Flat tresses are not the only fashionable way to wear hair these days, and these sky-high hairstyles demonstrate that bigger is better. The larger the locks, the more attention daring hair-bearers are likely to receive.
The Mohawk is one example of what fashionistas are trying on for size. Not only used to signify subculture punk-rock, this style can evoke authority and style when put in the appropriate context. Another great style that many thought was long gone is the '80s backcombed hair for height that will make any hair-straightening passerby quiver with envy. If you are looking for a way to be noticed, these sky-high hairstyles are a great way to stand out and even add some extra height where desired.
