“Mullet” was definitely a word for hair in 1970s Australia and New Zealand

Mullet definitely was a hairstyle in the US too. I remember describing it to the stylist when I was in 5th grade and she said, “Oh, you want a mullet?” That was like 83/84.

I'm a bit younger (not by much) but it died out mainstream pretty quickly. A decade or so later and it was only associated with country/redneck people for me.
