From outrageous to tame, here are some quick definitions of some popular (or used to be popular) male hairstyles.
从野性到顺从，以下便是对一些流行（或曾经流行过）的男士发型所做的快速解读。
Mohawk莫霍克发型
The Mohawk style originates from a tribe of Native Americans called the Mohawk by white settlers. Although, to the Mohawks, creating this haircut was itself part of an important ritual (each hair was plucked out), it became fashionable with the punks of the late seventies. It involves shaving all of your head, but leaving a narrow strip in the centre. This is then spiked upwards, often to impressive heights.
莫霍克发型起源于美洲的一个土著部族，该部族被白人殖民者称为莫霍克族。虽然对于莫霍克族人来说，梳理这种发型本身只是一个重要宗教仪式的组成 部分（每根头发都是被拔掉的），但它却于（20世纪）70年代末在朋克人群当中流行开来。该发型需要剃掉你所有的头发，只在头顶中间留下一窄条头发。之 后，把这些头发向上竖起，而竖起的幅度之大往往是惊人的。
Afro非洲式发型
The Afro was first worn by African-Americans in the 1960′s. It distinguished more hip African-Americans from their short-haired conformist counterparts. The hair grows outward from the head. Some people wear their Afros quite large, even several times the diameter of their heads. This style requires tight curly hair, which typically people of African descent have.
20世纪60年代，非裔美国人率先梳起了非洲式发型。它把更为开放的非裔美国人和留着短发的保守非裔美国人区别开来。而头发在生长时是以头部为 中心向外蓬胀的。有些人的非洲式发型非常大，有时候甚至是其头部宽幅的好几倍。梳理这种发型需要浓密的卷发，而这种发质通常是具有非洲血统的人所拥有的。
Buzz Cut 蜂鸣发型（寸头）
A buzz cut is a very short, tight haircut that is so named because of the sound the razor makes when getting it done. This cut is usually standard for soldiers. It has to be the fastest haircut to perform, taking only a minute to delete a full head of hair.
蜂鸣发型是一种非常短的、紧贴头皮的发型，其名称来源于理这种发型时推子所发出的声音。这种发型通常是军人的标准发型。理这种发型一定是用时最短的，只需一分钟就可以将所有头发剃掉。
Mullet胭脂鱼发型
One of the worst things to ever come out of the U.S. has to be the mullet. This affliction on humanity started with hockey players in the U.S. in the 1970′s and went on to become associated with redneck culture. The hair is worn short on top, long at the back and with the ears exposed.
从美国流行开来的最糟糕的事情之一便莫过于胭脂鱼发型了。20世纪70年代，美国的曲棍球运动员开创了这种摧残人性的发型，而该发型随后又开始与乡巴佬文化联系起来。这种发型脑顶的头发短，脑后的头发长，而且耳朵是露出来的。
Crew Cut船员发型
The crew cut is a very short haircut so called because it was fashionable with members of American university rowing crews in the 1930′s.
船员发型是一种非常短的发型，之所以叫这个名称是因为它在20世纪30年代的美国大学划船队员中颇为流行。
