Feather Hair Extensions

Feather Hair ExtensionsOne of the hottest trends in alternative and emo hair right now is feather hair extensions! Whilst feathers have been used for years to accessorise clips and hair pieces they’ve now made a comeback in a completely different way.

Hair Extensions Basics
As a general rule, hair extensions are the answer to not damaging your hair from bleach and coloring. They also enable you to change your look instantly, and in the case of feather hair extensions, in a totally unique way! Feather hair extensions aren’t just limited to the plain colors of feathers either. They can be found in a number of different colors and styles that will surely complement your emo/scene hair style and personality.

Black and White Feather Hair Extensions

Black and white feather hair extensions are exactly that; black and white. Tip: For a really striking look, blend the hair extensions with a bright color such as pink, blue or a color of your choice! Black and white feather hair extensions look great as an addition to either plain black or blonde hair as well.

Colored Feather Hair Extensions

Red and yellow and pink and green!

Scene Hair Extensions

Emo/Scene Hair Extensions
When contemplating an emo or scene hairstyle it is a good idea to do some research into hair extensions. Emo/scene hair extensions are the answer to not damaging your hair from bleach and coloring and in most cases it’s as simple as using clip-in hair extensions that can be found in a number of emo and scene styles.

Scene HairstyleScene Hairstyles
Before thinking about hair extensions to add length or color, you need a general scene haircut. A scene hairstyle could be described as a haircut that retains length but includes short choppy layers from the top down, as pictured on the right. The layers are then either combed back or teased (or a combination of both) and hairspray is used to make them spiky. Hair extensions can then be added to create length, volume or to add bright and funky colors/patterns.

Scene Hair Extension Types
There are a number of different types of hair extensions (clip-in, glue-in, micro loop and so on.) however we’re going to focus on the different types of scene hair extensions instead, for example – the colors and styles that generally represent emo or scene hair.

Scene HairstyleColored Hair Extensions
Adding an assortment of colored hair extensions is an easy way to stylize your hair and make it more ‘scene’. The color you choose ultimately depends on your preferences however it is a good idea to choose a color that works well in contrast to the rest of your hair. Also, don’t limit yourself to just one color. Try a combination of two colors if you’re feeling up to it! Tip: Black or platinum blonde hair works well with all colored hair extensions!

Racoon Stripe/Coontail Hair Extensions
Racoon stripe or ‘coontail’ hair extensions are very popular and can make a great addition to your hair. They are hair extensions that are striped horizontally or in a ‘V’ shape and come in a range of colors. Tip: For a striking look it is advised to make use of plain colors and then in addition partially blend in coontail hair extensions with a color that already exists in your hair.

Leopard Print, UV and Miscellaneous Hair Extensions
Scene hair extensions also come in a range of other styles including leopard print, stars, hearts, geometric shapes, various fringe pieces and even hair extensions that glow in UV light. Whilst not all of these scene hair extensions are readily available to buy, it is relatively easy to make them yourself by purchasing platinum blonde humain hair extensions and permanent dye. The rest is up to your creativity!

How To Make Your Hair Emo

Emo hair styles vary from person to person and generally speaking, emo hairstyles make full use of bangs by shaping the hair into a side fringe that covers one eye. The side fringe is the most obvious aspect of an emo hair style but that’s only where it begins!

What makes up an emo hairstyle?

  • Brightly contrasting or colored highlights interspersed with dark shades such as black or deep brunette. For example, black hair with white blonde – or dark brown hair with blue streaks. Not all emo hair styles require black hair though! White blonde hair with colored streaks/highlights is great too.
  • Emo hair styles are usually supposed to be worn down. Ponytails or plaits aren’t that common when it comes to emo hairstyles. Hair is kept untied making good use of cute hair clips such as bows or heart/star shapes.
  • Long bangs should be swept across the face, obscuring one eye. As to which eye – it’s your choice!
  • Emo styled hair is deliberately messy – often requiring heavy use of hair styling products to create the desired look. A not so carefully crafted unruly style definitely reflects the wearers emotions – hence, an emo style!
  • An emo hairstyle is usually straight and asymmetrical. It’s common to wear one side shorter than the other and layers are very popular!

There is so much that a person can do with their hair to express their style. Having an emo hairstyle makes you stand out as an individual and it’s common to find that you get a boost of confidence by spending just that little bit extra on your hair.

So how do you make your hair emo?

  1. Grow your hair out if it’s too short. Whilst a lot of emo hairstyles don’t require that you have long hair to begin, having longer hair makes it a lot easier to shape a side fringe that covers one of your eyes. Your fringe should be longer than your nose – but no longer than your jawline.
  2. Layer your hair by cutting jagged sections throughout your hair. An emo hairstyle isn’t about symmetry – so have some fun! Remember not to cut too much off initially. You can always cut your hair shorter but there’s no way to get your hair back once it’s cut! Well, apart from the obvious..
  3. Razor your hair occasionally to maintain the spiky layered look.
  4. Dye your hair black, brown, or blonde and add some color. If you’d rather not damage your hair with bleach, consider colored extensions!
  5. Straighten your hair with a hair straightener. Remember to invest in heat defence sprays/shampoo so you don’t damage your hair.
  6. Accessorize your hair. Girly bows are particularly popular. Add them randomly to your hair. Also consider hair clips that are shaped like hearts, stars or bats! Try not to go overboard. One or two accessories is perfect.
  7. Take care of your new hair! It’s a big part of you and damage can take months to repair!
