Food Coloring = Temporary Hair Dye

Things You'll Need

  1. Empty bottle or shampoo bottle
  2. Shampoo
  3. gloves
  4. Food coloring (any color)

It is semi-permanent and usually takes two to four weeks to completely wash out of your hair. The longer you leave the food coloring in, the darker the color of your hair, and the longer it lasts. Colors show up better on lighter hair than darker.

  1. Mix several drops of food coloring and a couple tablespoons os shampoo in an empty shampoo bottle. The more food coloring you use, the darker the shade of color created. Put the top on the bottle, and shake it well to mix. You can add a couple of drops of water if it seems to thick.
    Wet your hair thoroughly, and then massage the food coloring and shampoo through your hair. Be sure to cover your entire head of hair evenly if you are trying to dye your whole head. You can also separate segments of your hair and dye only part of it.
  2. Leave the food coloring in your hair for six to 12 hours. If you have blond or light brown hair, six hours is probably enough. If your hair is dark brown or black, leave it longer.
  3. Jump into the shower, and rinse out the colored shampoo. Towel dry your hair, and then dry it with a blow dryer, or let it dry naturally.
  4. Avoid washing your hair for three to five days. (I know it's nasty...) After that, you can wash it as you normally would, but each time that you wash it, the color lightens. Depending on how dark you dyed it, the food coloring completely washes out within a month.

Emo Bob Hairstyle

The emo bob is usually really short in the back and spiked up, then has long fringe in the front that sweeps over one eye or both. Now the look can go for both girls and boys.

This is a great example of the emo bob.


















And this is another great example:

















And this is the same general style but on a girl.




















See how it works on both girls and boys? So don't worry if you show a guy to your stylist to show what haircut you want if you're a girl, or the other way around.

Yet another example, (my personal fav).

Sumerizing what was already saidXx

Although the origin of emo culture or sub-culture lies in emo music genre but lately, emo hair fashion and emo hairstyles have been widely acknowledged as true emo’ strength. Besides, many people feel the real coolness of being emo can come only if you can display a good looking emo hairstyle. In the modern world, emo is classed as a separate culture, which is a combination of various things such as emo makeup, emo music, emo styles, emo fashion, emo clothes, emo attitudes and above all, emo hairstyles.
Many new trends are emerging on the realm of emo hairstyles, which are generally influenced by the basic norms such as long choppy layers, messy and uneven cuts, black dyed hair and deliberate messy looks. However, several new and cool trends in emo hairstyles reflect various modifications in the traditional emo hairstyles. For instance, shaggy haircuts, cropped hairstyles, deep and bright hair colors, medium emo haircuts, blonde emo hairstyles and many other trendiest trends are visible on the radar of emo hairstyles.

Accessories

People that have the emo and/or scene style tend to love to accessorize, usually they overaccessorize but they somehow pull it off.

Bracelets, LOTS of bracelets is one of the ways to accessorize like a true emo, but that's not everyone's style, there are many other ways to accessorize like an emo.















Converse and Glasses can also help certain people with the emo style, but not all can pull it off.














Carrying a Skateboard around can also help for some people, and cool Belts is deffinetly a yes.



















Rings and Armbands are cool too.



















Buttons are also something that the emo trend has begun to accessorize with.

But of course the main way to pull off that emo look is to just put on what you want, look how you want to look, and make up your own stuff.

Emo, Scene, Skater, Goth, Rave

These things all have their differences, and are usually easy to tell apart.
Emo: Straight hair usualy (sometimes spikey or just messy) Usally dark colored hair and makeup along with clothes (but tend to add bright colors as a contrast). Tend to be heartbroken, caring, random, expressive people.



















Scene: Bright hair and clothes, teased or poofy hair. Happy and self-concious.




















Skater: Laid back care-free style along with messy (usally long) hair and baggy clothes.
















Goth: Midevil like, dark colors always, almost dead looking, love black and hate any bright colors. Probably think they're vampires...




















Rave: Loves all bright colors and having wild hair. Crazy party animals.

Attitude

Attitude is everything. Typically you will be expected to be depressed and insecure. But it's more important to be sensitive and quiet (and who wants to be that depressed idiotic stereotype anyway??). This is an example: _--Avoid confrontation; you have to be introverted and too wrapped up in your own emotions to care about the opinions of others. But you can defend your opinions viva the internet provided you get very emotional about doing so.--_ I mean come on!!! EVERYONE knows that emo is about being emotional and sweet most of the time because usually the emo knows how it feels to be low on life, so they try and help their friends with their problems. So forget EVERYTHING you've EVER heard about those lame stereotypes that people just make up because they don't really know the emo and only see their shy, quiet side, and just let yourself be what you wanna be, emo is really just expressing yourself and not trying to fit in. BE YOURSELF!!!! If emo isn't yourself, then get lost!
