Emo boys can keep their hair long or short depending on the looks they want to achieve. If you have really short hair and want to have those hot emo looks you have been seeing around you, you will have to wait for a couple of months before you can style your hair the emo way.
During the period in which your hair grows, try combing it in the direction of one eye that you want to cover. Trim the fringe of your hair in the right shape to give it the emo look. You can use hair gels to spike your hair. First, you have to straighten out your hair. If you have curly hair, you might have to use iron or gels to do that. Hair gels and sprays can be used to straighten wavy hair.
If your hair is not black, dye it. Use different combinations of colors to streak your hair with neon and electric being the favorites. Try experimenting with different shapes and styles to get the emo looks for you hair and yourself. The emo hair is asymmetrical. The more asymmetric your hair is, the more you will appeal as an emo.
Wash your hair at regular intervals, whenever you feel it is dirty to keep it healthy. Use conditioners and moisturizers if your hair tends to get dry. After you have achieved your very first emo looks with your hair, keep it in shape and style with regular upkeep to maintain the emo looks.
