10 Best Short Mohawk Hairstyles
Read on for our favorite short mohawk hairstyles for men:
1. Super Short Mohawk
Are you a young professional who still wants a modern look? Go for a short mohawk hairstyle that’ll work well in your professional life as well as your casual hangouts. To get a modern matte look to your mohawk, style it with Bed Head By TIGI Manipulator Matte Cream. Just take a small amount in between your fingertips as you work with the texture of your hair, styling it upwards or towards the side.
2. Slicked-Back Mohawk
For a cool look, try slicking your mohawk backward. It doesn’t need to go straight up! Use AXE Smooth Look: Shine Pomade and a comb to slick your mohawk backward. The pomade will give you tons of shine without feeling stiff or uncomfortable. We like that this look is paired up with an undercut, it gives a slick modern look.
3. Curly Mohawk
We love the look of this curly mohawk. So many mohawk hairstyles for men are focused on straight hair only. We think that a curly mohawk is just as good-looking as a straight hairstyle. You may want to opt for a slightly shorter cut for your mohawk if you have curly hair though. Longer curls may just end up looking like a regular long-on-top crop.
4. Piecey Mohawk
For a modern take on the ’90s mohawk try this piecey look. It’s still not stiff like the ’90s look but it does call back to the piecey effect. To get this style use Bed Head For Men By TIGI Power Play Firm Finish Gel. Because this is a firm finish gel you’ll only want to use a little bit of it on your fingertips. Just take your fingers and pinch together tiny pieces to create the look. It’s easy and super fashionable.
5. Mohawk & Quiff
We love when guys take two different haircuts and add them together to create a new look! This cut is a combo of the mohawk and the quiff. The mohawk is kept at a medium length that is super flattering. But, instead of styling it up like your average mohawk, it’s styled into a quiff at the front. The quiff is a good look to pair with the mohawk because it doesn’t compete with the mohawk, it complements the look.
6. Extra Long Mohawk
If you want to go all out for the extra-long mohawk look, try wearing it in this swooping hairstyle. This cool look is achieved by styling different sections of hair, instead of all of the hair at once. You can tweak and twist to get different sections of hair to stick up so you don’t have one solid mohawk line. This makes the old school mohawk look super fresh and cool.
7. The Teeny Mohawk
There’s no rule that says you have to have long hair to achieve the mohawk style. If you have short hair and want to try the look, this is proof it can work in your favor.
8. Mohawk and Beard Combo
Going for a look that turns heads? You can’t go wrong with this mohawk and long beard combination. This look is not for the faint of heart!
9. The Dread Mohawk
We have yet to see a style you can’t try with dreadlocks or with afro textured hair. Ask your stylist to twist your hair up to achieve this mohawk-inspired look.
10. The Pink Mohawk
If the mohawk look isn’t striking enough for you, you can up the ante by adding a bold color. Try pink to give your look a fun pop! If pink isn’t your color, this style also looks great in a variety of other fun and bold hair colors. Thinking about trying out one of these looks?
