The punk scene is supposedly characterized by rebellious styles and fashions; many punks wear their hair in styles such as  [[mohawks]], spiked or shaved into different patterns, in a pathetic attempt to get attention. <!-- Scarcely better than bloody emo's. --> The purpose, for punks, is to break from [[conformity]] (as they see it) so defining the cultural attributes can present difficulties. However, by adopting the styles common to a particular group, they actually embrace conformity rather than avoiding it. The original punks of the mid-1970s either dressed quite normally or modified their own clothes, rather than becoming [[slavery|slaves]] of [[consumerism]].
