The last few years haven’t brought the best things our way, however the return of the mullet, may be the exception. Whether you were alive in the ‘80s or not, we’ve all heard of and seen the classic mullet, and whether you like them or not, none of us can disagree that they are a show stopping look.
Though, there seems to be ‘mullet discrimination’ around the globe as the hairstyle can often have negative connotations around it, with people often assuming mulleted people to be lazy, uneducated or a joke. In fact, Iran banned the mullet in 2010 and venues in Australia have been accused of ‘mullet discrimination’.
With the rise in people growing mullets over these past two years, we here at Rooftopsquad.com want to discover what it’s like to have one, what it takes to maintain the iconic look and what kind of reactions you get from rocking the sometimes-controversial hairstyle.
Hoping to do just this as we are looking to hire someone to grow a mullet and become our very own ‘Mullet Master’!
The soon to be ‘Mullet Master’ will be paid $12,000 to grow the iconic ‘80s hairstyle over the next year, documenting their experience and reporting back on any experiences of ‘mullet discrimination’.
