WHAT DID YOUR PARENTS SAY THE FIRST TIME U GOT A MOHAWK?

Well I think I am ready to get a mohawk, but I am finding it hard to get them on board with my decision. I just like the looks of mohawk! I want to know the first time you asked your parents and what was their reaction??

Guess I have some pretty cool parents. I could tell my mom didn't like the idea of me cutting it, but she went with me (had to watch my kids) and once she saw it she really liked it and thought it looked good. My dad likes it and calls it my anime hair.

Course my mom took me to get my first non-trditional piercing around 15, used to help me dye my hair blue in high school, and even watched me get my third tattoo. My grandma bought me my first hair dye for Valentine's day, aww. My dad didn't like my piercings at first, but let me get them because they could come out when I got older and came to my senses, haha... they're still in though :D He liked all my tattoos, I always thought it was funny he liked my ink better, maybe he just doesn't like the aesthetics of piercings, dunno.

Glad I have great parents, hope I can let my children explore life in the same manner.

My dad didn't care at all. Mom ranted about it saying stuff about ruining myself, asked if i wanted to be a guy and she said i was gonna make her cry. Don't know why it bothered her, she shaved my whole head once (was a punishment but still). I assume shes fine with it now.

Fortunately, my mum is used to me doing things that most people don't do, so the mohawk didn't really rank up there enough to provoke a reaction other than "you're almost 40!". When I was at university I had a multi coloured dreadlock on my forehead and the rest of my head shaved... I took enough abuse over that that I think I'm probably safe doing anything I like now without parents freaking out.
