This will allow you to easily wash, dry, and separate the pieces of your hair to give you an awesome spiky look. When getting your hair cut, you will want your stylist to use cutting methods which make your hair piece-y and choppy throughout your entire head. Many might say that this is a hardcore, stylistic version of the traditional mullet.
This particular hairstyle is shorter in the front and longer in the back. Jett’s haircut (as depicted in The Runaways) is short and choppy.
If you’re thinking about getting a Joan Jett inspired look, you will want to start by getting a fantastic haircut. Jett is also famous for her hard rock style, which includes her jet-black, edgy hairstyle. Joan Jett is a world renowned guitarist who got her start in the all girl rock-band “The Runaways.” Throughout her career, Jett has played a myriad of live shows and written many world famous songs. Published as “The Great Mullet Renaissance” in the August 2021 issue of Philadelphia magazine.Whether you’re an old-school fan of Joan Jett, or you simply appreciate her style as a result of Kristen Stewart’s adaptation of Jett in The Runaways, you are likely to appreciate all of Jett’s rockin’ hairstyles. “You know: ‘I always wanted a mullet, but I was a little bit fearful of it.’ And now? They’re just going for it.” “People have been inside for so long, and now they’re living out what they always wanted to do,” says Kolifrath. And you notice the person wearing it, someone who doesn’t mind taking a risk or raising some eyebrows. Because whether you love or hate the mullet, you notice it. It’s also polarizing, as rebellions often are. “It’s a rebellious shape,” says Anderson. Scroll through the Instagram account of either Philly salon and you’ll see a wealth of mullets: on men and women cut in messy, shaggy layers or shaved on the sides in pink and neon green, edgy and androgynous and wonderfully weird. “The mullet releases a lot of weight and lets the hair’s natural texture show,” she says. “The shag gives people the courage to then go even shorter.” (Of course, some people don’t need courage: “I had a guy in my chair,” Kolifrath says, “who pulled out pictures of Mötley Crüe and was like, ‘Go crazy.’”)įor Erin Anderson, owner of Fringe Salon in South Philly, it’s about function, too. “We’re seeing a lot of shags transition into a mullet, so they’re definitely softer and not as disconnected as what we were seeing in the ’80s,” says Rachel Kolifrath, a stylist at American Mortals. So while the overall concept of the mullet is the same (yes, it’s still shorter in the front and longer in the back), today’s cut has a distinctly modern vibe.
Style is cyclical, of course trends we vowed to bury forever - the power suits of the ’80s, the bucket hats of the ’90s - always resurface, twisted into new interpretations. (A founding father! In a mullet! How subversive!) It was a strategic display of austerity, worn to convince the French monarchy that the Colonies needed more financial and diplomatic support. And it’s certainly not surprising that it’s landed in Philly: In the days when high powdered wigs signaled status, Ben Franklin wore a “skullet,” a version of the mullet that features a bald crown ringed by long hair. It’s not entirely surprising, this mullet renaissance.
