Just noticed a shocking trend

[AndyCr15]

Valtteri Bottas has entered the conversation.

This is who I was going to mention along with the comment around it's not just the mullet, it's often paired with the 70's porn starn mustache...

I was in Spain a couple of weeks back and we were chuckling at some young Australian cyclists sporting the mullet/mustache combo.

It's when you know you're old when horrible fashions come back around again I'm afraid.

I popped into a bar for a quick half while waiting for someone the other week and thought I'd walked into the middle of some sort of 90s theme student fancy dress pub crawl.

Nope, it's just fashionable again.

Certain parts of New Zealand do favour the unironic mullet. It is not okay.

We went swimming at the weekend and this guy was the spitting image of our of those 118 runners. His tash was pretty impressive. I've noticed when I take my 6 year old to his rugby matches there are quite a few dodgy hair cuts (although tends to be the rougher side of town). Intact one of the local rugby players has a very wtf hairstyle, I'll try and find a pic.

My mullet has given me the confidence to start dating again..

I saw a group of proper greebo's the other day, wallet chain and baggies, reminded me of being 15! God those big baggies were a stupid idea, I absolutely loved them at the time however.

Wish I had enough hair left to grow one

 

[jpaul]

Hamilton can only dream of copying Bottas - but if you've seen the inflationary cost of haircuts why not wait.

Basically my hair now and since I was 16 so think big dark curly blob, distressed haystack

If I put "big dark curly blob, distressed haystack" into a popular search engine, one of the first images is this.

Well hello, are you single, would you like me to trim the lawn or your bush

I’m not sure what period mullets are really from, but looking at the teenagers around here the nineties definitely called and want their fashion back. Baggy trousers, baggy everything especially for the girls. Blame Billie Eilish.

 

[Nasher]

I think they crept back in over lockdown. Barbers closed. People either grew a mullet or got brave and trimmed it themselves.

Damm i wish i had hair, always wanted a mullet, but younger self never had the courage to wear with such a fine mane with pride.

 

[plasmahal]

Mullets are cool, wish I brave enough to pull one off.

Helps if you actually have hair...

I didn't see any mullets around here before Brexit.

Just sayin'

All business up front and a party at the back, what's not to love!

 

[henry hoov3r]

I’m still waiting for Fila trainers and NAFF CO54 jackets to come back.

I went to Erith School in the 90s and everyone had them jackets!

I was just up the road in Kidbrooke School

 

[Brutal biff]

Mullets down to this gender neutral crap by anychance

No one can pull a mullet off like an 80’s Mel Gibson

George Michael's was pretty impressive too.
