3. I had a mullet as toddler, wasn’t by choice lol. I was born in the late 1980’s and it was the style back then. As a preteen I went through a VERY brief JNCO jeans phase. I never had frosted tips but I knew lots of people that did when it was the thing to have.

4. I had a rat tail and a duck tail. My grandma hated the rat tail so much that she cut it off while I was sleeping. Fortunately, I never used Axe body spray, but all my friends sure did 😂

5. Permed mullet. It looked like I had a squirrels tail on my neck.

6. Rat tail.

7. Clean shaven. It looks good, but ain’t nobody got time for that

8. Let a chick in high school give me frosted tips.

9. I started growing hair on my chest as a young teen and would sometimes shave it off, I think as some kind of weird awkwardness about going through puberty? Now if I could go back in time I would tell my younger self to rock that manly chest hair with pride – and in fact my dad basically did just that, but being an awkward teen I denied I was shaving it and changed the conversation.

10. long sideburns that look like lightning bolts

11. white boy dreads

12. Bowl cut

    God dammit, I squandered what precious time I had with hair in a bowl cut

13. I was into the grunge scene in the early 90s.lots of flannel. Holy shut was there flannel.
