For the historical side of the punk look, there isn't a lot that you can do because it's called a historical look for a reason. With these ideas, I have to take into consideration that I'm working on a wig, not a human head. This means that I'd have to do a hairstyle that would be suitable on a wig so that way, you don't see the connections where the synthetic wig connects. Here are my chart ideas;
This is my first historical look. It's a classic, straight mohawk. This was the most popular hairstyle to have back in the punk days of 70s/80s. This style will include all the hair, and it will finish in one point at the end of the hair. Normally, the hair on the sides would be shaven, this isn't possible on wig, so it will look a lot fuller than the historic ones. I really like this look because it's all about the structure and foundation of the style. As long as that stays up and is done well, the hair will stay and that's the main challenge of a punk hairstyle.
My second historical look is of Liberty Spikes. This was the second most popular hairstyle of the punk era. This involves spikes all over the head in random areas. The outcome of this hairstyle is really cool, I think. However, it can be hard to get all the hair into the points with it not looking thin. As amazing as it looks, I don't think I'll be creating this look on my wig as it would gape and show the connections within the wig too much.
This hairstyle is called a Duo-Hawk, and it is formed of two side mohawks. It's also known as a reverse mohawk, normally, the middle section of the hair would be shaven too. This style would have a very firm and straight middle parting, to resemble the shaven section of hair. This is my lest favourite look I think, as it reminds me more of horns than mohawks.
Out of all my historical looks, I went with the first option of the classic mohawk. I wanted to stay with the main historic look as I didn't want to stray from it being classed as historical.
