LOL, you know I didn't expect many to pick up on the 'Emo' thing, but at the same time know it IS big so kinda threw it out.

Yeah my daughter (long time Emo ...lol) a few weeks ago had a group of yanks shout out "Emo" as we was at Dreamworld ...lol, and now the boy has recently started wearing tight black jeans and asked me to do his hair like this!:



I must say tho. He in the UK was a 'cropped' kinda kid but over here long hair REALLY is all the rage and if you go to the local shopping centre on a Thursday night (Late night) which to the kids is 'go hang night' then you'll see prob 50% with long jet black hair! ...lol

Cool hair My son would love that I've tinted his red and then on another occasion blue/black, but that blue is fab!!!! must try to persuade him!!! sounds like I want it more than him!!!! ( I was blue and pink in my younger days LOL ) So the schools are fine about tinting your hair then?

LOL, well I personally NEVER tinted my hair, but the kids ALL want it done and with me on a hairdressing course, well it's all good practice! ...

As to the schools, well the school my kids go (UCSC) they're fine with it. I've heard from parents who's kids go to 'private' schools on the Gold Coast that it's REALLY a NO NO ... but as I say with my kids school it's not a problem.

All I know to be honest.
