Viking Long Hair Mohawk Style
Long hair can be tamed into a mohawk haircut fairly easily. You don’t have to spike the ends to create this look. Slick the hair back and let it fall like a ponytail down the back of the center of the head. A full beard sets off the Viking look of this natural mohawk..
All radical short and long hair hairstyles make a statement. One of the most unmistakable extreme hairstyles for noticeably longer hair are the mohawk styles. According to Wikipedia, a modern mohawk hairstyle is named after the indigenous Mohawk people, Native Americans who lived in the northeastern United States.However, the mohawk cut itself was worn by ancient people far before that. Mohawk haircuts have a wide variety of variations today: a long mohawk, a short mohawk, curly hair mohawk haircut styles, mohawk haircuts for wavy hair, straight hair, an Afro mohawk, a spiky style, an undercut mohawk, a mohawk fade, a buzz cut mohawk, faux hawk styles, a pompadour mohawk, and a modern braided mohawk.Let’s explore some of the different creative iterations of the modern mohawk haircut.
@abuklinAlthough the mohawk haircut itself isn’t particularly conventional, this is perhaps the most traditional version of the mohawk cut. Smoothly shaved sides and a narrow hawk define the template for this hairdo. The hair is spiked using plenty of product. This hairstyle doesn’t hold its appeal if it starts to fall.
@cbrunaisThis cool Mohawk haircut has spiky layers that are distinguished by their rainbow colors. Each section is clearly separated by its own place in the color spectrum. The mohawk is suitable both for thin and thick hair type. The hair on top can be styled in another popular style when you’re not wearing it as a mohawk haircut. The shaved sides make it even more dramatic.@kornelyabraidsThis braided mohawk-inspired hairstyle can be done with cornrows or braids. A wide section of long hair at the top of the head is braided into four cornrows leading to the back of this mohawk style. At the vertex of the mohawk haircut, the tiny braids are gathered into a ponytail, they create a cool style at the top of the head.
@chosen1_chazzThis subtle mohawk is not greatly pronounced at the back or on top. From the front, the style looks like a short afro with natural curls and a mohawk fade. The profile view shows the defined hair on top that extends in a kind of a curly mohawk with a burst fade. This is a great way to tame the natural texture of curly hair.
Regardless of whether you thought this was a great style on Brad Pitt, it shows that just about anyone can pull off a mohawk haircut. Moreover, short mohawk haircut styles can look very different from a rebellious straight hair classic mohawk, to a more subtle, tight mohawk with length along the top swept to the back and shaved sides.

@longhairmenloversIf you have longer hair without the shaved sides, you can braid the sides along the scalp to try on a great mohawk style. Leave the top section of your straight hair loose, add some extra volume with a texturizing product so that your cool look resembles a mohawk. You can turn such mohawk haircuts into their regular long style at a moment’s notice.
It doesn’t take much to keep your faux hawk and mohawk styles spiked when you have thick hair and keep your hair short. A high taper fade or a shaved head are much more predictable and popular styles, but this boys’ mohawk represents longer hair on the sides highlighting its uniqueness.@starbootysalonThe roots of this thick hair and a goatee are dark, while the spiky hair on tips is bleached dishwater blonde. The same tric is done on the beard, which creates an unexpected contrast along with a unique style for edgy appearance.
A tapered fade, a sharply edged hairline and a structured wave at the front of the head create a cool faux hawk hairstyle. The wave is echoed in the shaved sides design on the side of the head.@coiffeurstoryIf Elijah Wood had a mohawk haircut, he might look like this. A varied length keeps this from looking too perfect. Long sideburns can extend into a chin-strap beard or be shaved at the jawline.It’s no coincidence that Beckham’s hairstyle is often a topic of conversation. He is creative when it comes to switching up his ‘do. His messy fauxhawk with bouncy texture is easy to maintain because the sides aren’t cut too short. It just looks shaggy as it grows out.
Different lengths contoured in this black mohawk fade create beautiful imagery. The shorter length of the mohawk is easy to keep up comparing with the longer styles.
Blend real with illusion with this feathered wide mohawk.@elrafa26A medium-length haircut can be combined with a taper fade and a heavy beard for this fashionable gentleman's mohawk.It’s easy to put some product in your hawk and brush it back. This is how adults wear their hair to keep it in place, showing off perfectly tapered sides and an impeccably groomed short beard. All you need is to blow dry hair, sweeping it back with a round brush, and applying some hair mousse before.
To get this mohawk, leave a few inches of length at the top. The sides can be buzzed or faded. Use hairspray to get the height that you need. Brush your hair up gently as you blow dry it into position.
