My son has grown a mullet – it's one of the many things I admire about his generation
I grew up in the 80s and was never a fan of the mullet. This is despite the fact the âbusiness at the front, party at the backâ look was being worn by singers I idolised at the time: David Bowie, Chrissie Hynde, Prince, Joan Jett, and Chrissy Amphlett. According to the teenagers I talk to, the mullet became popular in surfing circles when Australian pro-surfer Mikey Wright started sporting one on his Instagram page in 2017. Fast forward to 2021 and it is sometimes worn with mini bangs, or even mooshed together with a mohawk. Itâs the latter look my son adopted.
