Same here.

In the late 80's I had the long, biggish hair in the styles of the actresses in Dallas/Dynasty..
(well all us girlies tried to emulate Pammy and Sue Ellen in the glamour stakes)

;D  ;D

Personally I think the die straight centre partened hair has been done to the absolute death here in the uk.    ::)

BRING BACK BIG HAIR DO'S    ;D

I never had a mullet....but my mom had that god-awful feathered hair...like short on top...feathered on the sides and a bit longer in the back...BARF!




Erin :)

I never had a mullet, but I did have really big hair.  (Can you say spiral perms???)  To make it worse I have really thick hair so it would take hours to wrap.

I agree. At least there was variety in the 80's. Not that I want those styles to come back, but that same look every teenage girl has is getting old.

I had a crewcut,not a mullet.

How about that chap from Flock of Seagulls?

Go to http://www.mulletjunky.com/
There is a menu at the top with albino, child, femullets, etc. Click on them... there are some really funny pictures along with commentary.

Yep...I had one...

Not a full-blown top of the range model like young Limahl had, but it certainly fit the description nonetheless...

And I had 'highlights' put in too! What a tart!

Thankfully.... no.  ::)  ;D

Not exactly clear, but Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott, insisted he was defending himself when he punched a mullet bearing protester who pelted him with an egg as he arrived for a speech in north Wales, durung the election campaign in 2001.

No, mine were done more subtly...

Mind you, I did try to copy Limahl's 'come hither' heavy-eyelid look - but everyone said I either looked half-drunk, stoned, or needed a good night's sleep...

Kinda like what Julien Cope sang about in "World, Shut Your Mouth"....flying in the face of fashion! ;D
But seriously, how did the mullet gets it's name? I mean even if you turn the fish up the right way, it only bears a very slight resemblance.http://www.imagefast.com/resources/freetime/images/fish/mullet_small.jpg
Personally, I never had a mullet, but I did cut one during my 1st year of hairdressing (1992!) which  is just as bad, I suppose. I thought it really suited the guy in question, who had the most beautiful thick, wavy red hair. His father, however, took one look at him, told him he looked like a "poof" and gave him a no.2 all over! :\'(
The worst mullet I ever saw belonged to a girl in my class at school (1988-89.) Her thick hair fell all the way down to her bum at the back, but was short, spikey and sort of centre-parted at the front -BLLLGGHHH!

I gave a mullet haircuit today!  The guy was about 50 years old, all grey and balding on top. ;D

That sounds bad, really bad. Mullets on women are the worst!!

I didn't & never would, but I now live in Wisconsin, where the style is QUITE alive. (sigh)

This is as close as I ever came to having one....

Does she have a mullet? ;D

I've had a few dweebs tell me I've got a mullet...I don't think so, this pic was from '93 I think. Yeah, not much changes LOL! Still the same, just a lot longer now.

Wow,Cool MM were you in some kind of band? :)

Jammed with friends a lot and to records. Las time I got them out my fingers forgot how to move-not that I was any George Lynch but I couldn't even keep up with Lita Ford and back then I was jamming along to King Diamond CD's. It was humid nights like this we'd have a cooler full of beer and be rockin' out, sweating out a*ses off till we were ready to drop. I wonder if I tried that at 37 if I'd end up in the ER ??? >:(

Do you still have a mullet?

Was that a mullet? I never thought it was. My buddy Jay had one...very short on the top & sides and shoulder length in back. He was a CPA by day,  fronted a rock band by night.

But yeah, I've still got the same style, just growing the front longer now.

i have a "Mushroom" haircut which first gained popularity in the late 80's/ early 90's


I believe the Mushroom haircut was first sported by Terry Hall when he left the Specials and joined Fun Boy Three. I believe early Banana Rama made an appearence on this record .

Umm, nope...the blond hides it well  8) I noticed my first grey at 23, but have been bleaching it since I was 21. Maybe I should stop...I may be paying for nothing  ;D

Eventually,the bleach will fade away and you're going to wind up gray for good. ;D

i was 16 in the year of 1987, i had the blonde sprial rap hair it was beautiful, but it was not big and puffy, a little featherd to the bangs, thats what i had, and lots of boyfriends too. :)

Not if I can help it. hehehe. Actually, wasn't there a very short period that some were dying their hair grey. I never understood that.  :o

How long do you think you're going to keep on dying your hair? ;D

Actually, during that time, I was already in the Marines, so I had like no hair.  3" was the longest allowed, and could not extend below the ears, evenly tapered up the back.  I had that from 1983-1993.

Of course, since then I have started to grow it long.  Starting in 1998, I would routinely grow my hair until it reaches the middle of my back (or longer), then get it all cut off.  My last 2 haircuts were in June 2004 and November 2000.  SO when everybody else was wearing them long, I had mine short.  And now that short hair is back in, I routinely grow it long.

I expect my next haircut to be sometime in late 2006 or 2007.  By that time, it should be down to my lower back again (it is just now long enough to pull the front into a ponytail in the back, and is lower in the back then my shoulder blade).

If anybody here is puzzled at this, check out the following link.  It is an awesome program that I support fully.  I am growing my hair now for my 4th donation.  :)

I dunno. I've been bleaching it for about 17, 18 years. There's a lot of grey on what little sideburns I have and at times I wonder why I go thorugh the expense but it's such a blast from the past, I can't let it go. It's been such a part of me for so long now. If I ever have to cut it short I'll stop bleachaing it & will dye it back to my natural colour (brown). I hate bleached blond on short hair. Just a personal preference but I think it looks awful on dudes with short hair.
