One of my most favourite hairstyles for men has always been spikes. It’s a very underrated hairstyle that not a lot of adult men have the guts to pull off. But the short spike is a whole new beast. It’s, in fact, better than the long spikes.

When hair is cut short and it’s no longer than the first line on your index finger, then you have enough hair for short spikes. Short spikes are characterized by raising your short hair with gel in a spiked style.

This is a very stylish hairstyle that is perfect for short spiky hair and does not require too much prep time.

Well we’ve all seen the Mohawk. To me personally, the Mohawk has been a hairstyle that is super out of bounds. Why?

I don’t want to stand out from the crowd so much. When we think of a mohawk, we think of a punk rocker with razor-sharp spikes that is dyed pink. But that is doing injustice to the mohawk.

The mohawk is much more. You can get a short mohawk, which is basically, hair on the top that is centred and everything else is cut.

No spikes, but just a stretch of hair. This is a super neat hairstyle and makes a man look really good.
