Emo tips 4 my friend? im 15 too
i went through my emo phase in 7 grade...
but like your in high school no one cares enough to call you anti-emo and also your just making a fool of yourself by making yourself something you are not. i have nothing against any stereotype its just the people who try to look emo end up looking cheesy and foolish.
if you really want to look dark but not cheesy i'd go with black converse, black skinny jeans a flanel shirt or wear dark colored h%26amp;m hoodies. i wouldn't take it much farther then that. you can cut your hair short with angles. and wear black eyeliner but not to much. to much looks trashy.
anyway i hope this is just helping you be yourself a little more instead of trying to hide behind a stereotype.
Emo tips 4 my friend? I know this is long but read it
thins you will need
Eye liner
Mascara
Powder
Black makeup
Eye shadow
Base/Primer
If you want to get an emo styled look with your makeup, there is a specific way to put it on. Follow these steps and you will look emo in no time.
Take your emo eyepaint or eyeliner and apply it carefully on the bottom of your eyes. Make sure you get close to the lash line. Start on the inside corner of your eye and make a thin line going to the outside of your eye.
Apply your eyepaint/eyeliner in the same manner on top. Try for a rounded edge on the outside corner of your eye.
Apply a healthy amount of eye shadow to your eyelids after the eyeliner has dried.
You can create a shadow effect by applying a thin amount of a dark coloured eye shadow all around your eyes.
Apply one coat of black mascara.
If you want to, use foundation in a tone slightly lighter than your skin tone, or your own skin tone.
Put a tiny bit of lipstick on. Blend it well into your lips and blot some off for a tinting affect.
Don't overdo the makeup- you may look like a poser.
Quick note: If you have a very light skin complexion and maybe even darker eyes, you may want to use like a dark brown (close to black) and/ or a crimson color. This will not be to harsh on your skin tone!
apply colored eye liner under your black; use eyeliner on top lid too.
Eyeliner
Doesn't have to be black.
Should not be ringed around your eyes.
If you're going to try liquid liner, you might just want to skip to emo eye paint instead. If you don't have access to emo eye paint, try just using liquid liner instead.
Go easy on the eyeliner. Put enough on where people know you have it on, but don't look like a raccoon.
You can use the same process with kohl or an eye pencil instead of emo eyepaint or liquid liner
Eyeshadow
Try consulting with a makeup artist before selecting a color.
Make sure your color goes well with your eyes.
You should try new colors like dark green or midnight blue.
Using Powder/ Foundation to Lighten Your Skin Tone
Your face doesn't have to be covered in powder.
Don't use a foundation four shades lighter then your skin tone. While pale skin is stereotypical, look healthy.
If you want lighter skin, try using foundation one shade lighter than your skin tone.
Lips
Lip color shouldn't be too dramatic.
Try smudging a little purple on your lips, not coating them in black or red.
Consider ditching lip colors and gloss all together in favor of chap stick.
Avoid lip gloss - shiny is not the way to go
tips
Apply makeup in a reasonably bright light.
Look at other people's makeup to get ideas. Never use their makeup ideas as your finished product!
The emo subculture is extremely cool, it's only natural that you're trying to get the look. Everyone knows a true emo's strength and status is in their hair. This article will give you the basics and norms of emo hair.
how to do it
Grow your hair out; the front and side parts so they cover a good portion of your face. Some people grow out the back. If it's short in the back, you can spike it up with gel, but this looks tacky if it gets too long.
Layer your hair. Get long layers about half way down your hair, and short the rest of the way up. (If you're a guy don't worry about layering your hair, unless you want to.)
Straighten your hair, with either an iron or gel. If your hair is wavy, just use hairspray/gel to weigh it down. Or, you can use what are known as 'emo weights.' Not being the actual name, these clips come in difference sizes and different types for different purposes, but actual go under a layer of your hair to weight it down. New types exist that do things such as hold it up, or spiral it.
Dye your hair black and maybe add some red or blonde streaks.
Flip your hair upside down and blow-dry it. It doesn't matter if it is dry already, the heat just accentuates the layers in your hair.
Accessorize your hair, once you're happy with the color and style. Bows are always your best choice, along with other funky hair clips. Don't forget the eyeliner! Girls can never have too much. If you're a guy, ditch the eyeliner and forget accessories.
Leave your hair just everywere like it is in the morning. Mostly works great! If you have short emoish hair you may want to spike it or just mess with it after your morning shower.
Emo tips 4 my friend? One common misconception is that you have to be pale to be emo. That's going more towards goth. I'm not so sure about the emos at other schools, but the ones at my school wear Billabong, Pacsun, and Hollister. Hot Topic isn't a must, but if you like the style there, then get it. Try to mix lots of black and bright colours.
For makeup, once again, black and bright colors. If you use pink on your eyes, then try to find a LIGHTER shade of the same pink (like the same color when its in the tube, but it doesn't come out bright on your lips). It contrasts well and puts your face together ^.^
Your hair can be anything you want it to be, but you should have bangs. It used to be that you had to have cheap, black dyed hair that was stiff from all the peroxide. But I've looked around and it seems to me that you can do just about anything now.
Hope I helped~%26lt;3
Oh, and by the way, to some others that have replied to this question so far, if you're just going to be rude, then don't say anything at all. Most of you would never say that to anyone in real life, so why say it online?
She just asked for help, not to be ridiculed.
Emo tips 4 my friend? Make up:
-Try to go on the thicker side with black eyeliner
-line both the inside of the lower lid, right under the lashline, and right above the lashline on your upper lid.
-wear eyeshadow in colors of red, pink and black
Hair:
-you can have hair at any length but make sure you have a long fringe in your face
-I reccomend a fringe that goes below your chin
-chop it up, layer it, and razor it
-do the haircut yourself. It actually turns out more emo looking because it will look less polished.
-fashion
-only skinny girls can get away with skinny jeans. She should stick with bootcut, moderate fit, black jeans
-wear moderate fit, black band t-shirts. Also, try some with cool graphic designs and/or random slogans
-wear converse style shoes. I don't recommend converse because its overpriced and uses sweatshop labor. No Sweat Biensters looks just like converse and is higher quality, lasts longer, is produced without sweatshop labor and is a hell of a lot cheaper. www.nosweatapparel.com
-try getting cool wrist bands and armwarmers. You can make them out of old long sleave shirts and sweaters.
-wear fingerless gloves. You can just cut off the fingers of old gloves.
-shop at thrift stores. They often have really cool and original clothing.
-American Apparel also sells some really emo girl clothing
