mohawk发型是头皮剃光，只留一长条竖起的头发从脑门穿过头顶直到脖子的后颈。而faux hawk是2边不用剃光，只要梳理重新定型就可以模仿mohawk的外观，把2边头发往中间梳并打上发胶，使中部竖起。通常faux hawk的中间部分比传统的mohawk短。faux hawk是faux和hawk的混成词，faux是法语false的意思。faux hawk起源于80年代的朋克场景，是一种嘲弄，表达了对真正的梳mohawk发型的前卫者所传达的社会符号的反对立场。faux hawk因为球星贝克汉姆而流行起来。例句：

The person who probably did most to popularise the fauxhawk was David Beckham, back in 2002.

为推广“仿莫霍克发型”做出了最大贡献的那个人可能就是2002年的大卫·贝克汉姆。

Mohawk莫霍克发型

The Mohawk style originates from a tribe of Native Americans called the Mohawk by white settlers. Although, to the Mohawks, creating this haircut was itself part of an important ritual (each hair was plucked out), it became fashionable with the punks of the late seventies. It involves shaving all of your head, but leaving a narrow strip in the centre. This is then spiked upwards, often to impressive heights.

莫霍克发型起源于美洲的一个土著部族，该部族被白人殖民者称为莫霍克族。虽然对于莫霍克族人来说，梳理这种发型本身只是一个重要宗教仪式的组成部分(每根头发都是被拔掉的)，但它却于(20世纪)70年代末在朋克人群当中流行开来。该发型需要剃掉你所有的头发，只在头顶中间留下一窄条头发。之后，把这些头发向上竖起，而竖起的幅度之大往往是惊人的。
