How to Care for Your Mullet

Learning how to care for your mullet is essential to sporting a freshly styled mullet. While the cut itself is important, it takes some work to maintain the right look. Some styles may require very particular and extensive treatment to maintain. For the majority of mullets though, the following tips work great to ensure you get the most out of your hairdo.

1. First: Shampoo for Shine

   You've got a hairdo that attracts quite a bit of attention; you don't want to show signs of dandruff or unhealthy hair. Your stylist can help identify the best products for your hair. While they may cost a little more, they're worth the investment. Clarifying shampoos are a must and hair product certainly helps.

2. Second: Style for Success

   Using a razor to trim the edges between trips to the stylist keeps you looking fresh. The key to a successful mullet is creating clear separation between the front and back.

3. Third: Smooth with Serum

   While less structured mullet cuts do not demand hair serums, applying smoothing serum keeps your hair in place and adds shine to your look. Lathering your fine mullet with just a bit of smoother can do wonders for maintaining your look.

4. Fourth: Spray to Stay

   Use a thick, round brush to hold the hair in curls while blow drying vigorously. It might be uncomfortable as you do it, but the results are well worth it. After finishing blow drying, add generous amounts of hair spray to hold your feathered locks.
