The Fauxx-Hawk: Get the Look

The Fauxx-Hawk
This is what the "typical" do looks like. To get this style, use Form by MiN New York.

Tricky Straight Hair:
Some guys are blessed with thick straight hair which often grows straight out as well, trimming the sides to the right length is important. Like in this photo, the sides are trimmed short but not too short and the top is proportional making the whole hairstyle more symmetrical. To get this style, use Define by MiN New York.

Make some waves:
Even if you have wavy hair you can still get away with a hairstyle like this. It just might require putting a little more product or a stronger product in your hair. Try mixing Substance with Form by MiN New York.


Conservative/Clean:
The top is somewhat short which would allow you to comb your hair to the side should you want to style it differently. To get this style, use Form by MiN New York.

Dreadlock Hawk:
I love this African American faux-hawk hairstyle. With thinner dreadlocks, like in this photo, its an easy hairstyle to achieve with a little dreadlock wax.

When David Beckham first popularized the faux-hawk, this is what it looked like. Very short on the sides and a more pronounced "hawk" on top. This is definitely a little more edgy.
Here is a side view of an original style of faux-hawk. The sides and back are trimmed very short, but in this example the "hawk" part is only on the top. To be true to the original it would have run all the way down the back of the head, emulating a real Mohawk.

As the faux-hawk "matured" so to speak, it started to take on many interpretations and iterations. This more grown out version is one of our favorites.
