What an idiot I am! I meant DISPLAY NAMES. Duh.

I want an emo haircut but lack the terminology.

It's a bit like this - short at the back and spiked up with some product or other, longer fringe at the front. Fear my paint skills.



I'd like to find a photograph to take to a hairdresser, but without a name to Google, I've looked at dozens of pages of miserable pixellated faces without luck.

(Alternatively, advise me not to do this, and suggest other options.)

Don't you just have to say, can I have a funky lesbian haircut please? (Or is it just the hott lesbians I know that have hair like that?) *joke*

How about this one?

Does Godwin's Law apply to haircut discussions?

Cool! Emo! Haircuts! has a bunch of photos you could print off and show the hairdresser. (actually, I'm not convinced that it isn't just 30 odd pictures of the same bloke, taken from different angles, but then again I have trouble telling Robert De Niro and Al Pacino apart.)

Thanks very much, all. Well, nearly all.

Don't you just have to say, can I have a funky lesbian haircut please?

Seriously - I did. I said the barber: 'Can I have one of those lopsided emo lesbian haircuts?' and she said: 'We're a barbers. You just tell me how short you want it. Or go to a hairdresser.'

So now I'm going to a hairdressers, but I fear their response may also be somewhat sniffy, unless I have pics. But now I have pics!

I just wanted to say that Ex's haircut diagram made me happier than anything I've seen this week. Thank you.

Does anyone have easy access to figures showing percentages of custody battles won by openly lesbian or bisexual mothers against ex-husbands versus the same for straight mothers, either in the UK or US? I'm finding actual numbers bizarrely difficult to find.

Ex, I have that haircut.

What you want to say is "I want it short and layered at the back so I can spike it with product and I want it long-to-short at the front".

My brother is a hairdresser and 'long-to-short' is the term, in the North of England at least. Essentially what they do is razor the hair so it's thinner at the long side so the hair tends to sweep towards that end and folds into the hair at the sides.

You all mocked my ghds in Fashion and Design but who's giving the advice now!
 
 
Ex

Triplets, that rocks. I now have the terminology and the methodology. I am armed and will become spikey.
 
 
Triplets

And angry.
 
 
Triplets

And sad.

I want to go and see No Country For Old Men tonight in either Brighton or Chichester. Nobody wants to come. Are there any barbetypes willing to take a chance and save me from solo shame?
 
 
Ex
15:23 / 21.01.08
I have to confess I nicked 'both angry and sad' from Scarygoround's 'emo potato' T-shirt. They've stopped selling it now, which makes me etc.
 
 
Triplets
22:41 / 21.01.08
Oh, I know you did, which just makes you even cooler.

Take a notepad and pen. People will think you're a film student or critic. And you can take live notes for the thread in Film, TV & Anime.

Damn that's good! I just hoped somebody would ask for one of my Wine Gums.

Could someone help me retrieve this article? People have helped others and even myself with JSTOR before. I think this article would be very helpful for compiling my rage and fury.

I would help with that but my institution doesn't but that journal. Someone else must on here though.

So, if one was going to a second-stage interview at a business, for a 12-8 training day, what kind of questions would you ask them? Given that you're supposed to ask as many questions as possible.
 
 
Ex

Got the article, Papess - could you PM me an email address to which to send it?

Sent you a PM Ex. Thank you, so very much!

I'm late to the party and it wasn't my question but I'd like to thank jamesPD for alerting me to what might well be the best site on the internet.

Emo guys are love their music, and they just don't sit and in the corner and cry all day. Emo boys are sweet and compassionate and every girl wants one.

There is more HERE, fellow emos!

Isn't the whole point about emo hair that it cuts itself???

Having had a self-harming girlfriend, this makes me angry, sad and hilarified.

I'm not quite convinced that this mooted haircut isn't itself an elaborate form of self-inflicted injury...

It's a clever form of delegation; every time I see a kid with a haircut like that, *I* want to injure him, Lord knows.

Kids.

Kids with weird haircuts.

Kids on Jack's fucking lawn. Carnsarnit.
