A typical mohawk leaves a narrow strip of hair in the center of the head, running from the forehead to the nape of the neck. This strip is usually about two to three inches wide, but can be wider or narrower depending on personal preference. The sides of the head are then shaved completely or trimmed very short. The mohawk hairstyle has many variations, including the classic mohawk, the reverse mohawk, and the braided mohawk.
