A Tokyo fashion designer did a public appearance in New York’s Washington Square Park in order to show off his 3′ 8.6″ mohawk, which has held the Guinness World Record for world’s tallest mohawk since 2011. More from the Houston Chronicle
Forty-year-old Kazuhiro Watanabe (kah-zoo-HEE’-roh wah-tah-NAH’-bee) says he’s been growing the hair for 15 years. He says to make it stand upright it takes stylists two hours, one can of gel and three cans of hairspray. He says he wanted to grow the mohawk to rebel against the conformity of Japanese society.
