They can be razor cut, scissor cut or dry-cut, each method creating sometimes subtle differences in style.ĭrumroll please… Introducing the birth child of the mullet and the shag. The shag haircut truly transcends our hairdressing tools. And tucked behind the ear, a proper shag will have cute little ‘money pieces’ that will appear and frame the side of the face. The shag haircut is the balance between length and short layers, and a shag is not a shag without a killer bang! Bravely residing on or above the eyebrow. It has become the favourite and go-to haircut for dry-cutters and curly hair specialists around the world. Now, well into the 2000s, it has rushed screaming back to choppy and natural. The next 2 decades saw it hit a more commercial and smooth vibe with the rise of straightening irons and hot wands. The shaggy doo’s of the 70s and 80s were choppy and texture focused. The shag haircut has truly stood the test of time. Clipper cutting a mullet will give you sharpness and definition at the front of your haircut whilst creating a striking disconnection at the back and dry-cutting a mullet is specific to cutting a curly mullet. Razor cutting a mullet will give you lots of cool texture and create beautiful tassels in the hair. There are so many ways to cut a mullet, and so many variations. The mullet haircut is business at the front (meaning a short and sharp front) and party at the back (meaning long and luscious with a mostly big drop of hair flowing past your shoulders).
Now, they’re the haircut of choice for the inner-city chic hipster kid. They truly have survived the test of time! They have had their place in all sorts of demographics of humans, from the Sharpies, to the 80s cool kids. Let’s talk about the mullet haircut first. THE MULLET – Business at the front and party at the back. The 2 main differences between the mullet haircut and then shag haircut are: The shag haircut, the mullet haircut and the love child of the 2: the shag-mullet haircut. You may not think these 3 names have anything in common but think again! They all had a version of these haircuts suited to their time.
Think Sharpies, Farrah Fawcett and Courtney Love. But, trust us, they definitely existed! Every so often, they change and evolve, enjoying their time in the spotlight once again. Conjuring an image of the 80s shag, the 90s shag and even the 2000s shag may be a little more difficult. Let’s face it, these 2 haircuts have been well and truly alive for decades. So, I wanted to do a little summary of the 2 biggest haircuts of the moment, and how they come together! Introducing the mullet, the shag, and shag-mullets!!!
