1
Dye your hair black, if it isn't already. You can use a temporary color -- even a spray-on hair color -- if you aren't sure if you want to keep this look.
-
2
Apply a quarter-sized amount of hair gel to your hair. Comb your hair straight, and your bangs to fall loosely over one eye. If your bangs aren't long enough to do this, just do what you can to make your hair look straight and floppy.

3
Wear dark skinny jeans. For your shirt, wear either a band T-shirt from your favorite Emo band, or a casual button down shirt, untucked.
-
4
Put on a pair of skater shoes to complete the outfit.
-
5
Apply just a touch of black eyeliner beneath the eyes. Soulful eyes are important to Emo style, for both guys and girls.
-
6
Let your arms hang loose when the picture is taken. You can place your hands in your pockets, but make sure you relax with the pose. The less you look like you care about the picture, the more Emo you will look. Your expression should be solemn.
