Emo is the term for a person who likes dark colors and wears them all the time. Emos usually dress in black clothing such as jeans and t-shirts, but may also wear eyeliner. They often dye their hair black or brown. These days, many teens claim themselves to be emo. This style was created by young people who were unhappy with mainstream fashion trends so they decided to create something new.
Most Popular Emo Hairstyles for Long Hair:
Take a look at these hairstyles that are perfect for women who have long hair.
Ponytailed Emo:
Even if you have an emo hairstyle – which is characterized by long, unkempt hair – there are plenty of stylish ways to put your hair up. Take the strands at the back and tie them in a low ponytail for a casual look or put them up in neat buns for something more refined.
The Dual Hues:
Fun is in the colors we wear, and if you want to get noticed, make sure your clothes are brighter than they usually are. My outfit consists of black pants with an emerald green shirt matched with a vibrant pink hair tie. To top off my moody yet energetic appearance I’m wearing a lime-green headband which matches my shoes perfectly! It’s important for people to know that looking great isn’t about being dark and depressed all the time – it’s about feeling alive inside and letting it show on the outside too!
Long Braids:
Emo has a distinctively severe look and may make one think they are being judged. But there are some subtle ways to modify this look; such as opting for softer braids at the back of your head instead of harsh cuts. Begin by sectioning off hair from the nape at the base of your neck, then braid it all the way down to create an intertwined design that can be woven between itself or up on top of a bun atop your head.
Funk it up:
There are many different elements that make up the perfect Emo hairstyle including a light feathery cut with long bangs and choppy lengths. But if you’re looking for something edgier, you might want to consider going for an emo style mixed in with a funky flair – just enough so it doesn’t get too caught up in life but also has enough swagger to feel like there’s some movement left in life.
The Ribbons:
To make your short-haired or wavy hairdo feel just a little more feminine, why not add some of your own unique flair? The hair in this style starts off tousled with shorter lengths near the top. Towards the end though it becomes sleeked out to an even longer length before ending in a ponytail – all decorated in ribbons.
The Massive Curls:
This long blonde hairstyle is a less harsh emo look, where the hair though parted and styled in a gothic fashion still has some curls at the top that lighten up gradually until they fade away completely halfway through the length of it.
The Bandana:
The bandana isn’t just an accessory – it’s a staple for the emo haircut. Start by dividing one side of your hair (the shorter locks) and tie them back with a scarf or fabric so they aren’t in the way; do this on both sides. Then, use bobby pins to section off some strands at the front as well as bits along the side while you style up your desired length; use bobby pins if needed because these pieces of hair need to stay out of sight. Finish up with some hairspray for some extra hold before topping it all off with your bandana.
The Front Bangs:
This would be considered a rare style for someone who desires an emo look. Instead of an angular cut all the way around, this person has opted for a Chinese front bang hairstyle which also starts with soft bangs at the front but gradually becomes sleeker near the back.
The Simpleton:
This hairstyle right here is the best that you can get in a formal gothic haircut where the hair may not be completely emo-like, yet still has qualities. Although this isn’t hardcore emo, we can definitely wear one of these styles and tell people it’s an emo hairstyle without looking totally weird! Soft blends of color mixed into the base locks will create effects just like what real artists would do.
