About Mullet
The essence of a mullet is the length difference between front and back. In its modern form, the sides can be clipped or left textured with scissors, and the length at the back falls to mid-neck or the shoulders. Layers on top give a softer result, while a short top looks sharper.
It gives oval, square and diamond faces a strong character, and it creates different textures on straight, wavy and curly hair. Because it’s such a bold cut, it’s one of the styles most people want to see first. Vivid colors like platinum, copper or orange make its personality even stronger.
What’s the difference between a mullet and a wolf cut?
A mullet is short at the front and sides and clearly longer at the back. A wolf cut softens that contrast with layers and adds more volume on top. Try both on the same photo to compare.
How long does my hair need to be for a mullet?
You need a few extra inches at the back. Going from short hair to a mullet can mean growing the back out for a few months. You can already see the look in Mane.
How many credits does it take to try Mullet in Mane?
