Because they enjoy it.
Getting a Mohawk is a choice that should not be taken lightly. A less extreme option would be to get a faux-hawk, since it will allow a person to keep the hair on the sides of their head and still achieve that Mohawk look.
If you mean when a Mohawk Indian cut his hair in 'that style' (a Mohawk) - it was normally only done in times of war; IE: A visual symbol that the person was on the path of war.

Mohawk hair cut
Yes. But it probably wont look so great but of course curly hair can diffently be used as a mohawk style for hair.
A fohawk is a Mohawk in which you do not shave your sides. There is still hair on the sides but a little Mohawk in the middle
I guess you are referring to the so-called "Mohawk hairstyle" that many people today incorrectly believe was worn by the Mohawk Iroquois. This idea is totally false, so forget everything you ever heard about Mohawk native Americans wearing their hair like that. Unmarried Mohawk women and girls, like all the Iroquois group, wore their hair long and loose; married women wove it into one large braid at the back, doubled up and fastened with a buckskin strap. Mohawk men either wore their hair long and loose, or cut in a fringe at the front, or shaved all the head except for a round scalplock at the crown (back of the head), with a roach of dyed deer hair attached with a bone "spreader", to which was fixed a single feather. Nothing like the modern "Mohawk" hair style, which no historic Mohawk Iroquois would recognise.
because it shows that they r not afraid of war!!! and the were called mohawk The answer above is wrong. There is a reason for the Mohawk hair cut. People who shoot a bow and arrow don't want their hair to get caught in the bow string. They will either cut the hair from the side of their head or wear a head ban. The Mohawks just cut the hair form both sides to even it up.
