Funky Hairstyles

Funky hairstyles are a unique way to express your personality and define your fashion mantra. Not for the timid at heart, funky hair often takes not only a strong persona, but also a fashionable sense to wear them with confidence.

Add expressive color for a funky look.

If you're bored with traditional hair fashions, it may be time to take things up a notch with a cute and funky new look.

Funky hair is common in the pop rock and entertainment industry. If you need funky hairstyle inspiration, look no further than the Billboard Top 50 and you're bound to find a few musical artists whose fashion sense crosses into the realm of funky hair.

Bangs are back, but not in the 80s big hair way. To modernize the bang while adding drama, consider an asymmetrical bang. Asymmetrical bangs add instant pop to any hairstyle. Rather than change the overall length of your hair, a short bang is a no-commitment cure for gals who are ready to add a funky element to their hairstyle.

To further enhance this creative look, why not add multi-color to the bang? Platinum locks look very cool with chunky lowlights weaved in. For an even more extreme look, consider lightening the entire bang, while adding rich lowlights through the sides and the back of the hair. Either way, bangs add inarguable funk appeal that anyone can wear.

The pixie cut is hands down one of the most popular funky hairstyles. If you're ready to make a bold statement, a pixie cut is sure to turn heads. Furthermore, cropped hair is ultra-low maintenance. To keep your pixie looking its best, avoid the use of crunchy styling gels. Instead, flaunt a wispy pixie and keep your color saturated (deep in tone) or lightened to the lightest shade of pale. Pixie cuts won't flatter everyone, so be sure you can rock this look before making the snip. Chances are, if you look best with your hair pulled back, you'll look great in a pixie cut.

Layers are a great way to introduce funky looks to the scissor-wary but they immediately change the look of any hairstyle. The ever popular emo hair style is known for jagged layers. To create funky layers, opt for razored edges and artistic color. To make the most impact with razored ends, hair should be shoulder length or shorter. For extra funky effects, add chunky highlights or hair lowlights shades to draw attention to the layers.

Not all funky hairstyles are defined by a cut. For instant funk appeal, consider adding contrasting color to your hair. Purple, deep blue, or pink hair looks very funky when added artistically to a base color. For the best effect, your base color should be solid in tone, and the bold color should be chunked into the hair. Avoid using more than one color at a time.

No matter the style, funky hairstyles never fear change. If you're ready to express your creative and eclectic side, wear your new hair with confidence, and change it often. Find a talented hair stylist who will see you through all your funky style changes, and keep an open eye for new inspirations. Whether it be a color or a cut, funky looks are always one step ahead of the fashion trends. Be bold and set no limits on your imagination or your hair style!
