Punk Hairstyles & Color Ideas
Overview
Punk hairstyles and color ideas are unique to each individual portraying the punk look. This look often starts with a dark base, which is then made funky by highlighting with bright, bold colors. These colors are added to hair in streaks, layers or to the tips for a unique punk look. The cut of the hair may be done specifically for punk style and coloring.
Step 1
Before coloring your hair with a punk hair color you must have a punk hairstyle. These styles are easily identified as they are wild, bold or exotic. Some cuts include cuts with different lengths, such as short in the back and long in the front, where other styled cuts may include jagged edges or bold layers for spiking.
Step 2
Cutting your hair into a punk hairstyle should be done by a professional. They can give you the best punk look for your face that will make your hair wild with a statement.
Step 3
Coloring your hair in a punk color is sometimes done in a combination of two colors or one solid color. The solid color can be a bold neon color that is unnatural, like pink, blue, green, yellow or white. Depending on how into the punk culture you are you can choose to use temporary colors that wash out, hair clips you can take out or permanent color that will last until your hair grows out.
Step 4
Punk hairstyles and color ideas are up to the individual portraying the look. One idea is to leave a long layer of hair in the front of your head then shave the bottom area of hair left over in the back. Take the layered long hair and dye it black first so you have a base color to work with. Add streaks of a neon-colored temporary hair color in thick sections that frame the face. This punk look needs no hair chemicals like hair spray or hair gel.
Step 5
Another punk look is the mohawk. This style has been made popular again by the punk culture all over the world. A long or short strip of hair sits center on the head while the rest of the hair is then shaved off. Using hair spray and hair gel, the mohawk is made to stand as tall as the length of hair allows. The mohawk then can be sprayed with temporary hair dyes of bold, neon colors.
