Mullet Hair-do

[Janbuck]

Does anyone know why they called those hairstlyes from the 70's with short hair on top and long sides/back a 'mullet'? What's it got to do with a fish?!

The fashion guru of the early 70's Henri Mullot started the hairdo.- Therefore naming it The Mullot.

It is simply because the long bit which curls up at the back looks like the mullet fish...Germans are big fans of such hairstyles.

Wow, you like the French pinksmartie?

Well thats 3 of you then ;-)

Thanks to everyone who replied. Trust the French to come up with it!

I thought originally it was because of the mullet fish, but the name is just a coincedence. Google a mullet fish, you'll see that it isn't anything out of the ordinary.
