Since its 2013 founding in New York, the event has eschewed alcohol and drugs.... The Daybreaker parties, which are planned ahead to remain consistent from city to city, don’t leave much to chance. Yoga is a staple, as is the green juice. But the vibe is often determined, explains co-founder Radha Agrawal, by “the nuance of the city.” San Franciscans like to come in costume. The Los Angeles edition attracts professional dancers, juice cleansers and yoginis. New York is more professional. And if D.C. is, well, D.C., Jackson and others argued that the inaugural Daybreaker attracted the city’s more outgoing denizens....Oh! It's the Thinx period panties lady again. We were just talking about her 3 days ago. Small world, no? No. Just the way PR recirculates.
“I’ve always been inspired by solving cultural and community problems,” says Agrawal, a sprite with a Skrillex haircut and vertigo-inducing platform shoes. Her other projects include Thinx (tagline: “Period panties for modern women”) and Super Sprowtz (a “children’s entertainment movement”). Daybreaker (“a tribal dance party experience”), she says, “was an audacious idea that could fall on its face, or it could maybe be the next yoga, the next spin class.”
If you're wondering what a Skrillex haircut is, here's an article from a year ago in New York Magazine titled "Is There a Not-Ugly Way to Grow Out a Skrillex Cut?" (Last sentence: "Step 1: Don't have done that thing that you did.")

Coffee Party!
Natalie Dormer had a Skrillex-style 'do for the Hunger Games movies. She just made sure there was enough hair on the other side to flip it over (part the other way) and cover over the not-shaved, growing-in part. I guess that's how you would do it.
I found some copy from another journalist in attendance:
'37 Type A, Gen X, Y, XX, XY young professional, mixed (white) urban adventurers perished on Wednesday, after attending a Yoga brunch coffee rave in Northwest D.C.'
'According to reports, their frenzied motions may have summoned and angered Olaf, the postmodern God of Global Multiculturalism.'
'Witnesses say the pansexual despot consumed them 'without remorse''
Hard to get laid at 0600...On the dance floor anyway. Better to boff the gal you met the night before...
"Daybreaker— a no-alcohol, yes-coffee morning dance party—debuts in Washington, D.C...."
Maybe they need more coffee or something. Fist-pumping while bobbing weakly up and down is not dancing.
That cut was common at my HS 84-87, but if we were doing that, it had to be invented around 1980. I was a late comer and did poofy short with blonde on top that came down in a v on the back of the head with close crop on side that were my natural brown. Not too crazy that my dad noticed and my dad already gave me the "if you EVER come home looking like THAT" speech.
I see Skrillex was born in 88.
This defeats the purpose of partying which is to get absolutely wasted, laid and dance like a maniac while snorting coke off a girl's tits.
I am Laslo.
God damn it, Alex, Laslo is YOU?!?
Of course there's a not-ugly way to grow out a Skrillex haircut:
Cut all your hair to a uniform length (so, bald or nearly so at the beginning of the process), and then let it grow out uniformly. Once it starts getting long enough to work with, make whatever non-ugly length adjustments you like around your head.
This assumes that you agree that a shaven scalp is not ugly.
Kill me now.
Please.
Immediately.
How do they know everyone is sober?
