MEET THE “SHULLET”
WITH JOICO GLOBAL ARTISTIC DIRECTOR, RICHARD MANNAH
Question: What do you get when an 80’s Mullet and a 90’s Shag have a baby? Answer (for the Daily Double) is the “Shullet” – one of the hottest hair trends to emerge in 2021. Feathery layers, choppy fringe…it’s the best of both worlds, and Joico Global Artistic Director, Richard Mannah, shows you exactly how to deliver it!
We’ll just say it: The Mullet has a bad rap. It’s become a cliché of yesteryear, characterized by an abrupt, bi-level haircut in which the top and front sections seem utterly disconnected from the back. The Shag, on the other hand – with its tousled, spare layers — is far less maligned, but still considered a tad passé. And that’s where the Shullet, a morphed version of both iconic hairstyles, comes into play. As clients have been breaking out of their bubbles, they’re seeking rebellious, defiantly bold looks that symbolize edgy, effortless freedom: This low-maintenance cut, which grows out like a dream, is the answer.
Richard reveals the secret behind this cut…
“Inspired by both the Mullet and Shag, I worked shorter layers around the top and front to create shape, and then opened up the front area. Nothing was blunt-cut, as I wanted the layers and edges to be super-soft and seamless,” he explains.
