Mohawk Hairstyles



The Mohawk has made a comeback. Men, women and children all love the look of the punk rock Mohawk. Most people are familiar with the hairstyle because it has always been thought of as a punk rock haircut. Many rock stars have worn the cut throughout the years and they continue the tradition today.

For those who have seen an actual Mohawk, there is no denying the look. Individuals create the look by shaving both sides of the head but leaving a single strip of hair that goes down the center of the head. This single strip is what makes the Mohawk. Some people spike the hair up and color it different colors. It is not uncommon to see spiked hair several inches tall and colored several different colors. This is what makes the Mohawk distinctive and fun. There are no exact rules for this hairstyles which is what makes it fun.



Today the Mohawk is just as imaginative. Many people do not wear their hair spiked but the signature strip down the middle and the shaved sides is still visibly apparent. Children wear this style, professional sports players and those that just want to have a little fun. The strip down the center allows individuals to do different things with their hair. Some people like to wear their strip real high and they may leave a lot of hair on the strip and create almost a hump. Though this hairstyle is generally seen in men some women are bold and daring enough to give the style a try.
