If I was one of the metalhead guys you talk to, I definitely wouldn't be ignoring you. I am a metalhead (although I enjoy pretty much everything other than Top 40 autotune garbage and country twang), and even though I am on a university that is 61% female, it seems like there is literally nobody who listens to metal AND is single AND has a good personality to go with the good taste in music. I want to be in a relationship where I can share my music with my partner, and vice versa, because so many people around seem to dismiss metal as (and someone actually just told me this a few days ago), "Unintelligible God-hating bullsh*t."
Perhaps part of the reason why I've been single for virtually my entire four years here is because I am too insistent on a partner's music taste. The sad part is that so many people here listen to sh*tty bands like the Black Eyed Peas and Little Jon and all sorts of autotune crap that it becomes a hopeless pursuit of futility. Hopefully my semester in Finland will change things for me, because Wisconsin isn't exactly a hotbed for metal.

as long as you're kind and friendly, you have a chance with any type of guy. I'm a metalhead myself and I currently have a crush on a girl who's into making clothes, flowers and listens to anything that's being played on parties. It doesn't really matter how you look, what you do or what music you listen to. Just be yourself and you'll get there if he's really worth it and is the one for you. On the ignoring part, try to talk to one of 'm face to face, not in a circle of his friends and also try to talk a bit about the music itself like "have you heard the new [band name here] album?" Warbringer and Anthrax have a new album and Megadeth and Metallica are coming out with new ones as well, try those :)
Music does not make the man.
Each guy has different tastes.
The dude I'm into is a metal head and I'm not. I love metal music, but equally with other genres. Having music in common is great (gives you something to talk about and share) but in comparison with the things that matter (chemistry, humour, intelligence, etc) it is somewhat irrelevant.
I guess if you want a guy with the same taste in music as you, you should talk about music. Engage him in a conversation and hopefully he'll like the same bands as you (metal heads are often music snobs). Other than that, not much you can do.
That's funny because my ex used to be a metal head and I hated heavy metal. It worked out because I guess he thought I was really pretty and I had a good personality. Just don't try too hard.

Considering that metalheaddom is a overwhelmingly male dominated social group- seriously, its bizzare, whatever the age, back in school, in metal pubs, etc...- pretty much anyone.
A normal girl who is into the same stuff as them would really be a huge plus.- u
I'm really into metal music as well, but I do like girly-girls. I'd probably laugh a bit, "SHE'S a metalhead?' and then think about asking her out (if I were attracted to her, that is).
Bro I’m a female and my best friend is a Metalhead, he’s awesome and I’ve never seen him angry, not once (I’ve known him for about a year now) Don’t judge Metalhead’s for what other people claim they are. Metalhead’s are actually one of the most caring and sweet types of people I’ve ever met
umm that's why they have guy friends... they don't date girls just for their taste in music..
I don't know. I happen to like girls with tattoos and some attitude. But I'm also not ridiculous. If the girl is attractive, as you are, I'd still be into her.
Maybe you should start the conversation off with metal music.
I would love to be able to talk to a girl like you who enjoys metal. However, a lot of metalheads are antisocial, so that might be you're problem there.
I use to be a metalhead? But I don't know I'd take any pretty that would of accepted me.
