What Is a Modern Mullet?

How to Cut a Modern Mullet: A Barber's Guide

  1. Start With a Strong Fade or Taper: A skin fade, drop fade, or tapered sides offer the contrast that defines a modern mullet.

  2. Keep the Length in the Back: Maintain intentional length in the back with a choppy, layered finish or a smooth drop.

  3. Add Texture on Top: Use scissor-over-comb or point-cutting techniques to give volume and flow without bulk.

How to Style a Modern Mullet

  • Apply Sea Salt Spray or Texture Paste: Work into damp hair for natural movement.

  • Blow Dry with Direction: Push hair back and down, lifting the top for volume.

  • Finish with a Styling Cream or Clay: Use depending on your hair type for shape and hold.

Who Should Rock a Modern Mullet?

It works well on:

  • Straight or wavy hair

  • Medium to thick textures

  • Oval, square, or heart-shaped faces
