hippiecore

When a teen or young adult becomes tired of their scene phase, and begins to conform to what they view as a hippie lifestyle. They listen to a mixture of psychedelic rock, folk, grunge, reggae, and indie bands while gaining an interest in psychedelics like shrooms and LSD. Unlike someone who fully transitions into the hippie lifestyle, there are still remnants of their old scene. They may start to emulate a stereotypical hippie appearance by dreading their hair, or trimming only their bangs for more of a Beatles style hairdo if their hair is short enough. Unlike hipsters, they generally have longer hair and rarely ever have undercuts. They still have some variation of scene hair, especially with how their hair is layered. If they are able to grow facial hair, they may do so, unlike in scene culture where clean-shaven faces are praised. They still wear tight jeans, though they are more likely to wear sweaters, shawls, sandals, boots, and drug rugs than their scene counterparts. Hippiecore kids prefer to dress in earth tones or colors that are not neon, though they may still wear black if they're going for more of a witchy look. They have similar styles of piercings as before including snake bites and stretched ears, but are less likely to use acrylic or silicone jewelry and will opt for natural materials. Eventually, hippiecore kids may fully transition into the hippie lifestyle, revert back into a regular scene kid, or may become something else entirely.
