Why are people up in arms over it being "stupid" or "unnacceptable for a 6 year old"?
Let them do what they want to do, it's not hurting anyone. It's not hurting you, your mom, your brother, or your next-door-neighbor. It's HAIR. Damn.

Because whether parents like it or not, school is not just to teach the kids how to read and figure. It's to prepare them for interaction in a work environment. In other words, they should be learning from an early age that there is a time and a place for extremes, and there is a time and a place to look like a normal human being.
If they show up to a job with a blue mohawk, they'll get fired unless they're DJing at a punk club.
If the kid wants a mohawk, he can have one during the summer. That's the time and place for a kid to. . erm. . let his hair down. Once he gets to school, he needs to start learning that while crazy hair is fun, it's not generally accepted when you are working in a peopled environment.
