bad hair

Nothing beats a fresh haircut. That feeling of walking out the salon with your hair silky smooth, ready to show off your new style to anyone who will look. That is, of course, assuming the hairdresser didn't totally mess up. Because then it's a whole different story. These people know a thing or two about bad haircuts and the consequences of having a bad barber.

Your hairstyle plays a pretty big part in your overall appearance, and it's something most people take seriously except for these people, who have clearly given up on life. Scroll through these awful hair blunders and be grateful you aren't them!

We're back with this week's ridiculous beauty blunder, and it comes in the form of mullets. Yes, that's right, possibly one of the word's most divisive hairstyles and one that you thought died with the '80s. It may come as a shock to learn mullets are still very much alive today and is actually celebrated at an annual festival called Mulletfest. Taking place in Kurri Kurri, Australia, it is, according to the official website, "an event that honors the best Mullet cuts in various styles and categories, including 'everyday', 'grubby', 'ranga' (red hair), 'vintage', 'extreme', 'international' and 'junior'". 

You're probably like me and had no idea that so many mullet options existed. You learn something new every day. Photographer Craig Gibson from the UK attended the Mulletfest 2020 to document all of the best, aka worst contestants of this horrific hairstyle. Here they are for you to peruse.
