Zobey Barker, a hairstylist from Mystic, CT, shares her fondness for this cut. “Every woman who’s gotten a shag/mullet seemed instantly confident about themselves,” she says. Her ultimate rule in completing the look is to get bangs so it won’t seem like a conventional layered cut.
Shags and mullets suit ladies who love wearing their tresses down. “I don’t recommend shaggy mullet to women who prefer wearing their hair up in a bun or ponytail,” she says. “A lot of hair will fall out from your hair tie, scrunchy, or braid due to the amount of layering that goes into this cut.”
It’s vital to find a hairdresser who’s no stranger to the techniques used for this edgy hairstyle. Barker suggests an in-depth consultation to push aside your fear of losing length. It also helps you to have an open mind and faith in your stylists.
She states, “Discuss your expectations like how wispy you want your bangs to be or how short you like your layers to be. Talk about the at-home maintenance and the interim between your salon visits.”
Don’t forget to ask for some styling tips. Your hair would look different when it’s blow-dried, straightened, curled, or even in its natural form.
