Emo Emo Emo

In the mid 90’s, bands such as Rites of Spring, Weezer and Sunny Day Realestate start moving away from the dirty grungy pessimism of the music of those times towards more punky, happy kinda preppy and totally emotional mixed in with some gothic accessories, through time this became the very well know subculture known as EMO.

Today being an emo embodies an entire lifestyle, a sense of style which is unique, a love of raw emotional music, a pessimistic outlook on life with a feeling social discontent and being totally misunderstood while also looking totally cute.

Emo Hairstyles

When we think of emo hairstyles we think of:

  • Straight hair died black with a chunky side bang covering one eye.
  • Hairstyle with sharp edges, angles and shapes
  • A unisex hairstyle that can be worn by both emo boys and emo girls alike – very androgynous, although girls sometimes wear the style a bit longer.
  • The side bang can include a streak or block of hair that is in another color such as blonde, pink, purple whatever you like really.

Emo Hair for Boys

Emo is a subculture of punk. Like all good subcultures it has gone beyond its emotional musical core to dictate a whole lifestyle which includes a certain way to dress, act and most important to this blog – way of doing your hair!

So this is a post for the emo boys, but any guy really as I think the emo hairstyle is very cool. I have included many Emo Band images for your viewing pleasure and who knows, you may just find your new mens hairstyle amongst one of these musos. Now some of you may not consider some band I put up here as Emo, fair enough – you may not consider that to be the case – but what we are looking at here is hairstyles. Emo, Screamo and post-hardcore mens hairstyles at that.

My definition of the emo boy hair style is: shorter in the back with a longer angled fringe (bang) in the front with a chunky bleached section in it. Obviously it varies from person to person. You get longer variations of the style and in many different colours.

Enjoy!
