Headbanging is commonly associated with the metal genres of music, but can also be applied to rock, and possibly even dance, if you feel that way inclined.
Headbanging has 2 main forms;
1)Vigorously nodding your head up and down in time to music. Though with some metal genres,it may just be easier to do it at your own pace, there are no speed achievements.
2)Quickly rolling your head around, not necessarily in time with the music. This works a lot better if you have long hair. Works very well with air guitar.
Examples of type one Headbang.

Two
Headbanging speed usually changes with the speed that music is being played. Breakdowns, a term used specifically with metal music, involves the band playing half time(slower than normal). This is a great time to headbang slow and long, so your hair ends up in your face.
Breakdown example:

Air guitar
Headbanging can be used in conjunction with the air guitar. More often than not it completes the effect desired.
Headbanging to rock music.
As rock music is not as heavy, the first kind of headbang is acceptable at any time. Air guitar can also be used here, though not necessary.
