Emo Hair - There is a long story behing emo hair. I will tell it if u dont mind. Some random suicidal kid was to chicken shit to kill himself. So he was always telling the people near him how he felt. He let his hair grow long then one day decided to go get it cut. He sat down in the barbers chair and started telling his storys. The barbor after the first cut got tired of his crapie stoies so he gouged out his eyes with the sizors. The barbor continued to cut the boys hair blind. And that is how emo hair came about. :P

This article is about the style of music.Emo is a style of rock music characterized by melodic musicianship and expressive, often confessional lyrics. It originated in the mid-1980s hardcore punk movement of Washington, D.C., where it was known as "emotional hardcore" or "emocore" and pioneered by bands such as Rites of Spring and Embrace.
As the style was echoed by contemporary American punk rock bands, its sound and meaning shifted and changed, blending with pop punk and indie rock and encapsulated in the early 1990s by groups such as Jawbreaker and Sunny Day Real Estate. By the mid-1990s numerous emo acts emerged from the Midwestern and Central United States, and several independent record labels began to specialize in the style.
Emo broke into mainstream culture in the early 2000s with the platinum-selling success of Jimmy Eat World and Dashboard Confessional and the emergence of the subgenre "screamo". In recent years the term "emo" has been applied by critics and journalists to a variety of artists, including multiplatinum acts and groups with disparate styles and sounds.
In addition to music, "emo" is often used more generally to signify a particular relationship between fans and artists, and to describe related aspects of fashion, culture, and behavior. (Nope not emotional and crap like you stereotypes like to think)
