Corte mohicano: 15 formas de llevar el ‘look’ más rebelde
If we made a list of the most risky men’s haircuts, the Mohawk would definitely be in the first places.
Celebrities such as Travis Barker, Adam Levine, David Beckham and a long list of footballers , have adapted this style to their hair and personalities, setting a trend among men around the world.
Here are some ways to wear the Mohawk haircut today.
¿Qué significado tiene el corte mohicano?
This style became common in young punk subcultures in the early 1980s and was then adopted by many other groups, becoming a more diverse style. Its name comes from the Mohicans indigenous people, native to the current territory of the United States that was exterminated by the English in the colonial wars. Today, the Mohicans are still associated with the punk and rock subculture, but due to the commercialization of these subcultures it has become part of a more conventional fashion.
The mohawk or mohawk cut consists of shaving both sides of the head, leaving a strip of hair – as long as you like – right in the center, which usually extends from the forehead to the nape of the neck. By its nature it is ideal for all types of faces, especially round or square .
15 formas de llevar el ‘mohawk’
Mohican and beard
The juxtaposition of a bushy beard with a tall crest makes this wide, long mohawk even bolder than usual.

A short mohawk is a great way to soften and modernize the look of a mohawk . Although its look remains rebellious and exciting, its intensity is reduced to make the style easier to wear.

Not every Mohican cut should have a high crest and the one worn by David Bekcham is proof of that. As long as the cut keeps the principles of long hair in the center and short on the sides, it is a Mohawk.
Beckham sports the most requested hairstyle by professional footballers, as they can sport short and long hair at the same time. Depending on your taste and how you plan to style it, you can tell the barber how short you want the crest.
You can also choose to completely shave the sides or order them faded, as in this case. To get a hairstyle like that of the British footballer, you can use eGo Matte for men wax , which will give your look a firm, matte finish that will stay flawless for hours.
