Popular amongst those who follow emo style is the scene hair, which can be termed as 'shaggy, choppy, blunt'. If you also want to sport scene layered haircut, go through the following lines and get tips to have the same.

How To Get Scene Hair

* In order to have scene layered haircut, you need to grow your hair long enough, so that the bangs reach at least to your cheeks. If you want long bangs, you need to make sure that the hair goes past your chin.

You can either get your haircut professionally or try and do it yourself. If you goi to someone it is a good idea to take pictures of the exact style that you want.

If you are cutting the hair yourself then taper the bangs so that they cover only one eye.

As for the rest of your hair cut the layers very blocky or choppy.

The back of the hair should not touch your shoulders. It has to be kept hardly a few inches below your hairline, at the nape of your neck.

You will need to straighten your hair if needed. If your hair is straight then you are lucky and can skip this step.

Next you will want to color your hair. The best colors are black or bleach blond or both.

After getting your hair colored you should add streaks. For blond hair blue or pink are good colors, for black hair it would be good to go with blond streaks.

You can style your emo scene hair further. Using wax, separate the layers piece by piece. With wax covered fingers, and pull down on the hair. The layers will stand separate from one another, looking hot. Use a light hairspray to make the hair stay in place. - 30443
