There's another animal tail. The rat tail. It's when the hair is typically cut short, but there's a small section in the back that's kept long. It's usually a piece no larger around then a finger and it's name comes from the fact that it resembles a rat tail

In Germany the mullet has an own name: "Vokuhila", which is an discripive abbreviation. In long its "VOrne KUrz HInten LAng" ("short in the front, long in the back").

Mullet is a fish caught in the rivers and lakes of the Southeastern US, but I have no idea how it got attached to a hair style. Possibly because the curl in the back reminded someone of a fish’s tail flopping on the deck or pier after being caught?

So glad you brought up canerows as opposed to cornrows. Black people call dreadlocks, locs. There is also a style that Americans call Bantu knots, but Jamaicans call chiney-bummps!

Animated you and your facial expressions hahaha

There’s also rat tail as well when there’s a small long braid at the nape if you’ve ever watched Coming to America Hakeem Eddie Murphy’s character had one and had it cut in the barber shop scene. Perms for Black people is how we we refer to relaxers which permanently straighten the hair. But it also refers to curly perms like Jerry Curls and Wave Nuevo (sp?) treatments. Dreadlocks as a term is coming out of favor with just locks or locs being the more favored term. Afro’s being called the Natural was a 60/70s thing now Natural hair simply means you choose to not relax/perm it and keep the natural texture an Afro is a natural hair style probably the easiest to do but there’s a variety of braids, twists and other hair styles that would be considered natural hair styled

Fun Facts relating to Hair and the German Language: Male pattern baldness is called "Geheimratsecken" in German. The literal translation would be "Secret council corners" ^^ We have also a haircut refering to Ponys, but it does not refer to the back of the head but to the hair wich is covering the forehead

Saved the best for last! I'm rocking a modern mullet!

My favorite hairdo name: the West German "Ossispoiler" for "mullet." Literally, it's "East German spoiler" ("spoiler" as in "wing on the rear of a car used to generate downforce").

In Dutch mullet: little mat (matje) Mohawk cockscomb (hanenkam) Quiff oily kuif (vetkuif)

The cultural or stylistic “80s” spanned roughly from 1983-1993. We remember the vibe of a time more than the literal dates. So, pale do remember the term “mullet” in the “80s”.

In South Africa a bald head is called a "chiskop". Chis: Because cheese is smooth. Kop: Which translates to head. So it means cheese head. Way to get teased with it.

I'm not sure if it quite counts as a style, since it's technically a technique, but I have what's most commonly called a "fade". While you can have a variety of cuts, it's most commonly a buzz cut where the hair progressively gets shorter on the sides and back until it's bald at the sideburns. It looks like it's fading, thus the name. From what i know, It's a predominantly black hairstyle, but it's fairly common for white and asian people too as of late. Since you can basically do it with any pair of hair clippers, I'm sure it's been around a lot longer than I think. The reason I'm not sure it technically counts is because I've seen the buzz cut version just referred to as "a fade", but it's also often combined with other hairstyles, such as a quiff, in which case it's just referred to as "faded sides". As for other hairstyles, I have no idea what it's called, but whatever Michael B Jordan has in Black Panther. I've always liked that hairstyle, but my hair is super dense, so my curls don't really get long enough to easily do that style

I put my hair in a ponytail, even though I'm a boy.

I’ve heard that mullet comes from the fish. when left out it apparently starts rotting from the neck, as does the hairstyle…

My hair (when I had a decent amount of it) went into a fro, or a natural. I'm neither black nor jewish. It also tended into ringlets a little.

elvis had a pompador not a ducktail. a ducktail is basically a smaller, reversed pompador. (pompadors are pulled up and puffed to the front and top, whereas ducktails are puffed down and pulled back, like a duck tail)

Also on DREADLOCKS ... this is a term originating in Jamaica, used to describe the locks of DREADS, or Rastafarian men. These men were called Dread as a title of respect for their perceived spiritual enlightenment and closeness to God, leading them to be worthy of a godly "fear / dread". The term spread internationally with the fame of artists like Bob Marley.

I thought I'd throw my two cents in regarding "bangs". I believe they are referred to as the fringe in the UK, which makes way more sense. The style was named because the forelocks of the hair had been cut off like a bang-tail pony. Similar to a bob-tail horse. And eventually morphed into only being referred to as bangs. And in German that particular section of hair is called "der Pony".

Perm is short for “permanent wave”, a new chemical process that many trendy hairdressers advertised during the 1920s and ‘30s.

Patrick, you forgot to mention the rat tail, and mushroom cut hairstyles.

Awesome!

In Australia, the ‘mullet’ was most definitely a term used for the fashionable hairstyle of the 80s. In some parts of the country, it is still the height of bogan fashion.

one hairstyle that's missing here is the Beehive. plus more mention should've been given to the many different hair types, plus long hair (longer than shoulder-length) can be a style in it's own right.

I'm glad Austin powers found success after his spy career.

Many American black people, in the 20th century both women and men, process their hair to straighten it and style it in various ways. By the 60s many wanted to wear their hair in it's natural state. Growing it long and picked out it became known as the afro. The same hair cut short is what was known as a natural.

5:16 Perm is a blanket term used for different processes. People with straight hair can use a "perm" to add curls or waves to their hair. However, when people with naturally curly hair use chemicals to straighten their hair, they also call it a "perm" ...as in "permanent relaxer" as it relaxes the curl pattern.

Do a word origin and spread of "baby" I have recently learned that a bunch of languages borrowed the word from English? I'm curious how that came about.

There's also the very 80s American rat tail. All but a small but long tail on the nape of the neck is shaved and the remaining hair is braided.

just an interesting tidbit for you. when i was a child in the early 70s, people my mother's age(or thereabout) called perms by the original name which was not permanent but rather it was called "getting a permanent wave".

Last one ... .I daresay the term "mullet" was in common use before it became part of the song in the 90s.

Jesus Christ his hair is so amazing

Somehow I associate the pompadour with Elvis, more than the duck tail. I don't recall hearing it referred to as a quiff, though that doesn't mean much. For some reason I always thought the duck tail was when a little curl of hair is left at the neckline on short haircuts. This explanation makes more sense, but what will I call that little dingus from now on? Oh, the humanity!

2:20 I think its a fun trend personally.

Pretty good video, I like your narration, explanations, and light music. Constructive criticism though would be to just use a photo that represents the hairstyle instead of the microsoft-paint mouse drawings. I know they aren't intended to be "good" and it's just a fun style, but it isn't informative or even look like the hairstyles in some cases.

In Finnish hairstyle bun is called nuttura. I have no idea why that is :). How about in other languages?

oh I thought there must be some relation between the mohawk people and the hairstyle

I've got a really unique hairstyle. So unique that I have no idea what it's called. Maybe someone will know based on description. Okay so you have long bangs swept to the side. Then you have the back of you hair is shorter than he side hair/bangs. What is that called?

What about the “poodle cut”? Very tightly curled hair, cut in the shape of a mullet, but with the sides clipped close to the scalp. Just like a poodle in show clip 🐩

Did you mention "Mohican"? Sorry if I can't remember it, I might have got distracted.

This comes from the Hebrew koya which means corner slash side

another point to mention is that the jewish sideburns that you pronounced PAH-yot are actually pronounced PAY-ot or in yiddish PAY-os as in the a in paycheck. they come specifically from a prohibition in the bible of not being allowed to use scissors on your face hence the beard as well. also as a proud fellow wordnerd i should mention that as i do understand you are talking basically about the etymology there should be a mention of the fact that the fro or afro hairdo really came into being because of the political ramifications of the black power movement in the 70s and as they spent the 60s trying to get their hair to look like white hair they now wore fros to suggest black pride.

I guess it's a mohawk? Technically? I've hair up top, but not the sides or back, and it's pulled into a ponytail.

Um, I thought manbun was a term of derision to mock men who wear buns. The term has been effectively reclaimed by men who enjoy the hairstyle, similar to the associated word "hipster".

Ducktail is a way of combing the hair on the back of your head so where it comes together, it looks somewhat like a duck's feathers meeting at its tail, it's not an overall hairstyle and could be applied to many different hairstyles. Not sure how you got that one so wrong. Also, perms aren't just used to make hair curly, they're used to achieve all sorts of different hair textures. Some people with curly hair perm their hair straight. Some of your stuff is just poorly researched.

Are you telling me people didn't know this stuff already?

What about beehive?

Maybe u got some black in you idk lol r u got some tight curls and was lead to believe that’s a Afro either way idk and idc lol. But what hair type do u have?1a-4c. Figure that out and then u can figure out if it’s truly an afro. I mean ur blonde and white, the furthered thing away from a black person.
