Punk Hairstyles

When you think about a punk hairstyle, there are many different fashions that you can incorporate. This article will give a quick rundown of the history of the style than followed by some suggestions on the different ways you can use punk hairstyle to make a statement about yourself.

To give you a better history of the punk hairstyle, it hails back to the 1970s. The inspiration for the hairstyle came from the punk rock music of the time. The musicians often would dye their hair and spike it. This was used as a way to send a message confronting the rules of everyday society.

Today with punk hairstyle, you can still decide to dye the hair, spike it, or do both. Some people will go for the full effort and both dye and spike the hair. You can go for a Mohawk if you wanted to go this route as well when spiking and dying the hair. Some people prefer not to spike the hair so you can do an un-spiked Mohawk if it speaks to you. Deryck Whibley of Canadian band fame Sum 41 has dyed his hair occasionally and simply worked to get full spikes going in all directions. To do a Mohawk, it is recommended that you cut the hair not used for the Mohawk to about 3/8” to ½” while keeping the Mohawk part of your hair as long as you want it to be. There is not a standard length for a Mohawk and it has more to do with how much you want to push your punk hairstyle. If you are choosing to dye your hair, it is normally recommended to choose unnatural colors such as red, pink, or blue. You can choose to dye your hair whatever color you want but these are the types of colors that hail back to the beginning of the punk hairstyle.

Depending upon the constraints if you have a job, you can potentially do a more moderate look. A good example is Billy Joe Armstrong of Green Day fame. He spikes his hair to show disregard for society but his hair is shorter. This could fit both for a conservative day job and then you spike it at night to get the punk hairstyle to show who you really are.

As you can see, a punk hairstyle is not for everyone. For that person who wants to stand out and is not for everyday conformity, this hairstyle can fit. Browsing through pictures can give you a better idea how you will really want to style your hair.

I don't quite understand how anybody can claim that Bille Joe Armstrong or anyone is less punk than anyone else. Surely be saying "ok first off to be punk u need a friking razor cut shot and random spiked blue evrywhere...", you're giving people a criteria to meet to be punk, to become labeled as a punk. There's nothing punk about that man...just be yourself do what you want, that's a punk ethic.

giving some one a criteria of being a punk isnt punk. youre just judging on what YOU think is punk. people like billie joe's hair cut, others may dislike it. its their preference, not yours. so STFU and stop criticizing people's hair. chances are yours aint so pretty if your lookin on here. i know mine isnt :P
