Mullet Mania!
Yes, you've seen a mullet. But you may not have realized it.
When we say "mullet" we don't mean the fish -- we mean the haircut. The basic mullet look is shortish on top and extra-long in the back.
The look is often associated with Camaro driving, professional wrestling, country music, and other all-American activities. Prominent celebrity mullet-wearers include country star Billy Ray Cyrus and pitcher Randy Johnson.
The semi-snide term mullet was coined by Mike D of the Beastie Boys and somehow Web users came to embrace the haircut in that ironic Internet way. Now there are all kinds of web pages devoted to mullet-tude. The cut has also spawned multiple nicknames ("ape drape" and "squirrel pelt" seem quite popular).
Mullets have been a Web fad for at least two years, yet we still get hundreds of searches a week for them. Last week mullets got about the same number of searches as the JFK assassination, migraine headaches, and the TV soap opera All My Children. And mullets got significantly more searches than Girl Scouts, Hillary Clinton, or Sigmund Freud.
For a few good links to mullets online, see Mullet Alert! For a few good photos, try Dav's Wonderful World of the Mullet. And for non-mullet styling, please see our hair type directory.
