That's a fucking normal ass haircut wtf

[–] interpolate@lemm.ee 4 points 39 minutes ago (1 children)

I recognize it's not the same haircut, but it makes me think of this guy:You guys are getting meme guy

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 points 14 minutes ago

Still a normal haircut

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 4 points 37 minutes ago* (last edited 35 minutes ago)

Bad hair? Lemme 'mullet' over.

When I was a teenager, the boys all had the Justin Bieber side swept kinda look

Broccoli hair? (quick duckduckgo) oh, you mean an 80s perm?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 14 minutes ago

I just assumed they meant the ramen do.

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 3 points 49 minutes ago

I already posted but since I had to Google what a broccoli cut is, I felt the need to link something for old people like myself.

That said, these all look the same to me. It’s 35 pics of the same thing. It needs an extended Office Pam meme that spans pages. More fascinating, the article stated this hair involves actual perms. Perms. The 80s are back.

I was born in the 70's so i just get violent flashbacks

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

This is definitely one of the more ridiculous and unattractive coifs out there, and it spans generations. Ben Affleck or Alister of Dragon Age anyone?

What’s wrong with that haircut? It’s neat and looks good and ladies like it. That broccoli cut is just atrocious.

When I was a kid it was the bowl cut, now that’s a travesty. The haircut in the picture is nice

The Suebian knot, a common hair style 2000 years ago. I'll take the broccoli over that.

But I'll like the viking hair styles more.

But I'm just a lazy fuck with a common ponytail because I don't want to visit a hairdresser every few months.

How about we let people style their hair however the fuck they like. I see all these comments ridiculing different haircuts as if being fucking apes with hair going in slightly different ways at different lengths blabbering on about which way is better wasn’t the ridiculous part.

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 4 points 2 hours ago

I never had that cut, and it came a generation or two after mine, but it looks fine to me.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 4 hours ago

Yeah, but you didn't have to go get a perm done for that style. You just got a $15 hair cut.

culture peaked

The Era of Aquanet.

This picture may represent humanity at its peak.

I hear it's better to burn out than to fade away. I think that's the anthem of 2025 America.

Denim pants, shirts, jackets... jfc they had it figured out

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 18 points 4 hours ago

This was the time when rock stars wore heavy makeup, painted their nails, had long lucious curly hair wore pants that cut off circulation

Nobody said they were “gay” or “trans”, they were just rock and fucking roll and whatever they wanted

It is the right of younger generations to confuse older gens with their style and older ones to be confused/offended by them. A tale as old as time.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 27 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

No way, broccoli hair is significantly worse than almost any other hairstyle.

You couldn't convince me broccoli hair was started as a meme to see if people would make themselves look dumb to follow a trend.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 points 17 minutes ago

Yeah, the haircut in OPs picture is normal, if they wanted to show and idiotic haircut it should have been the manbun.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Calling it a broccoli haircut is unfair to broccoli...

It's the haircut of Gen Z fuckboys. The scum of the generation, not the generation as a whole

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

more like curly pube topper

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 80 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I've never had hair like that, but the pic seems like a pretty normal haircut I've seen from mid-90s through to now

[–] sh00g@lemmy.zip 24 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

It's basically just a crew cut...AKA one of the most popular short haircuts of all time!

[–] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 20 points 5 hours ago

Yeah but the signature of this was the propped up "wave" in the front, I remember that being huge through elementary and middle school in the 90s

Isn't that a Caesar? It's combed forward which makes all the difference.

[–] adam_y@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Round our way it is still mullets and Ned Flanders moustaches.

Good for them. I could never pull that off.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 53 points 8 hours ago (5 children)

The early 90's mushroom haircut trend was worse by far

[–] Thorry84 47 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Once the butt cut was peak hair.

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

Is that five different people?

If you can’t bully children for their terrible haircuts, why even perpetuate their creation?
