My opinion of what a metalhead really is: a person who is a dedicated fan of metal music. And I mean ALL types of metal. Whether it be nu-metal, metalcore, deathcore, black metal, heavy metal, symphonic metal, death metal, thrash metal, Swedish metal, hell, even folk metal from different countries like South Africa.
You don't have to have long hair, wear black all the time, and whatever. Metal should be a way of thinking and a way of life, not who is more of a "true" metalhead because they don't listen to Slipknot because they are nu-metal and that equals fail. You should be glad they are listening to Slipknot which is some form of metal, instead of Fall Out Boy or something.
True Metalheads learn to appreciate ALL FORMS/SUB-GENRES OF METAL. Being glad that at lease they are listening to metal, and also teach the newbies who honestly want to learn new metal bands and learn to love Metal and at lease appreciate ALL of its Sub-genres.
Also metalheads should accept other metalheads from different backgrounds, whether race, color, creed, religion, culture or whatever country your from. We are one big brotherhood and we all love metal, and that should be good enough!
BE GLAD THE NEWBIES LIKE METAL.
Cause alot of us may have well started with those bands way back then.

Metalheads should be open to or have some sort of respect for the sub-genres of metal, because they all cam from other Heavy Metal bands. And one should be glad they are listening to some sort of metal instead of mainstream crap.
But it doesn't rule out you can nicely correct the newbies for their mistakes in the wrong genres for the band and so on.
They have to be corrected to learn.

Get the Metalhead mug.Indie Kids older, myopic, extremely bitter, twice as eltist brother. Usually nitpicks dumbshit about a metal band based on various reasons becasue they don't measure up to what they consider a "true" metal band is.
Dumb reasons like:
1. Too many views on youtube or album sales that surpass 50 copies, as well as being signed to indpendent labels that they tag as "too mainstream".
2. Easily accesiable to others to purchase their music. Places like BestBuy or iTunes really pisses these clowns off.
3. If they actually have clear vocals, not screeching like a cat trying to escape a blender.
4. They actually tour.
5. They have more than 12 fans.
But let's keep in mind that the people described above are only represent 20% of the metal community (the other 5% being the typical racist/homophobic losers) and the remaining 75% are actually pretty down to earth, cool, funny people.

Regular Metalhead: I cannot wait for the Blood Rush Tour this summer! Lamb of God, Black dahila murder, goblin cock, Dimmu Borgir and GWAR!
Regular Metalhead's friend: Me niether!
Metalhead douche: Are you guys serious? Who wants to pay $30-$60 to watch some mainstream bands perform in front of a bunch of posers?
Regular Metalhead: But they're on Indie labels...
Metalhead Douche: HA-HA! Don't make me laugh, they're on commerical indide labels (goes on babling tirade of pointless shit only his sad sack of shit ass cares about)
Regular metalheads walk away.

Get the Metaholic mug.People who listen to and respect ANY metal genre, whether it be newer bands like Korn, Slipknot, Bullet for my Valentine, Atreyu, or classics like Slayer, Pantera, Metallica etc. There is NO stereotype for metalheads, they're not always dressed in black, have long hair, are satanic, drink/do drugs, mosh, or go to concerts....these are all generalizations.
I'm a short, quiet asian chick who is currently wearing a pink flowery summer dress and heels. I don't cuss, I do well in school, never get into trouble, and I've never done drugs or drank alcohol in my life. Sound like a metalhead? No. Am I? Fuck yeah \m/
