Faux Hawk

Definition: This is a basic tapered haircut in which the hair is styled into a point at the center. It resembles a Mohawk, but without the shaved sides. The style can be worn as a Faux Hawk or styled differently for a conservative look. To achieve the look, apply a small amount of paste or pomade to the hair and comb back. Smooth the sides of the top forward, leaving the middle portion sticking up.
