Fashion couture companies have embraced the punk rocker look of the ’70s. Recent runway collections from Alexander McQueen, Burberry and more – spurred on by the runaway success of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo novel and its film adaptations – have been marked spikes, studs and black leather. The spirit of punk fashion is hard-edged and free; there is no pressure to put together the “right” outfit in this fashion genre. The more freedom one embraces while achieving the punk rock look, the more authentic he or she appears.
Punk rock fashion is all about authenticity. The punk movement arose in response to the harsh economic climate of the ‘70s, where the youth of the U.S., the U.K. and Australia were hardest hit, and is best marked by iconic bands like The Clash, The Ramones and the Sex Pistols. What resulted from this anti-establishment phenomenon in music was an anti-fashion statement.
It’s no surprise, then, that during an even rougher economic climate, with young people facing harsh unemployment rates yet again, there’s been a resurgence in the punk movement’s style. We’ve got a few ways that you can express your own punk rock affiliation beyond just donning a little leather.

Chopped Layers
A more sophisticated and chic form of the punk rocker hairdo is the chopped layer look. Ask your hairstylist for chopped layers, and he or she will know exactly what you mean. Instead of refining the ends of layers, a hairstylist will cut a more exaggerated diagonal layer. Getting a few highlights can also help you look like the ultimate punk rocker. Red highlights look hot on women with blonde or brown hair.

White Highlights
For women with black or darker hair, one way to create a rocker look is by adding white or grey highlights. White highlights have a very sexy look on women with punk rocker hairstyles. This is a more modern way to achieve a subtle punk rocker look that you can wear everyday.

The Short Bob
The short bob makes women look fierce and strong. The bob frames one’s face and makes any woman look chiseled, smart, and rebellious. You can customize this hairstyle in whatever way looks best for your face shape. If you have a round face, then you may want to get forward bangs cut. If you have a square face shape, then you will want to get a side-sweeping bang.

Shave a Little Off
Shave the back and sides and leave the top of your hair long. Or just shave down the back and leave the front sections. Or shave one side of your head and have cascading locks down the other. The punk movement was about doing all the things that the establishment told you couldn’t be done, so get daring and edgy and bold with your hair. Run with that one crazy idea you’ve always had.
Getting the rocker look is the best way to take on a bold, new attitude for 2012. 2012 is the year of your independence and freedom, why not look the part?
