One of the trendiest hairstyles to date, the emo hairstyle is on the fast track to popularity among the younger crowd. The emo hairstyle transcends the realm of styling your hair simply to look good and becomes an expressive form. The emo haircut allows the expression of individuality and creativeness. The basic emo hairstyle can be found as a short look or as a long look with similarities between the two.


Short Emo Hairstyle

The short emo haircut involves a short and spiky cut with very long bangs. With this style, the bangs are worn in a long fringe that lies over the face, but brushed to one side. The bangs essentially cover one eye, completely or almost completely. This fringe of bangs presents a canvas that can be used to express individuality with highlights and streaks.
Males tend to prefer the shorter emo haircut that is short and spiky in the back and includes a long fringe of bangs in the front. However, females also wear this shorter version of the emo haircut.


Long Emo Hairstyle
The long emo hairstyle often appears in dark colors and it frames the face while sweeping to one side. Females tend to prefer the longer emo with long bangs in the front and the hair is usually layered. However, males also wear this longer version of the emo haircut.
