The Mohawk problem!

Backcombing and hairspray. My mohawk is about a foot tall now and it stays up for days by backcombing the sh*t out of it and then spraying it down with maximum hold hairspray. I get mine up in about 10 minutes.

I have a 6inch mohawk myself and get the same problem,i really hate having a crown lol,but i find the strongest stuff to use is wood glue,i can have mine staying up for a week and still looking like i did it that day,course i needed to teach myself how to sleep properly,but none the less,my hair stays up :) But to make it easier i put my head upside down and use a comb to hold the hair in place whilst i spray it with hairspray and then blow dry it with a hairdryer,once thats got the hair in place i use the wood glue to hold it there properly,only takes me about 20mins to get it all up right. Hope thats helped you a bit :)

The way I see it, the shorter the hairdo the more trimming it needs! I know, cause one year, I shaved my head completely! I did not get trimmings every six weeks, but you can use gel products to improve the cooperation of your mohawk!

try using got2bglued. thats what i use on my mohawk and that stuff is water resistant.

The Mohawk is, by its nature (and depending on the type of hair the wearer has), typically a high-maintenance style. After practice, maintenance of the style can become quite routine for the wearer and done in a much shorter amount of time. Depending on the specific look desired by the wearer, regular, careful shaving may be required to maintain a clean line between the shaven and long parts of the hair; this can be especially complicated in bi- and tri- hawks. If the hair is to be worn up, 30 minutes or more of laborious styling, including brushing, backcombing (teasing), twisting and so on, may be required. Some styles are particularly difficult to put up, requiring the use of sprays, and in some cases other holding agents like, white or clear glue, egg whites, cornstarch, or gelatin. The amount of time required for styling may increase considerably with longer hair or styles that require even spikes and lines. Depending on the method used to spike a Mohawk, it can take much less than 20 minutes. The use of glue and a blow-dryer cuts down considerably on the time needed. The best way to do it and keep it clean would be to apply strong hair spray to dry hair from the bottom and work your way up to the top while blow drying. The easiest way to maintain longer mohawks is to put it into liberty spikes; this is much faster and holds much longer. However, once the Mohawk is up it can be easily maintained for an extended period. By sleeping on the side of the head with the Mohawk extending in the air, daily maintenance takes only a few minutes of reinforcement touching up. Depending on what is used to put the Mohawk up, and the conditions it endures, a Mohawk can stay erect for several weeks. Some wearers enhance the look of their Mohawks using hair dyes. This, too can require a great deal of initial effort and maintenance, especially in styles where the color(s) form an integral part of the style. In some cases, for example, Mohawk-wearers who normally wear their hair up in a fan style dye the hair in even lines or stripes of color, either horizontal or vertical. source :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohawk_hairstyle
