As the front man for guitar band Good Charlotte, he has something of a rock n' roll reputation to uphold.
And Joel Madden was showing off his latest attempt at an edgy look on Thursday, stepping out with a silver two-toned hairstyle.
The 34-year-old had just left the Andy LeCompte salon in Los Angeles, California with freshly dyed hair - black on top and the metallic hue on the sides of his head.

out of the Andy LeCompte Salon in Los Angeles, California on Thursday
The top tresses were trimmed, styled up and slightly curled to the right and provided a striking contrast with his shorn sides.
The rocker showed off his copious tattoos in a grey vest top, baggy shorts and trainers and clutched a bag of Wella hair products as he strolled through the sunshine.
There was no sign of Joel's two children Harlow, five and three-year-old Sparrow by his wife Nicole Richie.

Joel
replaced his previous platinum blonde side style with the metallic look
and has previously experimented with a bright purple colour.
Just recently, the brother of Benji Madden had blonde sides, and before that, the rocker went for a more vibrant look, rocking purple hair.
His wife, Nicole Richie hasn't been as crazy with her hair, lately sticking to a more natural reddish brown tone.
On Sunday, the two took their children to Disneyland to celebrate Easter.
