scene hair
Asymmetrical emo style
Scene hair is a dramatic hairstyle associated with the scene subculture of the mid-2000s, characterized by choppy, heavily layered cuts with long side-swept bangs covering one eye, teased volume at the crown, and often dyed in bold colors or contrasting streaks.
The look emphasized asymmetry and required significant styling effort: She spent an hour straightening and teasing her scene hair.
Though the trend peaked around 2006-2010, it remains iconic of that era's alternative youth culture.
