VIRAL: Spiked hair is the shocking new craze and the internet is divided
Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
This is the up-do of the century...
Comfort, class or pazaaz? These are the questions one has to think about when going through their daily hair routine.
It's normal to have "bad hair days" where you wear a cap or "let it loose". In contrast to this, there are days where you spend an unlimited amount of time meticulously planning and styling your hair.
This new trend of "spiked hair" is not uncommon to us, with its rise to fame occurring in the rock era. Although, very rarely do you see this style on women, especially with very long hair.

Hair maintenance can often be expensive and we were shocked to find out how cheap this upkeep actually is. All you need is a good brush, hairdryer some strong gel and hair spray.
Furthermore, we were completely stunned to find out that the TikToK user, erin_micklow, sleeps with it too!
How bizarre... she may be sleeping but her hair definitely up all night.
@erin_micklow How do you do your hair like that?? @got2busa @got2b_official #fyp #foryoupage #punk #punkgirl #punkrock #punkhair #greenday #got2b #hairstyle #bighairgirls #punkrockgirl #punkstyle #punktokers #punks #mohawk #libertyspikes ♬ Hitchin' a Ride - Green Day
As seen in the video above, Erin sections off her hair while applying gel and moulding it into the spiked shape with use of her hairdryer.
This continues with the entirety of her hair in order to ensure that the spike effect is created.
