Hairstyles are usually a way of showing off ones good looks. They are meant to enhance what you‘ve already got.
But when you want a jazzy and hip hop effect special punk hairstyles will do the trick.
They help one to fit in with the crowd at the same time they draw attention to you like a magnet. Whether the gaze is critical or admiring, there is no shortage of watchers with these hairstyles. They are preferred by the young jazzy crowd that goes to discotheques and nightclubs on a regular basis. The greater the splash, the greater is the attention one gets.
Hairstyles can be an asset or a major liability, depending on what effect one creates. But they are not irreversible. They can be changed to suit the personality, the age group, the crowd that one usually mingles with, and the place where one lives at. But the factor that determines ones choice of a hairstyle is peer pressure. With the view to be accepted in the crowd that you want to be seen with, one copies their dress code, including hairstyles. Punk hairstyles go best with hip hop outfits, body piercing and trendy tattoos.

A punk hairstyle that looks sexy and you are talking about this picture. This young woman has used blue and pink colors to get a perfect hairstyle of knots and curls to match her jazzy outfit.
The all Knowing Look

Terrible Twosome
The spiked punk hairstyles in these two pictures are similar in their concept of tattooed undercut, long bangs and large Mohawk like spikes on the top. Just the color combinations are different yet they look completely different and equally jazzy.
Purple Shorty
A purple tint for the hair itself is a punk hairstyle. When you trim it in very short spikes it becomes a classic example of punk art where hairstyles are concerned.
Superb Combo
A simple layered bob can become a piece of punk art with a Mohawk, undercut and bangs all rolled into one. This hairstyle is a classic punk style that goes with simple Ts and sunglasses or with jazzy hip hop outfits and crazy jewelry. It is a style statement that has always been around.
What You Will
This hairstyle is the epitome of a blend in styles. The long hair in layers clipped at the back and left over the shoulders is an common hairstyle till you notice the uneven spiked bangs. That, and the leather neck piece and the outfit combine together to give a punk rock appearance.
Punky Blonde
Let‘s not have a debate about this one. The long layered simple hairstyle has turned into a Mohawk like ponytail to one side. This makes a classic hairstyle into a trend setting punk hairstyle that is worth copying. The outfit matches the punk bombshell look.
Crew Cut and Eyeball
The scary tattoo around the eyes needs a punk hairstyle with the spiked crew cut look. The splash of red-eye shadow is just right to create a scary weird look that is desired.
Shocking Punk
Should we call this shocking pink or shocking punk? The effect is the same…of getting everyone‘s attention. The pink spikes all over the head are an equal match for the metal spikes of the leather neck piece and spell punk rock and jazz in capitals.
Forever
The hairstyle in this picture is a punk classic that has sustained the test of time. The Mohawk like frizzy hair at the top balances the simplicity of the hair tied at the back in a simple knot.

Splash
This pink-red dye looks unusually classy among punk hairstyles. The crew cut with the short spiked Mohawk makes it a simple yet trend setting hairstyle that suits the girl‘s face to perfection.
Undercut Mohawk
A huge bald patch that is undercut and an equally huge Mohawk at the top takes this blonde hair from simple to extraordinary. The eight rings in one ear make a crazy combo with the hairstyle.
Braided Mohawk
The curve of vibrant colors formed by the braided Mohawk in this picture is a trend setting punk hairstyle that might be worth imitating. It is an imaginative way to get the punk look although braids by themselves are very traditional.
