eyeliner to add “wings” sweeping out from the outer corner of each eye.

Mascara also helps draw attention to the eyes, and thick, dark lashes are part of the emo look. The prominence of the eyes is completed by adding a bright eye shadow. This is often offset by a smoky gray section of eye shadow along the top or side of the lids.

As for the rest of the face, emo youths do not generally seek to emphasize the cheeks with bronzer or blush. A paler colored flesh is preferred. However, the lips are often colored with a deep shade of lipstick or lip gloss.

Long Emo Hairstyles for Emo Boys - Fall 2008

The emo style is all about individuality and unique forms of self-expression. Therefore, a wide variety of emo hairstyles exist. Both sexes can enjoy a range of hair lengths. Thus, even boys can wear their hair long as part of the emo culture. Of course, for males the definition of “long” can vary. For emo styles, the best lengths are those that hang to roughly shoulder length or slightly longer. Excessively long hair does not work well for styling in the emo fashion.

The best long ‘dos for guys feature sharply razored ends and erratic angles and layers that can be tailored to the exact look you want to achieve. These styles look best with hair that is dyed black. Additional color streaks or chunks may also be added to suit personal preferences. Long hairstyles should also include long bangs that hang over one eye.

To style these cuts, a hair wax may be used. When tousled through hair, the wax adds texture, definition, and a spiky shape to the long style. Long emo ‘dos on boys should not include any sort of hair tie or accessory. Ultimately, these long styles allow wearers to express their emo identity while retaining their masculinity.
