Title: thinking of doin what baldandre did.
Post by: Ghost1988 on March 05, 2009, 11:14:15 PM
but instead of a flattop (which i cant grow) ive always wanted to try to grow a mohawk. not one of those big spikey ones but a small one. i figured ide try it now while A). im still young and B). i still have enough hair to do it. my hairlines the perfect width for it haha.

i dunno. its a thought. im still going to shave the sides as usual. and im not gonna keep the look i just want to try it once before i lose my hair.

I'm not a big fan of mohawks but what the heck???!!

Be sure to post up some photos when it grows out.

Ghost you only live once, so give it a go. Grow the Mohawk while you still can. You'll have regrets if you don't. My bet is that you'll be back to SLY, faster than the time it took to grow it.

Ghost, give the mohawk a shot. I think they look cool, and you may as well do it while you still have the hair.
 
It's okay to try different things and change up your look. I do it every so often myself when I allow it to grow out and then keep it buzzed. I'm just starting one now.

Don't worry what anyone says or thinks. I know it's tougher for a lot of the younger guys, but you gotta do what's right for you.  Stay proud and confident.
You know that the shaved noggin is always there for you to go back to whenever you choose.    O0

I agree.  I've done a mohawk (short version) every once in a while, just to try it, because my receding hairline is just perfect for one!  It's good to have a change: but I always go back to sly after a week or so! 8)

xnew: why not post a pic sometime of how you look when you grow it out a little?  Be interested to see O0

(you too, ghost O0)

Ghost--go for it.  Now that you are young.  I never tried anything in my youth so now that I'm doing what I want, most people ask if I'm going through my old age crazies.

I think it'd be perfect for your hairline bro...and give you a break and option...YOU need...

the shaved mohawk (MUST be shaved though) and chin strap beard action...

cool look bro! O0

Any 100% is 20 minutes away at all times! ;)

I saw that you were gonna do what BA did and I got worried!   He's probably done all kinds of stuff that wouldn't be advisable!! :px
just kidding


But the mohawk would look awesome on you, try it out!

lol i was just sayin that cuz im not a big fan of mohawks myself but i figure since i have the hairline for it its worth a try. but if it doesnt look right ill just go back to sly without anyone even knowing. its no big deal. and since im keeping the sides sly anyways itll just take 2 minutes to shave the mohawk off lol.

ok so i just tried the mohawk thing and it doesnt really look right because im starting to thin on my crown so the strips really thin in that area so when you look at it from the side that areas like transparent lol. i only have 3 days of growth though so it wasnt much of a mohawk anyways. i might give it like a weeks growth and try it again except im guessing it would look worse with the thinning and all. whatever the case im going to take a pic and post it once i give it another go around.

If you want to try a mohawk, why not?   It'll probably take a bit more care than the bald dome, but if you're up to that, give it a shot.

Must admit, I decided to try growing a mohawk earlier this year.  I grew it about a week, then had to shave SLY again: couldnt stand the stubble.   8)
