Mullet (haircut)

The mullet is a type of haircut, in which the hair is long at the back of the head (usually at least to the shoulders), but cut shorter on the top, front, and sides of the head. The result looks like long hair from behind, but short hair from the front. In the United States the mullet was trendy in the 1970s, 1980s, and early '90s, but is now associated with the rural and working classes. As a result, it has become the subject of ridicule in some circles. The name "mullet" was first put in print by Mike D of the Beastie Boys, and it has now entered into common parlance.
