"emo" "scene" look, anyone else sick of it? Options

[aznxdreamer]

anyone else sick of the whole "emo" hairstyle? i mean, think about it, you're basically just taking a pair of scissors and hacking away at their own head. some people go way too far and it looks like they have mullets. seriously, we're gonna look back on this 20 years from now and laugh at ourselves.

yeah...so im done venting now.

[*This Confession*]

haha
this must go along wtih that other topic.

No i love my friend
he use to have that whole "scene" "emo" thing
and got all his hair cut off
and all the scene girls left him alone

&dances;

[SarahxJoy]

It doesn't matter me. I think some of the trends that are "emo"-ish are quite nice actually. I mean, whatever suits them, right?

As long as they're not forcing me to dress or act like anything I'm not, then I'm fine.

[tootsie_kiddo]

I dunno, I can never imagine myself with the "emo" look. I actually think a lot of people dress that way because it's supposedly trendy now, making them fake. But I know a few people out there actually dress that way, because they believe that that's how they feel inside. If that's the case, I have no problem with it. But the whole "BANG BANG I'M ELECTRIKK!!!" thing really does piss me off...

[blah1234567]

theres lots of styles out there and emo is one of them. why does it bother you? if you dont like it then just...ignore it. o.o

[*mipadi*]

You're one of them, aren't you?

[AngryBaby]

*mad because she's emo*

its getting a little over done though.
5 years ago noone was doing this. therefore its a trend

[SarahxJoy]

Honestly, I think everything is a trend. To at least some extent.
But then there are those who are really "out there" in doing their own thing.
So to those few individuals, I applaud.

[AnnahhbeL]

I don't really like it either.

[lumpy]

*mad because she's emo*

its getting a little over done though.
5 years ago noone was doing this. therefore its a trend

umm just wondering how are you "emo"? I thought that we had established that "emo" was a genre of music...and not a "lifestyle" as they refer to it...

[*StanleyThePanda*]

^ He was quoting someone, not calling himself emo.

theres lots of styles out there and emo is one of them. why does it bother you? if you dont like it then just...ignore it. o.o

I agree with you...
Though the whole "scene" look is more overpopulated, I guess you could say, then other styles.
But there are a lot of "preps" and "gangsters" and "goths" too...

[tomgurl]

whoever takes up 4 that stupid emo look is EMO*** && thats not a good thing..emos are all like omygah im so depressed my life sux..when really there lives could be jus as good as any1 elses if they give it a try && stop cryin in a dark corner all by there selves i mean really...GET REAL.. i hate when ppls tryin 2 be all different & they jus look like everyone else because eveyones tryin 2 be different but those ppl who are think that being different is wearing all black && converse & black finger nail polish & hair over there eyes & crap...its stupid..to all those ppl i say: GET A LIFE !!!

*ALEYA*

[*I Shot JFK*]

^ no, no.

he was right.

silly cow.

anyway. emo girls are hot.

[tomgurl]

emo gurls are messed up..reality check 4 this guy 2...

*ALEYA*

[demolished]

only a few emo hairstyle looks really nice.

the ones you see probably look like shit.

i hate the one that have all their hair cover their face. that's ugly.

i like some ... with certain hair sticks up and down, side of the hair only cover part of the eye or corner of the forehead.

[AngryBaby]

umm just wondering how are you "emo"? I thought that we had established that "emo" was a genre of music...and not a "lifestyle" as they refer to it...

silly girl, shes the one that made that "emo hairstyles anyone?" topic. now hush

*ALEYA*

*ALEYA*

Um, that isn't rude?

I'm personally not in favor of that trend but hey, I don't become ignorant and start cracking cheap jokes on it. It is what it is. They do what they do. It's their own thing. I don't think you can "de-emofy them". It's just another phase in history as much as the grunge thing was in the early 90s. Deal with it; grow up.

[*This Confession*]

its some lame trend.

They only like it over the internet.
not in real life.

seriously.


Its a genre of music. the whole scene thing i would believe just to be the name of the lifestyle. At the beginning the whole lifestyle started with the whole sxe [straight-edge] thing. And so on, I just don't pay any mind to it. Unless these little 12 yr olds are bragging about being emo, and go about the whole sluttish way. Then the normal one. 0_o although whats the normal way.. I'm going to shut up.. .-_-

[tomgurl]

ur tellin me 2 grow up?? dude ur the one bein all "thats degrading" about it..pssht sissy...get a life..

*ALEYA*

[*This Confession*]

hahaha---i wish my lawn was EMO so it would cut itself !!!!!
*ALEYA*

sorry but thats incredibly rude.

Emo the genre of music does mena Emotional Punk music.

But it doesn't mean people that follow the supposed lifestyle cut themselves and are depressed. Atleast some do have enough sense to know they have no reason to be depressed because people out there do have reasons unlike them. People that cut just show how weak they are.

[tomgurl]

exactly and ppl that cut call themselves emo..belive me i kno plenty of them

*ALEYA*

[*This Confession*]

yea i think i would probably know more.
I get called it quite a lot.
And got screamed emo across a mall before 0_o

What i said is that people that cut themselves
You have no reason to call them emo. Their just
weak.

[tomgurl]

okay honestly u must not understand ...
it duznt matter whether youve been called one or not
i kno wat ppl who call themselves emos are like
they weak and depressed & they call themselves emos
and act like ther life is so messed up when its not
they just act like it 2 get attention
OKAY!?!?!?!

*ALEYA*

[oXMuhNirvanaXo]

I love it :-)

[*This Confession*]

well then their just attention seekers.

[tomgurl]

yea thats wat i wuz tryin 2 explain 2 every1 in the 1st place...

*ALEYA*

[melface]

it's okay... only if they know how to pull it off... and if their personality is just as awesome. duh.

[Skyline Drive]

the people that are most into the scene act like they are disgusted by it.

[tomgurl]

^^^yea sure whatever..

*ALEYA*

[angelrevelation]

it gets annoying when you see a WHOLE BAND have the exact same haircut and clothes... AND accessories.

[n00b]

the emo and scene look is used way too much and I HATE how they talk
"&& IM A SCENE KID NEON GLOWSTICKS PWN YO ROBOT, UHM AND IM A DINOSAUR, RAWR!"
I do admit I like emo boy's hair =X and sometimes a boy in girlpants makes me say WHERE!!!??

[Doctor Soul]

Don't worry, the ravers will take over again someday..

[colleen92]

umm just wondering how are you "emo"? I thought that we had established that "emo" was a genre of music...and not a "lifestyle" as they refer to it...

that's what all the emos say.

anyway, yes i'm very sick of it. can't wait till it's all gone...but yea, guys that have better clothes than i do is just weird

[n00b]

emo kids are just balhbalhbalh

[doork]

geshhh let them be.. if you dont like it then dont look. simple as that

[Melissawilson5]

I am so sick of people Teasing Emo's on how they dress or have there hair....just because someone has a werid hairstlye and there hair is black does not make them automatically emo people get over the whole emo thing its so annoying!!

[AngelinaTaylor]

It's funny how people say "OMGOMGOMG I HATE EMO!!! THEY WHINE SO MUCH ABOUT EVERYTHING!"

How hypocritical. Aren't you doing the same thing? Stop whining, people.

Taylor``

[Underestimated**...]

I think that if people want to be emo
or whatever to go ahead and do
whatever they want because it's their
business not ours. Why can't people
just leave other people alone. Let them
go on with there lives and do what they
want to. People shouldn't be making
fun of other people's way of living. It's
so rude...

[*I Shot JFK*]

is anyone else more sick of aleya than they are of emo?

just a thought...

[Skyline Drive]

Yes. That's why I don't bother responding to any more of her ridiculous topics.

[*Zatanna*]

*random not so random observation*

There is a crap load of "Emo" topics at cB.

Seems to me (and this is just a superficial observation, mind you) that these "Emo" styles you people speak of is what in the 80's we referred to as "goth" or at one point, "grunge goth."

Another decade, another *style genre*.

And here I am, just wanting to see someone sport the MC Hammer pants again - because *that* was entertaining.

[Underestimated**...]

is anyone else more sick of aleya than they are of emo?

just a thought...

yes i am!!! lol...i mean really she makes a topic about loving fashion and wanting to talk about it then she makes a topic wanting "tips" and "advice" about it... does any1 kno wats up with her? i mean really..

[Dragonfly_babe]

Actually I have seen many emo boys with the most perfect hair!!! It's shiny and sleek and i wonder how there hair looks that good. Maybe they use herbal essence ???

[blucheri]

can someone post a picture of the "Emo Look"

[Dragonfly_babe]

Actually I don't really care it has nothing to do with me. People dress however the hell they wanna dress. Who am I to tell them it's stupid? Who am I to say it's stupid?

What really gets annoying is the number of people bitching about Emo's. It get's old after a while

What is EMO really anyway??? I was told that it stood for emotional rock music?? But now I hear people talking about the "Emo lifestyle" <<< What is that??

I've actually seen some Emo people with really nice hair....


some emo pics:

[*mipadi*]

Short for emotive hardcore, emo is a genre of rock that grew out of the DC hardcore punk scence of the 1980s. Hardcore punk was mainly about politics or other social issues; emo denoted hardcore punk music that focused on the feelings, emotions, and circumstances of an individual, rather than a large socioeconomic group.

why do you have to criticize other peoples' ways of living, if they're not even bothering you or doing anything to harm you?

Yeah I know what Emo music is and I know emo fashion. I know some Emo people but what is Emo lifestyle?

How would u define it?? I hear to many people complaining about it so I think it's only fair for a person that is emo to share their views.

[Looow]

Don't look at them if they bug you so fcuking much.

[Dragonfly_babe]

Don't look at them if they bug you so fcuking much.

Oh, I can't help you there. I'm only familiar with the genre of the music, and not terribly knowledgeable on the counter-culture social group.

[nopattern]

it will die out soon.

[Gypsy Eyes]

I don't like it, but it doesn't bother me. Let them dress how they want.

[*Libertie*]

^Same, I don't care. It's a fad, who cares who started it, who's mooching off of it, who's being a poser, who's being a copycat, does any of it really matter?

[Frostedflakes616]

If it looks good on them, I like it. It's not that bad, I cut my own hair too, and it looks pretty good, it's not like an "emo" look or anything. Would you call this emo?


thats not me btw, thats some Japanese guitarist named Hiroto. People think he looks emo, but he's just a band member, and they dont even play emo music. A lot of people just use the look because it looks good on them, but they're not really "emo"

[hollywood.]

^No. Thats not emo. It looks more.....gothic to me.
I don't care for it. If people want to express their thoughts through clothing its their choice. We can't tell them to stop. They're not hurting anyone. [Probably themselves if they're emo.]

[Frostedflakes616]

He's not even gothic, it's just a style, there are so many other pictures of him and other people, hardly any of them look the same, they change their style all the time, and thats just one of them

[hollywood.]

Well I was just taking a guess at it, I have really never heard of him. It looked grungy to me. But back to the topic, let the 'Emo' people live how they want. No need to label them.

[Frostedflakes616]

^ I agree. If they want to be emo, let them. If they want to cut (although not all of them do) let them. We can HELP them and try to get them to stop the cutting and hopefully be less depressed, but we can't force them to. Besides, to the preppy people, they start saying shit about you when they hear you say shit about them. They'll be saying "Those preps are nothing but snobby rich kids," and stuff like that.

Everyone should remember this quote, it's very popular.
"Treat others they way you want to be treated."

I think the whole teen generation should be reminded of that quote.

[wayne]

wasnt into that crap to begin with.

but hey. whatever floats your boat. it diversifies (for some reason i feel akward about that word) the world. i mean, everyone's gotta be different.

[*ECD & C0*]

emo people annoy the crap out of me especially the posers who act all depressed and crap they are all "omfg everyone hates me i want to die" well they are annoying and maybe they should die --- ops that was mean but they really annoy me and they call other people like preps and nerds and stuff but i know emo kids who get offended if your like "OH, EMO KID" well im going on and on

[clarissa]

It's funny. They say they try to be original but they ALL END UP LOOKING EXACTLY THE SAME. That's what bugs me.

[iminlovewithTomD...]

No, I'm not sick of it. I think it looks cool... it's sort of rebelling against the whole preppy world of sh*t...

ugh, i hate preppy stuff...

it's a way to not conform... unless of course you're cutting your hair like that specifically so you can be considered a nonconformist...

i, myself, don't like to conform. I just like what appeals to me, i do what i like to do.


thhhhhhhhat's a wrap

[n00b]

I love emo's boy's hair
just their pants
a little much, correct?

[hollywood.]

Yeah. Just let them live. Seriously, no need to label them. They're not any different from us. We're all humans.

[BOOGERSHAHA]

it's a way to not conform... unless of course you're cutting your hair like that specifically so you can be considered a nonconformist...

yeah haha i actually think "emo kids" are more of conformists than other people are.

[n00b]

emo kids are like the rest of us.
so who really cares?
but what the point is
emo IS a genre of punk/rock music.
and for some reason it turnrd into a style...

[*Libertie*]

I love emo's boy's hair
just their pants
a little much, correct?

Oh, I like the pants. :P

Although.. I don't know how much I'd like it if my boyfriend wore the same pants size as me.

[Skyline Drive]

My "emo" friend came with us to downtown last night and everyone EVERYONE would turn around to look at us. Not sure what they found so interesting about him. Sure his pants were tight but other than that it was nothing drastic. I don't know. I thought it was ridiculous. I hate living in the damn bible belt. So close-minded..

[iminlovewithTomD...]

hey... anybody ever think of this?

maybe emo people are sick of "normal" (if that's how you might wanna refer to it... i prefer not to) people's style.

it's not like emos aren't entitled to their own opinions.

[fagget]

When almost everybody on MySpace is "emo" don't you think it's kind of "normal", usual, I would say.

[n00b]

Oh, I like the pants. :P

Although.. I don't know how much I'd like it if my boyfriend wore the same pants size as me.

yeah sometimes the pants are sexy :P :3
Just a little much.
but yeah that'd be weird.
but you could share jeans! :D :P

[*RockizLife*]

I don't wear girl pants. I wear fitted thighs and boot cut guy jeans. I wear pants that actually fit and I get called emo. Oh, and did I mention I really don't give a damn?

I think the look is great. People are so critical of it because, personally, I think they're a little envious of it because it really is hard to pull off and most people who tried to would look like shit. It's a lot harder to pull off then poppin' a polo. I used to dress like that... But, yeah, I'm not sick of the look at all. It's the most original look I've seen. Kids at my school all make their own necklaces and draw their own designs and stuff. I don't think I'm really emo or scene... I dress the way I want.

[hollywood.]

I seriously thought that 'Emo' was a subgenre of music. When did it turn into a fashion style?

[lightsabersavvy]

i dont think. that its annoying.
but some of the hairstyles are really ugly.
and then people are just like.

OMFGZZ I LOVE YOUR HAIRR.

just because now, they are 'emo' because
they have an 'emo' haircut.


AND.

so what if they're depressed?
some people have feelings.

[lumpy]

silly girl, shes the one that made that "emo hairstyles anyone?" topic. now hush
i know what im saying before i say it

did you just call me a girl? and if so...i never posted some topic about hairstyles.

[rainbow piss]

Emo, like Michael mentioned earlier, is emotive hardcore.

& people, there's a difference between scene & emo.

Emo kids are more in touch w/ their feelings. Maybe too much.
They'll usually wear darker clothes. Oh, & they wear hoodies a lot, too.
They supposebly enjoy writing poetry & listen to bands like Fall Out Boy, The Used, From First to Last, & Senses Fail.

Scene kids are pretty much obsessed w/ little kid things (Pokémon, Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, etc).
They usually wear brighter colors & wear an excessive amount of makeup.
They don't put their hair in their faces, instead they usually cut the top of their hair & bleach the top of their hair blonde. idk how to explain it.
They also wear extra big sunglasses & supposebly enjoy photography.
They're mostly straightedge & listen to hardcore or post hardcore bands. Oh, & they usually put 4875038 bands on their music section on their myspace although they probably don't listen to most of them.

These are only from my observations, so don't expect it to be completely accurate, but from what I've seen, scene kids are trendier.

To me, the emo trend seems to be dying out & everyone has moved on to being scene.

Yes, it's annoying, but what can we do?

[*RockizLife*]

They supposebly enjoy writing poetry & listen to bands like Fall Out Boy, The Used, From First to Last, & Senses Fail.

Hmm, I enjoy writing poetry and I listen to all the bands you listed. Actually, The Used and From First to Last are two of my favorite bands. Last time I checked, I wasn't emo.

*sigh* Kids and their stereotypes.

[Forgottenstar27]

Who cares what people dress like today. And why is it only emo/scene people that get judged. there's other styles of cloths out today too. We don't go around bashing preppy people or gangsters. And how does hair make someone something eles? People are people, not some stupid lable...

[KMFDM_MDFMK]

the look doesn't bother me..it is just that some scene kiddies are total asses

[whenshesdancing]

personally, i'm not quite over it yet. scene kids should be allowed to look and dress they want to.

why do we not critisize the "preppy" look, or whatever other ways there are to dress out there? everybody has a unique style, i think it's about time to deal.

[BOOGERSHAHA]

people definitely criticize the preppy look though...at least around here.

"stfu you homo with the pink popped collar from lacoste"
something like that.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

emo people annoy the crap out of me especially the posers who act all depressed and crap they are all "omfg everyone hates me i want to die" well they are annoying and maybe they should die --- ops that was mean but they really annoy me and they call other people like preps and nerds and stuff but i know emo kids who get offended if your like "OH, EMO KID" well im going on and on

What makes them posers? compaired to the others?

[SMiLEEFORMEE]

i can't really find a way to answer this cause i can't stand labels
everyone's there own person with unique styles, i'd hope
that's just my view

[lightsabersavvy]

i am very convinced that i started a lot of trends.
haha. but its not true.
like. last july. i had an impulse to cut my hair.
seriously.
it was weird.

[BOOGERSHAHA]

^

wait. what are you talking about? i'm confused. haha.
yeah.

[iminlovewithTomD...]

I thought you were the girl that liked grammar? its a fad. every generation had a fad - flappers in the 20s, etc.

what does the first part have to do with anything? the only thing in grammar that i don't give a shit about when i'm online is capitalization... it's not as important.

anyhow... you didn't exactly specify what "it" is (when you said, "it's a fad.") so i'm not exactly sure how to respond. do you mean the the emo thing is a fad, or that the "normal" way to dress is a fad?

[lilangryaznangel]

THe whole emo scene is pretty stupid. i dont mean to bash anyone though. Its just .. . that the hair style for me is telling me that you need to find a stylist and get a haircut. My little brother went through the whole emo thing. I was always wondering if he was okay since his hair would cover his eyes. We all thought that the hair was getting in his way and was distracting him form school. atleast no he finally cut his hair.

[ghjgfkgfk]

all the scenesters look like they'd smell like period every day

[no-name]

^lol..i find that comment quite funny

[datass]

I'm sick of it.

[Forgottenstar27]

^sick of what? People expressing themselves in their own way?



It’s a style. Why can't people dress the way they feel most comfortable in and just live their life? Why is it such a big deal?

[pedophile]

^sick of what? People expressing themselves in their own way?

It isn't considered expressing yourself in your own way when you're following some trend.

[no-name]

^tread aren't a form of expression

[iminlovewithTomD...]

It isn't considered expressing yourself in your own way when you're following some trend.

they're not necessarily following a trend.

[Forgottenstar27]

you wear your hair the way you want and you pick out cloths that fit your best interest, even if it happens to be trendy. That is expressing yourslef. i guess in your own way wasn't what i was trying to say.

[subway]

i love shaggy hair and tight pants but not only "scene" kids wear them. Fashionable people wear them, too. Pete Doherty, DUHHH. how hot.
