19 People With Mullets Who Showcased Their Haircuts At Mulletfest 2020
141Kviews
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.

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
He reminds me of the villian on dispicable me who likes to dance to michael jackson lol
ex model for gay magazine's and presently a bartender in San Francisco's night life.
I guess I just haven't been calling these haircuts by the right name. They just look tacky~
If this kid is of Native American descent it is all completely legit.
I actually love his face. Makes me want to get some clay and sculpt it
Agree with Scagsy about the lack of mullet BUT the photographer reflected in the pupil is pretty remarkable photography!
Is it just me or did anybody else hear "Dueling Banjos" playing in their head while scrolling through this? SQUEAL PIGGY!!!

I was actually giving them names too: Billy-Bob, Beau, Gator, Lamar-Joe, Roscoe T., Junior....
Um. Isn't that kind of racist? Would you do the same thing with people who have afros?

I willl downvote every one of your kind until the end of time
I'm left asking why. WHY?
why not? just because.. same reason some like brunettes ... we are people, we differ
brunettes and mullets are not the same thing at all, and i have no idea how you got that comparison. most people are brunettes.
Because they like Mullets. Does there have to be another reason?
Don't be jealous of the glorious mullets.
mullets are fun bro
OYYY, these flashbacks are hurting my brain

i am totally convinced they´re doing right. just do your thing. express yourself. keep on guys. the world is colourful.
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!!!
You should go to the trailer court where they live and give them a haircut.
Mullet life is supposed to be "Business in the front, party in the back" so why do they all look so angry?
'cause that's the front!
They all got caught selling meth.
Blue Steel - Zoolander. it’s an attitude as much as a look.
I feel a bit ashamed this is held and hour a way from my home!
I'm about 20 mins away!
This looks like a collection of meth dealer mugshots.
How did people who live in trailer parks get enough money to travel to Australia? Did they sell their pickup trucks and yard furniture?
Yikes, that came off as pretty classist. Why do you automatically assume that everyone who has a mullet lives in a trailer park and has to sell their goods to travel? How do you know that these people aren't already from Australia?
The description clearly states "all ages from all over the world". Next time try reading it before you post, you dumbass.
Ahhh, bless your heart. You're actually expanding your vocabulary. Dumbass must be a really big word for you. I'm so surprised you thought of such a creative word. Congratulations! I'd give you a gold star for your efforts, but I'm too damn lazy.
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.
OMG. That so-called “haircut” is ALLWAYS ugly og will allways be, 🙈🙈🙈
Pernille Dyre what
I have a mullet, sadly I don't have the balls to show you people....
Have someone in your trailer park take a photo of you.
That's okay. We can look at your mugshot from when you got caught selling meth.
I had to laugh at that reply....
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.
Those look like some really bad COVID-cuts! Sad...
Horrible!! And why???
woman with ugly hair in 200 different colors and shapes:"omg so unique and beautiful"...men having ugly mullets:"meh"
I like them
Man, sometimes you don't need a list to tell you who to stay away from... this is how nature says "Do Not Touch."
Wait, doesn’t everyone have a mullet right now?
Id ask why but well... its their hair problem (or not) not mine xD
Shull GaRett yes
Shull GaRett Good response!
Ok. Where is the picture? What did I miss!!!!!!

Business on the front party in the back
Yasss!! Now I know exactly what to do with my post lockdown hair
Lmao at all these people who clicked on this fully aware that it's a thread about mullets but the only thing they do is hate on them lol. Just wow
I felt nostalgic. I was very proud of my mullet in the mid 1980s
I'm guessing you lived in a trailer park at that time.
I was in high school in Poland
Has anyone seen the new trend where women get mullets? Omg I don't know how but it actually looks so cool on some people!!
When I was doing a lot of traveling/working in Portugal and Spain during 2010 I did see quite a few younger women with mullets. They were likely part of the counter-culture, but they wore them proudly.
Mullets are definitely coming back. In all my years being a hairstylist, this last week I've cut more mullets then I ever have before.
where are the women with mullets ??!!!! would love to see them
The cover photo chap looks like Nigel Thornberry from The Wild Thornberries
Most of these look like wannabe mullets. If you want to see a really nice one, go look at Billy Ray Cyrus when he first became famous with his song "Achy Breaky Heart". Now that is a sexy mullet! lol
I've been wondering if guys with mullets would ever wear their hair in a pony tail. Well, there is the answer ;-)
The most Hockey thing you can wear.
I think most of the mullets were quite well-cut... that hairdo was very popular among hockey players in Canada in the 1980s and 1990s... possibly still, I don't know.
#2 looks like Tesla. The rest look like trump supporters.
Mullets are like the Aussie signature haircut, I love the mullets they do look weird I know but man that took work to grow
Yes, some things haven't changed since 1975
Another period pic - 06306_n_13...64900c.jpg
Me in the actual day - 05717_n_13...6e8cb6.jpg
Now imagine all these blokes have Australian accents!
... I can't help it, mullets make their wearers look dumb. I know there is no connection between your hairdress and your intellectual abilities, but the first impression just is ... that.
nope. nope nope nope nope nope. NOPE
New word learned. We call them VoKuHiLa (vorne kurz, hinten lang - translation: front short, back long)
I don't understand this concept, is an american thing, or some kind of culture? Sorry, i'm from south america (Argentina) and all I see is strange hair cuts!
Actually, I believe their really popular in Australia, though, at least where I live, America has their fair share of mullets! It's supposedly "business in the front, party in the back", I suppose it does look a bit odd the first couple times, but their actually really creative and artistic if you look closely! :D
The only thing worse than a mullet is the little rat tail.
Oh dear god, the humanity!!!
Have you ever seen Jaromir Jagr, apostle of this monstruosity?
Aren't these all mugshots?
Awful.
The Kenny Powers vibe is strong with these
Just had my hair cut yesterday. Short hair is not forgiving as it grows out.
