How to Style Mohawk with Cornrows

Styling a mohawk with cornrow braids will be different depending on the style that is chosen. As with all cornrow braids, you need to plait the hair close the scalp. You can opt for different designs and styles when it comes to the cornrows.

The cornrow can continue throughout the hair to the ends, but some hairstyles will stop the cornrow braids prematurely to let the natural curls of the hair be the main attraction.
