Would anyone cut off their hawk for a girl or a guy? (Everyone's input would be appreciated)

Just wondering what you would do because earlier, me and my so called "best friend" were in a bar helping a few friends with a show(i filled in on guitar for them and he tagged along)and he started telling me all this shit about how i need to cut off my hawk and grow my hair shaggy like that little bitch zac efron. I got pissed!! Im like,"Why the fuck should I?? Look like every other abercrombie clone that walks around with their head up there ass??" He starts listing all like things wrong with punk and metal stuff and sayin its not cool with girls and he's startin to get embarressed of me. I say "what ever! You still aren't popular, even after you changed your look" He says its cause he's hangs with me so he "suffers by association". I say"do me a favor and go back and tell all those hollister bitches to go fuck themselves!!!Fuck you! Fuck them!! fuck everyone that trys to change me into that shit!!!" Then he says I should just get rid of the hawk at least. I could still dress in my metal bands t shirts and stuff but the mohawk has to go. I just said "Go fuck yourself". I got up and grabbed someones beer and smashed the glass into his chest to ruin his $150 hollister shirt, and left.
Now I've been thinkin maybe he's right? Maybe I should shave the mohawk and grow it out? Half of me says I should and it'll really actually be better, but the other half of me says I shouldn't because it wont matter, most of the chicks would still judge me 50 feet away. What should I do??? I used to have long wavy hair all the way down my back and I think that might have been more popular than the hawk. I'm starting to kinda miss it. I don't know what to do? I'm still kinda in shock i guess and stewing from earlier.
