Sorry but a lot of you people are being jerks. Weren't you teenagers at one point? And don't you remember the pain this sort of thing caused? Stop feeling superior because you dropped out of mommy's womb a few years before this girl and give her some advice.
If your parents' only concerns are his hair, his band, and this seeming incompatibility, then let them get to know him. If they learn that he is a good person, they will learn to live with the rest. If, however, he's been in trouble with the law, is significantly older or something like that, you need to understand that your parents are only looking out for you and you need to respect that.
Good luck to you!

I know this is duplicate, but so was your question.
You should probably talk with your parents calmly and find out what it is they do not like about him. They may be off target in their opinion, or they may be right on. As we grow older we develop a sense of people we meet. Sometimes parents get a feeling about someone that all they can say is "something just feel wrong about him". I don't have daughters, I have two sons, but I have had several young men I felt that way about that my son wanted to hang around. One of them ended up in jail for theft, and the other (God rest his soul) died in a fight over a cell phone. Another young man surprised me and became a very mature and responsible person.
So, at least give them a shot to explain their feelings to you. And then keep that information in the back of your mind. Cause even I know you will want to see him no matter what they say. But at least you have their feelings to guide you as well.
In addition to your new information, perhaps have him bring his guitar over and play a song that you feel your parents will like so they can see his talent. Also, ensure he uses words like yes ma'am, No ma'am, Yes sir, No sir. Too many young men now day's don't display proper courtesies when meeting the parents. And this is due to their own parents not enforcing it upon them.
Sounds like a cool guy. Hope he can gain your parents trust.

well most parents just want what is best for there children but they also have to relize that there children have to learn from there own mistakes. and besides if you like him that is all that matters it is not your parents that are dating him

Bring him over for dinner, that's if he's not too cool for that. Let him show them that he's not all that bad.
