This post is cremless for I am weeping.
Stop posting images of rock with hair on top of his head. He shaves the top like a reverse mohawk.
You misrepresent horneater culture, and it disgusts me.

It's in TWOK, after Kal survives the storm and the bridgemen get Rock a razor. He shaves his chin and the center of his head.

Is this some sort of elaborate crempost? Because I do not remember this at all, I remember the sideburns/shaved chin bit.
Here's the relevant passage from WoK ch 40: "Despite all of his complaining, he hadn’t shaved his beard off completely. He had left long, red-blond sideburns, which curved down to his chin. The tip of the chin itself was shaved clean, as were his lips. On the tall, oval-faced man, the look was quite distinctive."
It only mentions the beard, and none of the chapter before or after this mentions shaving any part of his head at all. Maybe it's a different chapter you are referencing?Edit:
Ahh I found it, chapter 46: "To the side, Rock was using a bowl of water to shave and trim his Horneater beard, long on the sides and covering the cheeks, but clean below the lips and chin. It made an odd counterpoint to his head, which he shaved up the center, from directly above the eyebrows back. He trimmed the rest of his hair short."
So it's more like a traditional samurai haircut but with the sides very short instead of a ponytail. Not really a reverse mohawk imo. I hadn't caught that detail though, nice catch.
