Yeah, Mohawk need structural strength, like gel or egg whites. That fluffy look can only be achieved with hairspray. And the fluffing turns out into a bomb, like creamer powder thrown into a camp fire.
It's like comparing diesel to gasoline
I tell you what, I'm 50 years old, and there is to this day nothing sexier than a big hair metal mop. If I could wave a magic wand and bring the Nikki Sixx of 1985 back to me and subtract the heroin and all the other terrible things, dude could get me.
As someone who suffered through the 80's as a kid without participating in the madness, other than being forced to wear neon colored clothing, I can't underline this enough.

I did as well. I did love everything glam metal. The smoking and child neglect I could live without.

Idk man I like having an ozone layer.
This could probably be done with hair gel though
BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

I think the word is flammable.

Especially in the 'we smoke more than we breathe' era I'd say the word is explosive.

I remember a girl with a giant Mohawk I went to school with telling me she just used a lot of gel, and sucked it upwards with a vacuum cleaner.

I yearn for the days when a man was judged by the size of his hair. Except Reagan, fuck Reagan.

The 80s were the stupidest period of fashion of all time.
