From LoveToKnow Hair
Long emo hair styles have endless options for unique color and cuts. Express your individuality and wear a long emo style that fits your mysterious and emotional personality.
Long Emo Hair Styles
Poignant gals with a jaded, tough side have the mysterious ability to look cool while convincing the world they invested little care or effort. Call it their pessimistic charm, emo chicks pull off serious looks that are bound to make any high school cheerleader green with envy. Often known to snip their own hair after a bad breakup, or color their hair just for much needed change, emo gals teach the world to take themselves a little less seriously. If you want the look of a cool emo hair style, put that set of hot rollers away and try a long look.
Cuts
Emo girls may cut their own locks or visit a professional to help create their image. If you have long hair and want to experiment with an emo style, there are a few tips that make the initial salon visit successful.
- When meeting for a stylist for the first time, be sure to dress the part. Any hairdresser who’s ready to shear away a stylish emo look is going to need some inspiration.
- Inform your stylist of any hair challenges, such as damage or previous hair dye.
- Keep an open mind and take the suggestions best suited for your hair type and color.
Emo hair cuts are best known for their sharp, jagged ends. Contrary to belief, these styles don’t work for every hair type. If you have fine or straight hair, you’re in luck, if you have wavy or curly hair, you may need to consider other emo styles. A professional stylist can help you find the long style that works best for your emo image.
Side swept bangs are another hot emo look. A shorter bang also offers limitless styling options, which is perfect for an emo gal’s ever changing moods. Don’t do bangs? No problem, long emo bangs sizzle when you separate them with vibrant color.
Color Therapy
Emo gals love hair color, so if you’re looking for a new long emo hair style, go ahead and meet with a professional colorist for a hair color consultation to discuss the limitless color options that can transform your locks from girl next door innocent to out of this world hot. Paneled and funky colors add separation and depth to any style. If you wear long hair with a short bang, try some chunky hair highlights or hair lowlights shades on your bangs for added interest and sex appeal. Consider bright temporary paint colors, such as pink hair for an extreme wash of color.
Feeling blue? Slice some blue chunks in between dark or light hair. Mad at the world or dealing with pent up energy? Paint some vivid red hues on your locks. Feeling jealous or envious? Green is your color! How about the romantic emo gal? Pink is her best friend, while orange is the perfect color choice for the creative and stimulated girl. Don’t be afraid to express your chameleon moods with the artistic use of color therapy.
Styling
How to style emo hair certainly depends on the cut. Most long styles can be blown straight with a paddle brush and straightened with a ceramic plated straightening iron. Bangs can be secured with a light layer of hair spray or a gob of hair wax.
Curly and wavy long emo styles can be left to air dry for funky texture and messy, bed head charm.
Hair Accessories
Depending on your emo look, you may choose to vamp up your hair or add some quirky hair accessories. Accessories are a must have beauty weapon for lengthy hair. Shop unique polka dot barrettes or strap headbands to secure your hair. Spray on hair glitter is another fun way to add pizzazz to your emo style. Best for raves and parties, spray on glitter will add some sparkle and shimmer under the strobe lights.
