Mohawk hairstyle
Men often wear [[brothel creepers]] or [[Dr. Martens]] [[boot]]s and shave their heads into high [[Wedge (geometry)|wedge]]-shaped [[Pompadour (hairstyle)|pompadours]] or [[quiff]]s, [[military]]-style crops, or [[Mohawk hairstyle|mohawks]]. The Sharks song "Take a Razor to Your Head" articulated the early psychobilly scene's code of dress, which was a reaction to the earlier British [[Teddy Boy]] movement: Teddy boys had long, strongly-moulded greased-up hair with a [[quiff]] at the front and the side combed back to form a [[Duck's ass|duck's arse]] at the rear. The Shark's song said: "When your Mom says you look really nice / When you're dressed up like a Ted / It's time to follow this cat's advice / Take a razor to your head". "Like most hairstyles of the 1980s, things were taken to the extreme. People [in the psychobilly scene] tried to get their hair as tall as possible and brought in streaks of strange colors."
