The hair cut mullet It is still one of the top trends in hairdressing at the moment along with other more classic ones such as the medium length. It is a daring, carefree look, which is highly recommended for those who want to break the standards a bit and bet on cuts with a lot of personality and a bit irreverent.
So much so that professionals like Congratulations Ordas from Felicitas Hair comment that this cut is one of those that bring freshness, joy and that rebellious nuance that helps us to enjoy and celebrate life with intensity. It is made for the most daring, with a long contrast between the nape and the sides. For those who want it to be casual, but without shrillness, with a softer contour. In all cases, with a disheveled effect, thanks to the parades.
It is a haircut whose origin is in the 80s, being David Bowie himself who first made it fashionable. It is characterized by having a short front part, both the bangs and the sides, and a longer back part, covering the nape of the neck, although it is also true that it has been reinventing itself in recent times.
how to make a mullet
Both to get a good mullet and for any other such as a mid-length cut, for example, it is best to put yourself in the hands of good professionals where they can advise us on the different types of mullet that will benefit us more.
If there is something that defines this cut, it is the layers, that is clear, but also the bangs. Thus, if we like or favor a different fringe, with the mullet we can take it very short and paraded or long and to the side.
The same happens with the side layers you can make them as long as you want, even the same as the back, only creating more subtle layers to achieve a contour with less volume so that it is close to the skin.
Tips for Styling and Maintaining a Mullet
As for the maintenance of this haircut, Albert Sanguino, Director of Education of Llongueras has resolved all the doubts we had and comments that, in reality, it is a cut that does not require too much frequency when going to the hairdresser. Also, Although he grows up, he still looks ideal. In fact, you only need touch-ups every two or three months, to redo the cut line and correct the length of the layers. In this way, the bangs would not weigh down and would not lose texture or volume.
The truth is that just with these statements we already love it because for those of us who don’t like going to the hairdresser too often, it’s great.
Of course, what the experts do tell us is that we must pay more attention to the products of styling, especially in the face of look what you want to get.
Mullet Hairstyles Ideas
It must be admitted that this haircut, by itself, has an incredible roll and does not require much effort to style it. In fact, one of the ways we propose is let it dry directly in the air so that it will take the natural shape of your hair and it will surely look great.
Another possibility is enjoy a smooth mullet. To achieve this, we only have to apply a texturizing product according to the type of hair you have. Second, we remove all moisture and dry forward. We will comb it on both sides of the parting, first, all to one side, and then to the other. To finish, we will polish and define with a few touches of a hair straightener. We can use wax, a product that leaves a matte effect or a dry shampoo at the root to create texture.
We could also do different updos depending on our length. Thus, for example, we can make a ponytail and leave the fronts loose; tuck the sideburn strands behind your ears (this will create a mullet sweeter and more feminine), or wear it extra smooth or with a little volume.
Another possibility that Alberto Sanguino points out to us is to show it off with the hair curly for which it is very important to follow the protocol of the curly method. Thus, it indicates that we will start the washing process with a specific shampoo for curls, which leaves the scalp perfectly cared for and the curl well defined. The next thing will be to apply a product without rinsing, but the choice will depend on the type of curl you are going to have (if you want it more defined, more activated, without frizz, etc.). Then, with wet hair, head down and with the help of your fingers, dry it in the air or with a diffuser. It is essential to finish with a product that enhances shine and prevents the frizz effect.
We cannot lose sight of the wet effect mullet hairstyle, a wet effect that adapts perfectly to this style of look and with which we can play a lot, either by leaving it loose or, why not, combing it a little more.
