Due to popular demand, well Kathrin threatening to chop my arms and legs off if I don’t write a blog soon, our fantastically wonderful Mullet of the Week competiton has been run. We’ve changed the format this time a little bit though. From now on it’ll be known as Mullet of the Month.
This month we have received entries from all corners of the globe but have concentrated on the quality of mull in Birmingham and the Midlands.
This month’s champion is Baldwin Barrett III, pictured left. He’s a born and bred Brummie and inherited his love of mull from his father’s side of the family. “I’ve never really thought about having another hairstyle” he says in his broad brum accent. 2 years ago he took over the family business when his father took ill. He renamed the salon “Mullets 4 U”. Since then he’s been spreading his love of this hairstyle and on Tuesdays he has special student prices. He has offered a 50% discount for all our guests as a result of us honouring his hard work and dedication raising awareness about “The Mull”.
A lifelong childhood pal of Ozzy Osbourne and a dedicated Metal fan this guy is a complete and absolute legend or leg end. Whichever, he’s my new hero.
He’s also offered all readers of the blog a handy little chart (below) for anyone interested in mastering the art of chip chopping the perfect mullet
