Could you explain to me what 'looking gay' means please?

I guess if you went and had them done cheap they could end up looking a mess.Certain hairstyles are worn to show the kind of lifestyle the person lives,like a rocker or a skater etc.When I think of dreads I think :rasta: or sometimes grunge.
