There are not many things that withstand the test of time and you may have thought that mullets are definitely not one of them. But you’re wrong. There’s even an annual festival called "Mulletfest" in Kurri Kurri, Australia dedicated to honoring these hairstyles. London-based photographer Craig Gibson traveled there to photograph the best of the 2020 contestants.
"I'd seen the festival online and researched it by watching various YouTube videos and following hashtags and then I just decided to book a flight and go. The festival seemed quite loud, but I wanted to make something a bit quieter and fashion-based,” the photographer says to Bored Panda.
In his series "Kentucky Waterfalls," he captures some of the faces of the competition of all ages from all over the world. His aim was to capture a more intimate side of the event and its attendees, so he chose to wander around and ask people whether they would like to take an interesting portrait. Here are the best photos that he captured there.

The kid himself is cute, so maybe you'd have a different opinion if this haircut is attached to another face.

Just because you don't agree with a hair style doesn't make it abuse. There real kids being physically and sexually abused in this world.

I’m not a fan of the mullet, but if anyone can pull it off it’s this guy. It actually suits him well.

The key to nailing the mullet is the hair and the ‘tude - this guy definitely has ‘the look’.

Flat top, bald spot and all of it topped off with "Let 'er rip tater chip".

You know this kid is going to be driving a Firebird to 8th grade, playing drums in an adult 80s metal band, and hanging out with the coolest wrong-side-of-the-tracks kids.

Am I the only one who, instead of thinking anger issues or sociopath, just thought resting b***h face? People always think I'm pissed. Almost never am. Just the way my face is.

He’s got the look but gone too long at the back. A good mullet shouldn’t go below the shoulders or it’s just a bit too hippy dude

I don't like the shaved spots. It's like the hair cuts that are shaved from the part down.

Agree with Scagsy about the lack of mullet BUT the photographer reflected in the pupil is pretty remarkable photography!

AAUUUGGGHH!! I hate mullets (no offense to you people who have them, you are all perfectly fine I just disagree with your hairstyle choice) and looking through this list was absolutely grueling... so many of these people would look SO much better if they just cut that awkward strip of hair dangling from the back of their head!!!

Mullet life is supposed to be "Business in the front, party in the back" so why do they all look so angry?

I'm not a fan of the aesthetic of the mullet, but it sure is a very brave hairdo. I think you'd have to have a lot of character to pull off a mullet and be totally unfazed about the general opinion on them. Good on these guys.

I have to admit that some of the guys here looks pretty cute even with mullets. That isn't the most annoying haircut after all. "let me talk to the manager" Karen's hairdo definitely takes the cake. I hope that they won't make that convention and accidentally summon a satan waiting "too long" at the reception.
