to think that a mullet is never a good look?

I am mystified as to why people have them

If anyone can enlighten me and make me see them in a new light, I would be most grateful

But really.

How dare you critisize mullets, I have one and it looks lovely.

They are making a comeback.

mindalina · 23/04/2008 20:57

No no no yanbu in the slightest. I don't get it, it just looks odd.

nell12 · 23/04/2008 20:58

I think whar really does it when the hair at the back is kind of backcombed

It is one of those looks that I don't think ANYONE can carry off

they are not really coming back into fashion, are they?

What is this 80s revival thing, anyway? It is noticable that it is not prevalent among those who actually remember the horror of the 80s.

As you can see I'm equally as gorgeous so theres no wonder our offspring is just so perfect and in such demand as a child model

SheikYerbouti · 23/04/2008 21:53

Peolpe have them because they are value for money - 2 haircuts in one. See?

southeastastra · 23/04/2008 21:53

SheikYerbouti · 23/04/2008 21:55

I am taking this to the hairdresser so that they can replicate it for me

southeastastra · 23/04/2008 22:00

AlistairSim · 23/04/2008 22:02

Amapoleon · 23/04/2008 22:05

You want to come to Southern Spain, they are still the height of fashion here!

Just for you, Fillyjonk.

It's lovely really, two haircuts for the price of one.
I can have long, flippy days and short, serious days.

The frosting on the tips really does add a classy touch, I must say.

I fell like a whole new woman....and strangely, so does dp.

AlistairSim · 25/04/2008 13:43

No, I feel.

I have done no falling as yet today.

HereComeTheGirls · 25/04/2008 13:51

I had one in 1987

AlistairSim · 25/04/2008 15:32

I think you should show us photographic evidence, so that we might judge.

(and point and laugh)
