10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
As someone with 77% Mayan and native blood, I find it really fucking offensive that a Mohawk is deemed inappropriate. It's literally one of the most accepted hairstyles in my culture.
I could see it being maybe a problem since the company sells food, depending on how large a mohawk we're talking. Not like it isn't easy enough to set a height limit just so it still fits in a hairnet.
I know damn well I'm not the only one that would actually be put more at ease if the guy selling me a car or whatever had dark teal liberty spikes and a nose ring. It would make them much more human and personable than "smiling snake in a suit," and therefore I would be more likely to have a favorable opinion of them and maybe buy something.
There's also nothing that says you have to actually spike your hawk up every day for work. As you noted, there are plenty of practical reasons not to when you're working. Most people I've known with substantial hawks only spiked it up in their free time. One guy I knew only did it when he was going to concerts.
It takes a lot of effort to get liberty spikes to set. And then you have to maintain it. I think it's been close to a decade since I last put mine all the way up into spikes. It's just not practical.
