Okay, so here's a question--can't seem to find any evidence of female mullets. Does the classic mullet profile only involve males? I'm having some uneasy memory flashes of me sporting something that came very close to this "style" in the mid-eighties. The lifestyle and...philosophy...(trying to remain politically correct here)...that tends to surround this hairstyle makes me suspect that women aren't part of this club. After all, "the wife knows her place"... ;)

I think Olvia Newton John have one for a while?

Wishful thinking on excepting the ladies from this...while in the minority, you ladies have more hair products and corded "hairaphanalia" to spice things up.

Check out classifications 9, 25, 74 and my personal favorite #94...I think it was a footnote to women's "sufferage" ;) ...the right to vote, and vote with bad hair... :P

I hope HELL is a nicer place than the church makes it out to be. I think I just hopped a cab on the expressway to hell!

:lol:

I think the worst example of the female mullet was back in the 80's when the top, front and sides would be permed, and the back would be left long and straight :blink:

I have to admit, in the early '90s I had a mini-mullet, just the last few inches of the back...my mom thought anymore would look ridiculous...I think she meant absolutely ridiculous.

My bird is looking at me like I'm strange since I'm sitting here laughing at my computer. #74 is hideous.

Yes--and sometimes if the back was longer, it literally looked like 2 different heads of hair :D

I was very radical. I hated shoulder pads and cut mine out one day. Then I kept getting asked if I lost weight!! :lol::lol: I did have big hair ... I loved it, my hair is big anyway. It's a lot easier to not have to load it with styling products to weight it down!

That has got to be one of the most hilarious websites I have ever seen. I have emailed the link to all of my friends, and now, thanks to its comprehensive research, I have it confirmed that indeed the female mullet has existed and will continue into infamy. OMG, the "sightings" for mullet #94: Behind trees, divorce court, Afghanistan... :lol::lol::lol:

It was all a bit top heavy--wasn't it! :lol: Even the smokey-eye/red lips were over the top! B)

Ah, the 80's--good times :P

I love how those of you who speak English English, as opposed to American (both US and Canadian) English, use the word brilliant! An Irish priest I used to work with used it regularly. Around here about the only time anyone uses that word is when they're describing someone very smart.

Brill!! :lol:

:blink: Over here we had the opposite.Curly at the back (long),straight at the front.

Either one was truly disgusting!! :lol:

What about the "bow-heads", you know, those barrettes with a big bow attached to it?

oh, but how could I forget the neon shoelaces and the "layered look".

Let's wear all of our clothes at once, but cut them all up first!

Don't forget the first half of the 80's was all about being preppy. I still have my 1982 penny loafers!

Preppy was the style up till Flashdance.

Speaking of John Travolta, now HE has a a head of HAIR! I think his hair has starred in more movies than he has...It had the lead in...Saturday Night Fever, Grease, Pulp Fiction, The Boy in the Bubble, and that awful sci-fi movie he did a few years ago...wait, I'm not sure if his hair made an appearance in that one... :P

Yep, he definitely had the "do"!

Also, remember that lovely 80's "feathered back" look?

Alert! I have recently seen a few women (not men yet, thank gawd) sporting the feathered-back look again. Horrors. Actually, aren't mullet-haired guys often married to women who have the perpetually feathered-back, blonde 'do? I think so...you guys from Alberta? Southern States?

I think you're right ... and where I used to live their favorite mode of transportation was a nearly broken down pickup truck ... that's because our mullets were of the redneck variety.

But wait . . . according to all the teen magazines on the racks at the checkout, feathered hair is back IN. Farrah Fawcett, you're in style again (especially since she basically never changed it)!!!!!

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Body dysmorphia experience. When I was at the worst of my gluten problem I use to get chronic constipation; I would spend long time sitting on the toilet. One day as I was tired of sitting, I rested my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees, as soon as I felt the pressure of my elbows on my knees the perception of my body changed to that of a tarantula...

      Gluten related ??

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on. I'm not eating gluten as far as I know. However, I'm not sure of cross contamination. My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ??? if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease...

      Body dysmorphia experience. When I was at the worst of my gluten problem I use to get chronic constipation; I would spend long time sitting on the toilet. One day as I was tired of sitting, I rested my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees, as soon as I felt the pressure of my elbows on my knees the perception of my body changed to that of a tarantula; I visualized and it felt real. The perception went away as soon as I removed the pressure on my knees, I deducted that the pressure of my elbows on the knees caused the sensation, so I repeated the position and the sensation of having the body of a tarantula happened each time. I have not had that experience since then because I started a gluten-free diet short after. I wonder if those people that look distorted to themselves in the mirror could have something similar but with the responsible sensory contacts located on their feet. I want to document this experience because it might help some research or others, it sounds crazy but I feel the right thing to do is to share it.
