Outrageous skin baring outfits aren't the only way to get noticed during a night on the town, whether you're at Pure in Las Vegas or at the club down the street. If you want to break out of your boring hair rut and make an entrance worthy of an A-list celeb, there are dozens of ways to do it. Experiment with a dark Goth image, a wispy, playful emo cut, or create your own clubbing do. Here's a rundown of some of the wildest styles on the big city club scene.
Your imagination is the limit with punk hair. Worn with spikes, wild colors and Mohawks for that outrageous night out, the key lies in the cut, not the color. Usually short and spiky, punk cuts can also feature hair cut long on one side and short on the other or one side of the head shaved clean. The Mohawk and all its variations, including liberty spikes and the fanned hawk, in which the strip in the middle of the head resembles a fan, remains a favorite of adventurous teens and twenty-somethings.To add a crazy tint to your punk style, try brush-on colors with products like Streekers. Apply colors with a wand to the strands you want, then remove them when you shampoo. This is a great way to get multicolored braids or sections of hair without time-consuming or sloppy dyes or sprays.
Short HairThink about all those bright wild fashions in the "Austin Powers" movies-with hairstyles to match. The short geometric hairstyles made famous by models like Twiggy and seen on hundreds of dancers in TV shows, these simple, angular cuts are geared to bone-straight hair. Revisit them for clubbing by putting a modern twist on them, ala the Posh Spice bob.
Long hair works well on teens and twenty-somethings. Usually worn straight, you may add wave with curlers or a curling iron depending on the length.
Bouffants and Beehives
A 1950s or 1960s theme night at a club brings in all kinds of retro hairdos, including the bouffant and the beehive. Of course, the Amy Winehouse version is in vogue now, but the troubled songstress wasn't the first to perfect the look.
