The Femullet And Kristen Stewart Mullet

The 80s saw many female rock stars sporting mullets and more recently we saw the kristen stewart mullet. The recent emo and scene trends allowed us to look back at these styles and reinvent them into something brand-new. The femullet is edgy and sexy version of the male version sported by country musicians such as Billy Ray Cyrus.

A mullet is ideal for those with a round shaped face, or those who want to accentuate their cheekbones or eyes as prominent features. It also creates the illusion of a longer neck.

The mullet is shorter at the top than in the back and can be worn wavy and wild, cascading and curly, or straight and spiky. The only criterion is that the back is longer than the front.

This haircut looks great no matter what the color. In a stark black, with the angular ends framing your face, it can really enhance thin features. The Japanese manga influence is quite evident in this style. A big difference between the short and long layers brings about an interesting look, especially when you use a flat iron.

Short upward layers and long layers that are asymmetrical, create an unplugged look. Alternatively, longer layers at the front create a more elongated look for your face. You can also play around with the scene look by combing the longer layers forward.

For a young, messy look, you could cut your hair into choppy layers that will frame your face. This looks great in a platinum blond with dark, smoky make up.

One of the benefits of a femullet is that you can really play around with your hair color, contrasts and texture. This is one style where you may use very light and very dark coloring together and it will turn out looking great. Alternatively, you can use one color, as the stylist did with kristen stewart mullet.

What Is A Mullet Haircut And When Did It Start?

So, what is a mullet haircut? Well, it's been around since the 60s and was very popular during the 80s with many hockey players. It has actually started seeing a comeback recently, thanks to the number of magazines employing models who enjoy the retro look. This hairstyle is cut short in the front and left long in the back.

There is a range of hair lengths left in the back. Hair can reach to the shoulders or all the way down to the waist. Mullet haircuts are more common on men and can be a fun change from the traditional buzz cut or flat top for the summer. Not everyone can pull off the same style of mullet, due to their face shape and hair type.

For instance, individuals with a long face might prefer a mullet that is longer in the back as well. The mullet can be left to do its own thing or altered for a bit of flair. Some men find that adding a little curl to the length in the back is best done with a mild perm. This can add a bit of body to even the thinnest hair.

Celebrities have even been seen sporting mullets pulled into ponytails or dyed in an array of colors. A few singers in the 70s and 80s had some fascinating mullets that caught on with the general public. Some men liked this hairstyle enough to keep wearing it, even today. Punk rockers have been known to combine a Mohawk with their mullet haircut.

No special care is usually needed with a mullet haircut. These can be washed, dried, and styled the same as any other type of cut. Achieving the perfect mullet cut can be tricky, especially if the person giving the haircut hasn't a clue as to what a mullet is supposed to look like. Taking a photograph along of the desired mullet will eliminate the question: What is a mullet haircut?
