Intro
Remember the mullet? Yeah… that wild, “I-do-what-I-want” haircut from the ’80s? Well, it’s back. And no, it’s not exactly like your uncle’s old school version. At QS Barbershop here in Rotterdam, we’ve been giving it a fresh spin, the burst fade. Think of it as the mullet’s cooler, cleaner cousin. Still got that rebellious vibe, but with edges sharp enough to cut glass.
Where it started
The mullet’s been through some things. Rock stars, football players, that one guy in the neighbourhood who was always ahead of the curve… all rocked it at some point. It’s that whole short-on-top-and-sides, party-out-back deal. Or as the old saying goes: business in the front, party in the back. And yes, it still makes us smile every time we say it.
From mullet to burst fade
So here’s the twist, the burst fade. Instead of just chopping it short in front and letting the back grow wild, the fade curves neatly around your ear, blending into the longer hair behind. If you throw in a textured “mat” at the back? Man, you get this perfect mix of casual and clean. It’s like, “Yeah, I care about my style… but I’m not trying too hard.”
Why people love it right now
- Not your average cut, you’re not gonna walk past ten guys with the same style.
- Works whether you’re in a hoodie or a suit.
- Clean edges that make you look like you’ve just stepped out of a fresh photoshoot (without even trying).
