It is not so important whether you have straight or curly hair, either can work well in a mullet. Remember that classic mullet wearers such as Billy Ray Cyrus were famous for their cascading waterfall style cuts as opposed to straight hair at the back.

How The Mullet Wig Started

Photo of mullet wigA number of people do not exactly know where the mullet wig came from. This is perfectly understandable when you eventually know how far into history this hairstyle actually goes. Comprising of long locks of hair this style is very much similar to Rastafarian dreadlocks. The only difference is that the locks of hair are not as many and not as thick as dreadlocks. Anyway, let us get deep into how this style actually became what it is today, a flashy global hair trend.

For your own information the mullet is yet another hairstyle adopted from the commoner and attributed to celebrities. This is to say this style was not popular until celebrities in the 1970s and 1960s started manipulating its humble origins. David Bowie and Ziggy Stardust started the very first experimental phase with a rather jittery start riddled with much nervousness.

I mean, what would you do if you tried out a hairstyle that everyone might end up laughing at? However, this very modest beginning was in later years to be sabotaged by women readily embracing gender rights. So Florence Henderson stepped up a gear and established herself as the first female celebrity to try it out, and boy was it a resounding success.

But this is just a tip of an iceberg melting at the hands of a planet warming up gradually. Michael Bolton, Phil Collins and Hulk Hogan then took advantage of a growing media industry to set it apart from the normal trend it had begun to become. Eventually more and more celebrities started trying it, with the obvious result of people going out of their way to have it.

So as you go through this article you might be thinking, why not? If anything people around you will love it. Just try it out and see how well people respond to it. And even if they do not it does not matter, it is a fine hairstyle all the same.

Rock Band Mullets For A Style Change

Photo of rock band mulletRock band mullets have evolved from a long history of hair throughout the ages. Over the years it has defined the style of different ages, but through all the centuries it has been clearly defined as a hairstyle that encompasses short hair for the front and sides of the head, but longer hair in the back of the neck.

Viewed front on this appears as a simple and neat business cut but viewed from the rear its a wild bush of long hair. We can thank the Egyptian people, particularly the pharaohs, for introducing this hairstyle to the world. The Egyptians wore wigs of black wool that was short in the front and sides but was worn long down the neck and back.

The Celtic tribes adopted a wilder, shaggier version of the Egyptian mullet. They also introduced the idea of coloring their hair, mostly in shades of woad or green. Dying of the hair in different colors has been adopted by the more rebellious genres of our society and include bikers, wrestlers and rockers

Over the centuries the mullet has enjoyed various revivals and been adapted to suit different styles. The Grecian men chose to braid their hair and wore slender ringlets close to their scalps, allowing their fine braids to flow freely down their broad backs.

The mullet was reborn in the era of Napoleon Bonaparte, where it was straighter and more simplified. Privileged English youths adopted this more romantic style, which can be seen in paintings that date from this era in our illustrious history. The mystique of the mullet travelled to the new world, being adopted by the native American Indian tribes of the United States.

Over time iconic rock stars like David Bowie had adopted the look to define a new age in fashion. The well renowned singer Rod Stewart has worn this style for many years and it has been adopted by other celebrities too. The tennis star, Andre Agassi, wore a mullet at the high point of his career and the actor Patrick Swayze starred in the film Dirty Dancing sporting a mullet.

Mullet is a hairstyle that is almost impossible to forget. Forever associated with men who liked to appear masculine but ended up looking just odd, a mullet is an option that will forever be associated with the 1980s. If you have a fancy dress party coming up or an eighties theme party then you can guaranteed that by using a new mullet wig as part of your outfit you will get a lot of laughs. Mullet wigs are available in almost every conceivable size, color, texture, and shape.

Even today there are some men and women that still style their hair in this manner. Just take a look out of your window, maybe the delivery driver in the van parked across the street has a mullet or perhaps the man mowing next doors lawn has a waterfall type mullet cascading down his back. We shouldn't just think it's in the US that mullets are a common site. People with questionable taste have been wearing mullets for many decades on every continent.

Before you get hold of a mullet wig you should think about the exact style that you want. There are spiky mullets, dreadlocked mullets, silver mullets, and multi-colored options available that can give you an appearance like you have just stepped back in time.

Of course you will also need the right clothes to complete the look. How about a Hulk Hogan, Billy Ray Cyrus, or Jon Bon Jovi T-shirt with a pair of acid washed jeans and some big and bright trainers?

If your local fancy dress store does not stock mullet wigs then you can easily pick up the perfect design online. Also the cost available through a website would likely be less than if you were to make a purchase from a normal retail outlet.

The Secret Of The Patrick Swayze Mullet

Patrick Swayze mullet

The legendary Patrick Swayze was a rare leading man, to say the least. How many movie stars can you name who were capable of making a cheesy romance movie one year, then turning around and putting out a cult classic guy-flick like Road House the next? Maybe Mel Gibson and one or two others, but it's not a very long list. What was his appeal? How is it that this man was able to make the women swoon, and still be referenced by name in the lyrics of a DMX gangsta rap song? It may have been the Patrick Swayze mullet.

This hair style is as much a legend as the man himself. A cutting edge advancement on mullet technology, we still do not have the science to recreate it to this day. You may think "Oh it's just the same thing as Kurt Russel had in Escape From New York!" but you are wrong. Russel's shaggy locks lent him a true tough guy appeal, that's for certain, but it did him no favors as a lady's man, which, honestly, completely misses the point of wearing a mullet in the first place.

Picture of Patrick Swayze mullet haircut

Swayze's mullet was a much more brazen, bold, and dangerous look. In the hands of a lesser mulletologist, it may have simply looked like a typical trailer park mullet, but in Swayze's capable hands, it was perhaps the greatest mullet Hollywood had ever seen.

What made it so special? It is certainly more than the sum of its parts. The front is a standard Duck Butt, like Elvis wore, while the back, the party end of the deal, was a gorgeous mane of dirty bond that somehow straddled the line between shaggy and well kept.

The trick might have been in Swayze's conditioner, rumored to have been custom formulated out of rare South American tree saps and a very small dose of plutonium. Whatever the case, Swayze took his secret to the grave, which may be for the best. This secret was not meant to fall into the wrong hands lest the process of natural selection fall to anarchy.

Some of the finest and most brilliant mullet researchers on the planet have tried to ape this look, but to no avail.

Our advice is to simply experiment with different shampoos and conditioners, try teasing it in different ways, use some mousse or gel or spray, and if you manage to recreate the look to perfection, guard the secret with your life.

Which Types Of Mullets Are Right For You?

The mullet is an important piece of cultural heritage. Many will look at the mullet and just chuckle, but fact is: The native Americans had braids and mohawks, African warriors have tribal paint, and folks from the American south have the mullet. It's who you are, be proud of all types of mullets.

The mullet encompasses both aspects of the good ol' boy image. When you're walking towards someone, they'll say to themselves "Wow, this guy's all business". As you're leaving, though, they'll say "But man, I guess he knows how to party..."

So which mullet is right for you? Read on and find out...

The Traditional Mullet

Flattop mullet

The most common mullet is simply the flat top with the long, straight hair in the back. To get this mullet, just get out the buzz clippers and trim the sides and the top till it looks good. This mullet is great for pretty much anyone, but it looks especially distinctive with lighter blond hair colors.

The Billy Ray Cyrus

Billy Ray Cyrus' mullet became synonymous with the song itself, Achey Breaky Heart. You probably remember it as getting more and more whimsical every time he came out. One time he might have adorned it with a rat tail, another with some braids and beads. The consistent elements, though, were the slightly shaggy look and the sense of imagination when it comes to decorating and styling it.

The Snake Plissken

Snake Plissken's mullet blurred the line between the mullet and "hippie hair". This represented that he was, above all else, an All American character, but that he had grown disillusioned with the American government. This style looks great on just about anyone, and represents a cool, detached, healthy American cynicism, but it looks best on someone who can back it up, someone with martial arts training or some twenty four inch biceps.

The look is associated with country and western songs, blue collar workingmen and heavy metal sounds.

The girl mullet, female mullet, femmullet, whatever you want to call it, is a hairstyle worn by few, mastered by fewer, and attempted by many at the risk of failure.

To wear the femmullet, you need to be okay with that, you need to be okay with the potential of becoming the Icarus of hair. It's not something that just anybody can pull off. In the wrong hands, it can be a travesty, but in the right hands, it can transform your entire lifestyle.

We're not talking about the Joan Jett, pseudo-mullet. While sexy, Jett played it safe with that style. She knew better than to tempt fate by wearing a true femmullet on stage.

No, we're talking about shaved on the sides, long in the back, feathered and short on top female mullets. The real deal, one hundred percent pure.

How do you attain this style? Very carefully. Before you even consider this do, you'll need to be prepared, because the style doesn't look good at all unless coupled with a few accessories: A sleeveless men's t-shirt, tucked in and preferably with some sort of attitude slogan on the front. A pair of tight, acid wash jeans. And finally, a cigarette. If you don't smoke, get some herbal cigarettes and put them in a pack of camels.

Now if you're ready to proceed, you'll want to have a pair of good scissors, some buzz clippers and some styling product like mousse, gel or, preferably, spray. This style looks better the shinier your hair is, so conditioning is a must.

For the first variation, you'll need long hair, and then to trim it to a few inches long, or to your own preference, on the top. From there you can tease it and style it as you please, so long as it stands up on end and the back, the party end, is feathered nicely.

The second variation is the same as the first, but with one incredibly daring difference. You take the clippers, and you trim the sides like a buzz cut. As we said, it's a potentially dangerous variation, and should be done only by the truly brave. If you're even more daring than that, try clipping a saying or image into the side, as well.
