Comments on here are fairly priceless - "Back in my day...", however, one makes a decent comment that at least "back in the day" you had to back yourself up, not a crew of lawyers, and sort of law of the land kept people in check.

I can't say I've ever been suspended from my school and I have a fairly large hawk (in my opinion anyway).

The worst I've ever had is A few dirty looks from one teacher and a few slightly disturbing comments from another.

when i was in school i had an issue with one teacher and she was always trying to get me kicked out. i had an 8 inch green libby spike mohawk she said "it could take out an eye." It went to the principal and he laughed her out of his office.

nah mah lil 8 year old cuz gt cloze 2 bein expelled 4 havin a 10 inch mohawk

I used to look like every other punk chick at my school back in the day. My teachers didnt mind. Every day I would get a friendly hello from most my teachers and average friends. Then I got my hawk and now not many old average friends stop to talk and some of my old school hard ass teachers dont stop and say hi except for my old science teacher Ms. J. She was a roller derby girl so she understood. But on the bright side I did get alot of nice compliments from the metal heads and older punk kids.

There is always a silver lining

my son starts school this year so lets see what they say bout his hair

see....almost everyone below is lucky....I LIVE IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA!!!!! HOME OF REDNECK HICKS AND COUNTRY DICKS!!!! THERE ARE NO PUNKS AND IT SUX!!!!! but yea....due to this. i constantly have problems with my school like"you cant wear your jacket because it has spikes init" So i say "ma'am..theyre studds..not spikes..english 77 half inch studds..rounded tips..not pointed" and theyll be like "your hair is a distraction" "OH AND THAT DUDE OVER THERE WITHPIG TAILS ISNT A DISTRACTION!!!THIS IS WHO I AM!!!" well..5 days of in school suspention isnt that bad..but..i got to wear the hair and jacket....hehehe

Alex what are you talking about! lol

You missed the Final Exams of School because of that Suspension thing and almost Failed for the school year lol
That would have sucked to stay in 8th grade again

I went to the local skating rink and I had my D.I.Y. Jeans and Vest,
and the owner said I couldn't wear them because they were "Ratty" and My vest couldn't be worn because of the studs..

At first I played around and said this is Racism! as a joke but then a cop came up and took a look at my clothes and agreed with the women..

I mean WTF? It's a skating rink not a church and I can't wear pants with one fuckin' hole? But it's ok they ruined it by putting in all these damn rules.. the only reason people go is because there's nothing here

shit im screwed at a private school where we all gotta look like zombies. only good thing about the school year is that i get time to grow my hair out. cant wait to get my white hawk ;D

My son was almost expelled from a private school for having a mohawk. It wasn't distracting anyone but the tightass jerks running that craphole!He was pulled from that school and still rocks his white hawk on a daily basis.

i got suspented from my secondary skol just before my GCSE's for havin a pink mohawk, their loss haahaa

I use to have a 9 inch lime green Mohawk I had the great idea to die my eyebrows green dam Principal tried to get my ass kicked out of school saying it was a gang sign.

I dont know about you but i FUCKEN HATE people who have either fo-hawks or chelsey hawks.. it seems like those people are just wanna-bes..i mean if ur gunna go thru the troble of making one.. then dont fucken half ass it.. actually GET a mohawk.. its rad.. u get alota attention and A LOT of compliments.. and if u like the weird looks and stares.. then DO IT.

DONT HALF ASS IT.

i have a chelsea hawk.......
its not any less hardcore than a mohawk,it just frames my face better.

haha, uhm, yeah, i have a chelsea. i dont see why anyone would 'hate' me becuase i have a chelsea hawk, and i didn't 'half ass' it, i was in the fricking salon for like 2 hours because the stylist had never seen, let alone done, anything like it... and i still get alot of attention, compliments, weird stares, and its still rad.

Anyways, my school won't say anything to me because I use my hawk to *their* advantage. at home football games I spike it and paint it up, all our coaches love it.

i got suspended from school for getting my lip pierced and refusing to take it out. why the fuck should i of? I had one teacher tell me that we couldnt have anything to do with individualism in the school because the "poor kids with the parents of benefits" couldnt afford stuff like that. Bollocks. Them fucking kids have to walk down the street looking at other people who have things they cant afford every day. fucking hell, im like it now!! the whole thing is absolute bollocks. they want kids nowadays to be confident happy people, but how the fuck can you be confident in yourself when your not even allowed to be yourself!!!

oh, and what the fuck is everyones problem with a chelsea? i think it looks rad.

fuck school man i didn't learn shit

when i got my first hawk in grade 7, i actually had no trouble with it at all. i don't think the teachers liked it but i was usually a good kid, didn't get in fights or anything. anyways i used to get teased by a few kids, but i just laughed it off.

as for my high school, i know they don't like them, and i have half a year left till i graduate, so im gonna wait about a month or 2 more till i get my hawk, and then fight them to the grave. iv allready told my parents that *when* i get my Mohawk i most likely will be getting sent home on a regular basis at the start.

when i put up my spikes they sent me home in five minutes because it was too extreme so i went home washed it out and tied t back so it looked like i have a short hawk

They seriusly have dress codes at some schools? Thats stupid

ooh are chelsea hawks just mohawks with bangs?

my school we have a dress code where you have to wear khakis and a collared shirt,no un-natural hair colors what so ever or 2 toned hair,and no un-natural hairstyles(including my mohawk)

when i got it i put it up for the day i went back to school from the weekend and I DIDNT EVEN GET IN THE DOOR and they bitched at me to go straight to the office. they made me wash it out in the bathroom! ><

BULLLLLLSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTT!!!!!!

when i first got my mohawk the school gave me endless shit, everyday, then it just died down, but i just recently cut into into a top chelsea, so i have some side strips, then my head is completely shaved all the way around,and it's long on top, one of the sides is died red, and theres a strip of red in the long part and my english teacher was just baffled and giving me shit about it, suprisingly my rotc sgm really liked it

The first day I wore my hawk down at my school the lunch ladies were talking about it one was like "your hair looks better today." "it's good to be different" "not that different" WTF? like i wasn't even standing there, can I get my water now...
