Devillock Hair

The devillock was created by bassist Jerry Only from the horror-punk band Misfits in the late 1970s. Only stated that he drew the hairstyle from Eddie Munster of the tv show The Munsters. Only can be seen sporting the do in promotional photos and at concerts and has never be seen without the famous do since the seventies. The devillock is achieved by keep the side of the hair short while growing out the frontal portion of the hair. The next step required is simple hair gel and styling to pull the hair forward over the forehead to keep the hair in place. The length of the devillock depends on the person’s preference, but the original hairdo went all the way down to the chin. The style is also popular throughout Asia and many fans of the Misfits. A similar style of hair can also be seen in emo and punk culture in the form of long asymmetrical bangs which usually cover one side of the face. The devillock hairdo, however, is more narrow and vertical, usually flowing down the center of the forehead and the bridge of the nose. When the strip of hair achieves a center down format that dives the face in half then you have accomplished the perfect devillock do.
