How to Style Scene Hair

Short Hair - Girls
Get some awesome choppy layers cut into your hair. If it is curly, think about having it straightened! Getting it razored can also look very scene too.
Dye your hair black or stark blond with streaks of other colors, such as bright pink or electric blue, any color that is crazy and will stand out. As an alternative, you can keep your natural hair color and get some lowlights/highlights that compliment your hairstyle. The most common hairstyle in the scene is either straight black or blond with black underneath.
Grow out your fringe and pin it to the side with Kirby grips or bow clips during the process.
Mess up the back with a little hair serum or, if you want a more boyish look, use gel to get a wet look. You might put some porcupine spikes in the back, as a suggestion.
Remember to lather, rinse and repeat in the shower to get rid of all that gel!
Get extensions if you'd prefer to have long scene hair.

Mid-Length Hair - Girls
Layer your hair and get it razored. Brown or black with another color in the fringe or back looks awesome. Blonde with pink streaks in can also be very fetching.You can also get other colors like green or blue.
Use hairspray and stay away from hair gel. Serum is okay, but use it in moderation. Use bow clips, ribbons - whatever suits you.
Remember to have it poofed! In other words, you'll be using lots of hairspray and maybe a little backcombing. Teasing is a good way to poof it up but only tease UNDER the layers so no one can see the knots.
Keep in mind that you'll be straightening your hair. Use a hot oil or similar hair treatment weekly, such as Aussie 3 minute miracle to reduce damage from all the hairspray, straightening, and combing.
Use conditioner every time that you wash your hair.
Use heat protecting serums when you straighten!

Long Hair - Girls
Trim your split ends at least every six weeks. This will help to maintain a healthy look. Long hair is very easy to make scene, although it needs lots of TLC.
Use conditioner and shampoo tailored for your hair type. If you straighten/curl, use proper protection.
Brush your hair daily. Also comb gently to get rid of dead hairs. If you are considering getting it cut, get it razored and layer it.
Dye your hair peroxide blonde with the fringes black or brown. This combination looks great on long hair.
Accessorize! Kirby grips, bobby pins, bows and ribbons look hot!
Tease Your Hair! Get short layers cut around the top of your hair, then grab each layer and tease it at the roots with a comb. Hairspray where you have teased. Try to do this to a few of your top layers and then flatten it a bit to get the oomph-factor!

Short Hair - Guys
Dye your hair black or blonde. Razor it, straighten it - whatever goes! The Oliver Sykes look is a good choice for short hair.
Consider black with a long fringe and red streaks. It looks amazing on most guys!
Avenged Sevenfold also has some groovy hairstyles. Check Out Johnny Christ or Zacky Vengeance and consider copying their gelled look.
Wash your hair thoroughly!

Mid-Length Hair - Guys
Dye your hair if you wish. Generally speaking, any color goes with mid length.
Avoid using hair gel! It doesn't look too great on medium hair.
Get your hair razored.
You don't need to use too over-the-top colors when dying your hair. Brown or black with blonde can look very good!

Long Hair - Guys
Do not dye your hair with over-the-top colors. Dying your hair with brown, black, or blond looks fine. You can even keep your original hair color if you like! Peroxide might suit you.
Understand that the key to long scene hair is simple TLC. Shampoo every other day, or every day, depending on your hair type.
Use conditioner and comb it through your hair when you shower. Try to let it dry naturally.
Get your split ends cut regularly.
Avoid layering your hair as it doesn't look too good. Consider getting your hair thinned out, if you do want a change.
Use heat protection sprays and serums liberally if you decide to straighten your hair!

Alternate Method
Spray your hair with a heat protecting spray to keep your hair from being damaged by a flat iron.
Plug in your flat iron for 5 minutes to let it heat up. While it is heating, you can apply your make-up or brush out your hair.
Clip all of your layers into a large clip, leaving the bottom section of your hair down.
Straighten all of the hair, and then let each section of layers down one at a time until you have straightened your whole head.
Once all of your hair is straightened, comb your bangs over to one side and straighten them into place.
Take the hair on each side of the crown and back-comb (tease) it.
Repeat for all of your top layers and spray into place.
If your bangs are not staying in place, hold them there with a bobby pin or cute clip.
Hair-spray your whole head, but not too excessively or else your hair will look greasy.
Go out on the town and let everyone see your cool new hair!
