Kids Orange Mohawk - Suspended Sigh

Its almost becoming old hat these stories of crushing individualism and pre-school teachers knowing more about how to raise a child than the parents. Still, the video link below shows a pretty rocking kid in a cool mohawk running and jumping around the house.. so that part is fun.…

Rock The Hawk - Washington Capitals Playoff Promotion

Not sure how this has slipped under our collective radars, but the Washington Capitals are doing a promotion called "Rock the Hawk" in their playoff games against the Flyers. There are special T-shirts by budweiser and a radio station giving away tickets to fans willing to shave a mohawk.

I am creating a group and photo album for this promotion, so if anyone knows of anyone who did this, definitely tell them about it and I'd love to see pictures and coverage of this event. So… Continue

Flames Mohawk it up in Calgary

Still seeing if I can find a picture of them all together but apparently 7 players from the Calgary Flames including the two team captains, shaved mohawks as they entered the playoffs. I don't watch a lot of hockey, but think I may have a team to follow this year.

Go Flames, Mohawks holding the Stanley Cup sounds good to me.

Long Since Spiked

I haven't put my hair up since that last blog post. =(

I haven't had a haircut either. The sides have grown out to an inch and a half. I need to get a trim, and re-bleach the middle.

This mohawk is the thinnest one I've ever had, it's about 2 inches wide... It's also approaching being the longest I've ever had.

I'm not sure how this is going to affect the Knox process of putting it up, but when I finally get the sides trimmed, I'm going to attempt making more of a gel… Continue

Healthcare, IT and Mohawks

Finally got around to re-designing and launching my personal site/blog.

Healthcare IT Consulting, Social Networking, Search Engine Marketing, Continuing Medical Education, ColdFusion at CheyenneJack.com

Yeah, thats a jumble of a mess of topics, and not at all related to Mohawks, but I guess we all wear a lot of different hats.. err.. hairstyles. Just figured I'd toss that out there in case anyone was interested in those… Continue

Secrets of members box revealed and more MohawksRock.com website insights

I have moved the members box to the top of the main page, so that more of us could show up there.

Looks like the max I can get up there is 27 people. Just so everybody knows, the site puts people up there based upon activity on their profile. I believe when you log-in and when someone comments on your page, it cycles you up to the top again. Just didn't want anyone think I was playing favorites.

I've also moved the activity bar up to the left, so you can try to keep up… Continue

Knox Gelatine How-To (from the mohawksrock forums)

If you've got a mohawk and need to spike it, check out the method I use. It's hard to find information about this kind of thing, so after lots of trial and error I've started working on this HowTo. I'll be editing it as I find out ways to improve upon it. I also will try to get a video HowTo, as soon as I can find a camera.

KILLER SPIKES: Knox Gelatine and YOU

For huge spikes, Knox has got to be the way to go.

The first time I tried using… Continue

Sweet!

Stop the presses!

So, I originally thought that orientation was today, the 6th!

IT'S NOT! It's on the 9th! I know, that's not a whole lot of difference in time, but still!

So I went ahead and got a wig (It's awful--and for $12, I'm surprised I got that much!) to use for orientation, but I'm still holding out for a miracle. There's a much nicer one for $40, but my issue was originally time. Now that I know I have SOME time, I'll go ahead and order it--I'll have… Continue

Kids with Mohawks - Victims of Adults with Low Self Esteem

Ah yes, yet another kid has been kicked out of the classroom for being "disruptive" by doing nothing more than having an individual spirit and a mohawk. At least this time he was 2 years older than the 4 year old they booted in another school.

He was warned several times that if he did not "conform" then he would not be "educated" with his classmates. When did the low self-esteem, individuals-are-bad mindset of a brainwashed robot "adult" come into a position to say who… Continue

Knox - Day 4

It's day 4 of having my hawk charged with Knox using the method I described in the forums.

On day two, I used hairspray on the base of the spikes to reinforce.

After that, no touch-ups.

From the pics, you can see what happened with using blue food coloring in the Knox mixture. It just made it look like I went swimming a lot. Next time, I will try half the water and double the food… Continue

The Day After

The food coloring made the consistency of the Knox mixture a little too watery, and my bathroom got so messy from it. I think, if I use food coloring, I should use MORE of it, and not use as much water. Also, I used blue food coloring, and by the time the hawk was up, my bleached hair was more of a pukey light-greenish bleached-type hair. Not blue.

In short, adding food coloring to Knox gelatine is messy business, indeed. I'd almost rather never try it again.

But I… Continue

Tonight's Spikes

Tonight I'm attempting to use my soon-to-be-perfected Knox routine, but I've added about 25 drops of food coloring to the mix. We'll see how this turns out.

Hairspray for cattle and livestock - Prime Time Adhesive

I made a journey up to see my cousin Brian's beautiful Montana wedding this summer. While up there, I was talking to his brother Todd about my mohawk and the different techniques that I have tried. During this conversation he mentioned that while working up on a ranch last summer they used a product that was basically hairspray for cattle. This intrigued me, and he called up the next day with the… Continue

Well...shit

Ah damnit...I knew it was coming...So, I got rehired at Six Flags: Great Adventure. That's great! I love working there, it's a lot of fun, and the pay's decent. The downside? Effin' "Appearance Guidelines" set by corporate. I'm usually like a lawyer when it comes to my hawk--I WILL find a loop-hole. But I checked and looked, and wow, there MUST have been someone before me that tried to get around it!

Thing is, even my supervisor, Aimee, wants me to keep it. So I asked if she could do… Continue
