haircut

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. 

It's no secret that a good haircut can transform your face, but sometimes the differences in the before and after pictures are truly a sight to behold. Sure, good lighting and makeup can make the differences seem more obvious, but in some cases, a fresh new haircut and overall style can really change a person's whole appearance. Check out these photos of people who prove how true this is. 

We've all sat in the chair in a hair salon looking into the mirror, wondering if we were always this ugly. We've also all wondered how many days we can get away with not washing our hair and disguising the grease with dry shampoo. We know you know what we're talking about, and these hairstylist memes unite us in the trials and tribulations of hair maintenance. 

A person's hairstyle can change their whole face... or can it? Did you ever imagine what Obama would look like with dreads, or whether Putin would suit a man bun? Well, now you don't have to because someone has photoshopped world leaders with totally different hairstyles and the results are hilarious and amazing. It's crazy how much a person's hairstyle changes their energy and impression. Enjoy scrolling through these wonderful pictures, which show the world in a whole new dimension. 

For decades, women have been dying their gray hair as they get older, ashamed of the natural signs of aging. The high beauty standards of the Western world mean that unfortunately, aging gracefully isn't a thing anymore and women are spending hundreds of dollars a month to color their gray roots. But one hairdresser is trying to change that; Jack Martin, from California, is helping women to embrace their gray locks, and the results are stunning. Check out some of his amazing work below. 

Being stuck at home right now means that we don't have access to many of the services that we're dependent on, like schools, gyms and beauty salons. And while homeschooling, doing home workouts and painting your own nails aren't ideal, they're still manageable for the hopefully, short term future. But some services, such as getting a haircut, really need to be left to the professionals because they're just to easy to mess up. These people learned that lesson the hard way, and are probably regretting their DIY chops.
