I think that's it. It's a very metrosexual hairstyle at the moment here.

Metathron, you're from London? If so, you're probably know what I'm talking about. As I believe the typical Metrosexual men in Aust and in the Uk are probably very similar in terms of fashion sense.

There's a "Tony & Guy" Hair Salon over there right?

I'm just visiting London for a few months, but I do know what you're talking about. The metrosexuals over here have this preppy, light pastel colored look. Honestly, I don't know where the salon is, but I've heard of it. And, a bit off topic, but I'm Goth As Fuck now. Yippee for me.

I currently have a mohawk like Rozz Williams had. I also never got it to stand up because my hair seems to be too long. Ive decided that its just never gonna work for me so sometimes I put it in a Devilock (hairsyle done buy the guys of the Misfits.) I consider it a nice alternitive. Its pretty much a mohawk pulled down into a tight point over your face. Heres a picture of Glenn Danzig sporting his own devilock. http://www.kindamuzik.net/gfx/misfits-grp-0405.jpg

Hey Xng...Arthur had a mohawk last spring during the musical. It was pretty much the sexiest thing I'd ever seen.

I use to have a De Niro style hawk from Taxi Driver. But that was before I had to rely on looks to get a job. I miss that.

You had to rely on your "looks" to get a job?

It is about presentation. If you go in with a mohawk, will you really be hired? How you present yourself the first time matters, remember that appearences during jobs mean a lot and set the tone. With the jobs I wanted, I would not he hired with purple hair or liberty spikes. So in that sense I meant getting hired relied on my appearence.

And my "looks" counted towards me getting that job. Do you understand now? Perhaps I should clarify more sometimes.

Oh ok.

I know what you mean. I work in a business industry, so I have to dress very professional.

I thought you meant relying on "looks", as in on a more superfical level, in which you had to be "good looking", in order to get the job.

The best way to keep it up is to use Knox gelatin - this stuff is usually for cooking and can be found in any supermarket. Don't use knox is you plan on taking your hair down the next day. This stuff is real good for keeping your hair up for a week straight! Just make sure you get the roots real good. Use 1 cup of water to 1/2 cup Knox. Keep the goo in a cup of boiling water or it will harden fast! Good Luck!

Thumbs up

ok this is how you get any length of mohawk up and stay up if you go to a CVS or just about any salon you look for a product called bee's wax (no its not literaly bee's wax)
this shit will hold hair like super glue. and it easy to get out all you need is hot water (for the dumb ppl reading this not hot as in third degree burns hot just to where its not cold)
and shampoo and the shit comes out it doesnt damage or dry out your hair at all i have about a 7 and a half inch mohawk and that shit works like a charm so good luck

I also vote for the knox gelatin. You have to be careful with the mixture though, if it's not dissolved well, it WILL leave snot-ish looking lumps in your hair. For the last 2 years that I sported my mohawk, I worked at a lawfirm, so I liked to be able to use products that would wash out easily rather than keeping it up for days. I would put it up with this hairspray called "hold it". It comes in a bright blue and yellow bottle, and I've only ever found it at Sally's Beauty Supply. This stuff is amazing. It would keep it up, even over night after sleeping on it, but would wash out easily if I needed to the next morning. If it was windy or rainy, I would just put a little bit of gelatin on after putting it up with the spray, and it would hold great. I've since grown my hair out, but I sure do miss the hawk. I did have a great job though, the lawyer I worked for thought it, and my tattoos, were the coolest thing. I didn't have to cover my tattoos, and he even said on Fridays, which were out "casual" days, I could wear my hawk up. He even took an issue of a Savage magazine I was in to legal conventions he went to so he could show people what his "cool" secretary looked like. *sigh* I regret moving and having to leave that job.

I have a mohawk with the back shaved off, but the top and front are spiked forawrd and downish to give it a sort of mohawk/devilock effect.

Anyway, for clarification Danzig only had a devilock for like... a year... Jerry Only had like the basic devilock and Doyle's hair was by far the most fucking awesome.

http://www.renaissancefashions.com/a...rs-misfits.jpg

Mine looks like that except a bit shorter and with the sides shaved. Also, my hair line isn't receding so it only goes down to about my lips. Gonna get it cut up to the top of my nose tommorrow though... thinking of getting in dyed black and green or black and red. Friend Shamayel says she can do it really well... never dyed my hair yet.

Mohawks are a thousand times better than the way mama boys spike their hair.

haha, the wonderful chicken hawk! When I was in school (late 80's/early 90's), we called the actual haircut (when people had their hair cut like that, but DIDN'T put it up up) "skater cuts".
