How To Create Scene Hair
Scene hair is a subcategory of Emo hair. It's a creative way to add individuality to your style. It sticks out in a crowd,
and is usually characterized by bright colors, layers and rigid cuts. Scene hair is an extension of your interests,
specifically music.
Decide what look you are going for. There are so many different ways to do Scene hair. A traditional Scene hairstyle
includes long bangs with a slanted but layered cut. Remember, Scene hair is all about making a statement. If you hair
it too short, you may want to apply extensions.
Decide whether or not you want to color your hair or insert fake pieces. If you color, focus on chunks of your hair, not
your whole head. You want to create a contrast between light and dark. For example, if you naturally have dark hair,
apply white or blond streaks under your bangs and on the sides of your head.
Comb out your hair and make a side part. The side part will be used to set a part your bang. Side-swept bangs that
cover one eye are staples of Scene hair. If your bang isn't long enough, add extensions.
With the bang separated, grab pieces of your hair at the top (crown) and begin spraying them with spritz or holding
spray. Don't spray too much, but use enough to allow your hair to hold a spike. You can also use mousse, gel,
pomade or whatever allows your hair to hold manipulation. The center of your head should have some type of
volume. Use the comb to rough up your roots and add volume.

Use your hands to add volume to the sides and back. You want big hair, but you want it to be smooth, as well. Spray all over with a holding spray and allow it to dry. Your hair should be strong enough to hold the style for several hours.
