I had a mullet in high school. What are you going to do about it?

[RagingInMiami]

I'm not afraid to admit it. I sported a mullet from 1986 up to the early 90s.
Girls loved my hair. Guys thought I was cool.
Looking back at my high school pictures, I looked cooler and edgier than the guys with short hair.
The mullet was for people who's heart and mind was still in the 70s, but were trying to adjust to the conservatism of the 80s.

Only in Miami.

9. We didn't call it a mullet

Because I grew up in a Cuban neighborhood, it was known as "la teja".

And for those who don't know the Spanish pronunciation, it is "teh-ha"

16. The "roofing tile"!!!!??????

:7

[RagingInMiami]

22. it's cuban slang

They got a few weird ones. Don't ask me how la teja got started.
I'm Colombian-American.

5. I'll have to dig one up and get it scanned

4. It's too late to defend the mullet: Society has passed final judgement.

Witness its conspicuous absence from any and all retro trends. The mullet was and is terminally uncool, case closed.

edit: i am now very thankful for her decision.

7. I prefer the term schlong

Short in front - long in back - schlong.

10. I see lots of 'Skullets' in Austin.

Guys who start balding but are hanging onto the mullet concept.

:o

[Theres-a]

14. LMAO!

I never heard that term before!

[LiberalEsto]

11. But now you have evolved.

What's your hair like now?

[RagingInMiami]

12. Now I have a skullet

Just kidding.
It's been short for years. I comb it back. I have a widow's peak.

13. Shit - I had a mullet about 3 years ago.

Always wanted long hair. It was very thick and unmanigable. I finally decided to get my hair cut, and only let the back grow long.

Cheers

17. pic?

i need more pics for my mullet website . . .

[Debi]

18. Bleach the bangs and the tail

so it's an ultra-cool '80s mullett! :yourock:

[Schema Thing]

19. Tease you about it for the rest of your life!

That's what I'm gonna do about it.

But don't ever mention the boy-with-a-Dorothy Hamill-haircut period of my youth, dammit. Some things are too painful for teasing, and besides, it calls into question the sanity of my parents.

Love the smell of Butch-wax in the morning.
