Nowadays tribal signs like tattoos and hair cut or hair style are quite popular. At its origin, Mohawk hair style was created by tribes called Mohawk which lived in the region of the Great Lakes. A hair lock in the middle of their scalp used to suggest that they are on war with other tribes. American Indians used to have this hair style as well.

Sometimes American Indians left their natural hair color but other times they colored it in different shades of yellow or orange, suggesting sunset which might have a deep meaning for them.

Nowadays Mohawk hair style can be combined with punk one, and the idea is to obtain the nicest spikes, with any means, it doesn’t matter if you use glue or soap, hair spray or egg whites. Maybe the initial meaning of this hair style was: “Stay away from me, I’m spiky and furious!”, as it is said that native Americans used buffalo grease to obtain Mohawk spikes before going to fight.

As far as Mohawk styles are concerned, we can talk about liberty Mohawk which has been inspired from the Liberty Statue spikes. Furthermore there are Mohawk hair styles which are fan like, or tri hawks, featuring three hair locks, on both sides and in the middle. As Mohawks were used to intimidate enemies, nowadays there is a Mohawk hair style called Death hawks and it is worn by Goths, gangsters or rockers in order to prove that they are separate entities in this society and that common people should fear them or at least avoid them.

If you want to look like a modern warrior, you can spray volume mousse on the hair immediately after washing it and then you can dry it with the hair dryer.
