Emo is a style related to a dark subculture however emos aren't Goths nor Scenes which most people confused them with.
The emo wording itself comes from a short–cut for EMOtional meaning emos are a more sensitive version of a dark subculture, aother misconception being that all emos cut themselves which is false, not everyone who considers themselves emo actually self–harm and another person who may hurt themselves don't consider themselves emos.
An emo is iconically known as follows:
* Pale skin.
* Black hair. or a dark shade of brown.
* Iconic makeup with eyeliner.
* Piercings.
* Black clothing with rarely any color. Most emos often wear green, pink and white.
* Iconic converse, leather boots or vans.
* Choppy and spiked in layers haircut.
* Choppy bangs/fringes on one side of their face or completely covering one eye.
Emos are exactly as above however not all whom dresses as such call themselves emo, but it's a to differ Emo from Scenes and Goths, one being Goths wear maibly black with little to no color, and opposite- Scenes wear more color.

Get the emomug. A word that has been given many meanings.
1. A sub culture in the category with punk, goth & scene.
They usually have black choppy hair & wear black, especially skinny jeans, they can wear colour & can have their hair a different colour, they prefer to be alone & listen to music (Genre: punk, metal, emo, ) All of these things are not limited & if an 'emo' says that they are then they are most likely a poser.
2. A genre of music, how I usually describe this is that it has guitar riffs, but instead of the usual edgy rock sound they sound more... soft...
Many people hate emo, many people defend it, many people are posers, many people don't understand,
emo is very mis-understood, & is not just someone who cuts themselves, it's a type of person, with specific unique preferences to the mainstream, someone different, & usually from my experience, people who carry out the emo style were previously depressed but got through it.
NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH scene
If you call a scene kid emo (or vice versa) you could very well offend them.
Of they could be sceno

Get the emomug. Emo is an abbreviation for 'emotive hardcore punk', or 'emocore', a genre of music and a lifestyle which peaked in the 1990s. Often used nowadays as a classification for people - typically teens - who listen to rock music, are introverted and wear black and maybe have coloured streaks in their hair. Occasionally used as an insult, though emos do not take this as an insult normally.
"Hey, look at him, isn't he an emo?"
"Oh yeah, he's wearing all black and burgundy and listening to Papa Roach."

Get the emomug. Likes dark clothes but doesn't always wear black. Don't always cut themselves. The title isn't always given by someone else sometimes they realize it first. Likes music a lot. Favorite bands are probably Mcr, FOB, P!ATD, and TOP. Almost always accompanied by a black hair tie on their wrist. Almost always seen in skinny jeans, a band t-shirt and beanie. Not completely friendless but usually only a few close friends. Doesn't usually care what other people think. Will wear pajamas to school if they want to. Emo isn't always a bad thing. Emo is short for emotional. Emo is also derived from music. Do not get them confused with goth or scene usually has eyeliner.

Get the Emomug. "Oh so you're emo then you cut yourself?" Jimmy asked stupidly.
"Emo means emotional distorted and cutting yourself just because you are emo is a stereotype and very offence to me and many others."
