Well put, we are all notorious masturbators.:lol:

Correct.

[QUOTE]I've got it!! Pohawks. A term used to describe mohawks that don't go down the back of the head, to the neck.[/QUOTE]

Mostly over here they're called fauxhawks.

[QUOTE]Buttons? You mean badges?[/QUOTE]

In America, those small badges are often called buttons.

[QUOTE]I'm pretty sure that they're called Moheicans (sp?), or at least in England, anyway.... but I may be wrong... Moheicans might only be quite short... Bah, Pohawks will do nicely.[/QUOTE]

Some people in England (including me) call them mohawks as well. Just seems quicker than calling them mohicans, and most of my friends call them mohawks.

Fauxhawks are when people (only douche bags do this. They usually wear pink shirts with a popped collar.) gel their hair into a mohawk shape, without actually trimming any of their hair. They just push it all in the middle. Totally ghey.

And, I think Mohican might actually be the correct term for "pohawk". I like pohawk better though.

I tried making perfume like they did back in hell knows when by boiling rose petals. It was a nasty disgusting mess so I think I am not too good at it.

It was for my science teacher. {:)

This is a reply to making shampoo. Be careful!

Haha. That discription is so well...

Some of my friends dress like that :upset: So not punX

It's common to see fauxhawks in urban areas, and especially in night clubs. It's a popular urbanite apple-using hipster 'do.

I like it.
What I do for DIY'ing is I get an A3 piece of paper (perfect size for t-shirt) and draw something that's going to look good in just black and white ie. my op. ivy t-shirt. Then I cut it out, place the paper on top of the t-shirt and paint on the image (with fabric or permanent paint). The only downside is the time it takes to cut out the image but it decreases chances of fu<king up

The stencils I make are with paper card or cardboard, though cardboard is really hard to cut details through, even with my trusty exacto-k-nyfe.

I use a really sharp kitchen knife. Trying to cut out the hair on the skanker on my t-shirt took ages!

Invest in an exactoknife. They're like 2 quid (£1.99) from craft shops and they are incredible. They work so well. Make sure you don't buy a stanley knife though. They look similar, but exactoknifes are slimmer.

I'll look for one! I hate using the ordinary knife. The most annoying thing is when the paint bleeds! I don't stick the paper down in any way. I just place it on it and go for it. It usually comes out really good

Exacto knives are cool, especially if you get the kits with all the bits and bobs in. Stolen Sharpie Revolution and every DIY article from America I've ever read, absolutely bums exacto knives. However I don't have one.

I just use a trusty craft knife with snap off blades if there's little detail, but most often (cus I do a lot of detailed work) I use a scalpel. They're amazing and I got a box of replacement blades and since I've been doing DIY I never needed to change the blade until about 2 days ago. Scalpels are awesome!

I hate fuax hawks soooo much. A few kids in my school have faux hawks and they all wear pink polo shirts with popped collars. It annoys the sh[B]i[/B]t out of me.

where i come from wa'nkers call them "modified mohawks" i call them "ghey haircuts"
Where i come from we have this brand "industrie" i dont know if its a worldwide brand, but all those guys wear their tight pink poloshirts with the back of the collar up and tight (but not emotight) jeans. I have a tendency to spitball easyway pearls at these people.

uhh heres one:

how do i wire this with a 3pdt switch and a LED, keep in mind its postive grounded too.

Ok, heres a question. What is a good fabric paint for making shirts? I want one that will not come off or fade after a couple washes. Thanks.

I told you they wear the popped collar pink shirts. It's overly cliche. If it's not the popped pink collar shirt, it's whatever the current trendy pop-punk band is.

[QUOTE=El Punko]Ok, heres a question. What is a good fabric paint for making shirts? I want one that will not come off or fade after a couple washes. Thanks.[/QUOTE]

I use acrylic mixed with fabric medium, and it doesn't fade too much. Or you could get this stuff called "supercoat" fabric paint. It works a little better than the fabric medium/acrylic mixture, but for like about four times the price.

About how much would either cost?

[QUOTE=El Punko]About how much would either cost?[/QUOTE]

A large bottle of acrylic should cost about 2-3 dollars, and the fabric medium is like 2 dollars for a medium sized bottle. A tub of supercoat is like $20, and you can only get it, if you're lucky, from craft stores, or you could always look on the internet.

Ill give the mixing idea a shot, thanks very much.
