Men’s fanned Mohawk hairstyles are based on the coiffure the Native American tribe bearing the same name. This style was also found on medieval Polish noblemen and prehistoric Celtic tribes. A fanned Mohawk is the most common style of Mohawk. To achieve a men’s fanned Mohawk, you first need to shave both sides of your head, leaving an approximately two inch strip on unshaved hair in the middle. That unshaven strip should be allowed to grow out as long as possible. One of the biggest maintenance challenges of a men’s fanned Mohawk is keeping the sides of your head razored down to a buzz cut while still keeping the line between hair lengths smooth and distinct.

Once your hair has reached sufficient length, you need to style it is a spiky, vertical manner. Men’s fanned Mohawks should extend in a straight line from your forehead to the nape of your neck. Your hair should stick out from your head at a 90 degree angle. The strands can either be separated to create a look reminiscent of Roman centurion’s helmet or they can be clumped together in distinctive spikes. As your men’s fanned Mohawk reaches towering heights, you will need to use a lot of product to keep your look together. Some people try conventional solutions with gel and hairspray, but you will soon find that they will not give you a full day’s hold. Instead you should try an adhesive product like Elmer’s glue, cornstarch, gelatin, or egg whites. Eggs whites have the added advantage of nourishing your hair as well.
Many people dye their men’s fanned Mohawks in variegated shades of blonde and red. Other people dye their Mohawk black and shave the sides of their head in a checkerboard pattern. With this outlandish punk style, the sky is the limit for fashion options.
