Be aware that listening to Metal doesn't make you a Metalhead, just like listening to punk rock doesn't make you a punk, and listening to rap doesn't make you a gangsta.
A Metalhead is a person who has long hair, wears black band T-shrits and blue denim or khaki pants. For male Metalheads, it is also acceptable to be shaven bald, though long hair is preferable. For female Metalheads, known as Metal Chicks, denim or khaki skirts are acceptable. Steel-toed boots are preferable. Other accessories that are sometimes used are spiked wristbands or gauntlets, leather jackets, and denim jackets.
The current generation of Metalheads take precedence over the Metalhead cultural guidelines and therefore decide what renders one as a poser. Common misconceptions about Metalheads is that they're gothic, or that they listen to Metalcore and Nu-Metal. Most Metalcore and Deathcore bands, including As I Lay Dying, Atreyu, Bullet for my Valentine, Bring Me the Horizon etc. are not acceptable in Metal Culture. Nu-Metal is not accepted as a legitimate form of Metal. Nu-Metal bands include Korn, Slipknot, Linkin Park, Disturbed, etc. And last of all, Gothic Metal bands like Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, His Infernal Majesty, etc. are despised in Metal culture.
Items that render one as a poser in Metal include hair dye, any haircut that a conformist might have, brightly colored T-shirts. Eyeliner and nail polish are acceptable for Metal Chicks to wear as long as it doesn't look too Gothic.

Jake: Did you see that Metalhead walk by with the long hair, Skinless T-shirt, and Leather jacket?
Jeremy: Yeah, the one with those blue jeans and black steel toes! Damn!
Jake: That's one guy I wouldn't wanna fuck with.

Get the Metalheadmug. Lets get this straight. Metal head is a stereotype. That in itself isnt so bad. Metalheads can be loud and quiet. Not either. Although most of my friends wouldn't back down from a fight. Metalheads dont skank. I dont even know where the dude down there got that from. Thats rudeboys and skinheads. I have friends from all those subcultures/genres/stereotypes, and metalheads STRICTLY speaking mosh/headbang. However, just because your into metal doesn't mean you can't skank. Im well into my metal Pantera..Cannibal Corspe..the likes but im a proper ska lover aswell. And im commonly found at raves. Yeah so diss me and say im a posuer*(correct way of spelling it. Poser is wrong) Stereotypically speaking MetalHeads wear band tee's, camo pants, big boots (DMs maybe) and leather jackets. This isnt always true. I wear band tee's alot but hardly ever don the boots. And just because you like Nu-metal doesnt mean your not a metal head. FYI Numetal may not be as heavy as thrash but it's still metal. TBH anyone that says metalheads wear this, and do that and listen to this are wrong. There is versatility within the genre. One cannot compare the likes sepultara and slipknot. They are nothing alike bar the guitar and drum involved. But in that case mcfly is metal. And dont you dare say Sepultra and cannibal corpse arent metal. To think that you'd need to be shot.
Yeah metal is good. Damm me its ace. But there is different types. Keep it metal.

Get the Metalheadmug. An avid listener of Metal music, such as Metallica, Judas Priest, Slayer, Black Sabbath, Godsmack, etc. Absolutely hates rap, and the shit that has come up now, like emo. NO ONE CARES ABOUT EMO!
Poser Metal Bands: Limp Bizkit, etc
Generally, Metalheads wear jeans, a band tshirt, and are possibly pissed off. If theyre pissed, you'll know. NEVER INSULT METAL IN FRONT OF THEM. THEY WILL KICK YOUR ASS AND IT IS NOT A FIGHT YOU WANT TO GET INTO. YOU WILL BE INJURED. Metalheads are extremely into their music, and if you insult it, prepare for doom. Also, they hate emos and preps above all other things. They will go to great lengths to pound on the pussies. They get laid a lot too.
Metalheads, generally, like to booze it up on the weekends. They tend to be destructive by nature, and dont really care about societies rules. They do their own thing, and if you dont like it, "fuck you" is probably the response you will get. ALL HAIL METALLICA
Metalheads tend to swear, but not in a bad or distasteful way. They dont go "yo bitch get me a fuckin galss of fuckin water." They say "FUCK!" if they get hurt, and ask for a glass of water like a normal person would. By saying "Could ya grab me a glas of water?" Also, as a generalization, skaters are associated with Metalheads.

Get the Metalheadmug. A metalhead is someone with a "if you don't like me, FUCK YOU" attitude. Someone who lives eats and breathes metal, someone whos passion revolves around metal, in my oppinion, the true definition of a metalhead, is someone who respects themselves, and others who live amongst them. We as metalheas have no boundaries, and will not obey to your plain society, we are who we choose, and no one person or any creature can controll us or our oppinions we live as people of our own free will, and that will, is metal. May it live forever.
One day, my english teacher asked me," Why did you paint your nails black?"
I respnded with,"Because I'm a fucking metalhead and we will never die."
(later that day I got a detention...)

Get the Metalheadmug. Noun; A person into any form of heavy metal music.
Here are some types of metalheads:
Bob The Metalhead: Listens to mainstream metalcore and maybe some deathcore. Fans of more obscure genres act like he just ate their entire family.
Zack the Metalhead: Listens to black or death metal and think’s he’s the most cool and edgy person to ever exist. Yeah, those Mayhem PJs sure are threatening…
Gary the Metalhead: Listens to stuff like grunge and nu metal that went out of fashion decades ago. Doesn’t give two shits about what Zack thinks of him.
Peter the Metalhead: “I only listen to (insert obscure sub genre of an already obscure metal genre here), everything else is for posers!”
Margaret the Metalhead: Listens to metal from the 70s and early 80s religiously and thinks Black Sabbath is the best thing since sliced bread.
Carl the Metalhead: Listens to what he likes and isn’t an elitist asshair to others.
