Spike Fearn’s Hair: 70s Shag Meets 80s Mullet With Soft Fringe
Spike Fearn’s hair is serving serious nostalgia. Like the lovechild of Mick Jagger’s 70s shag hairstyle and Brad Pitt’s 80s mullet, this cool AF medium-length shag-meets-mullet – aka shullet – is the business.
Why We Love It:
He might be a relatively new kid on the block when it comes to starring on the big screen (catch him in Alien: Romulus), but Spike Fearn’s hair has got our attention.
It’s fun, it’s fashion forward and it’s flattering. Plus, it’s a standout look without being too edgy.
A textured, shaggy mop top look at the front with a piecey fringe, Spike’s hair is cut shorter at the sides for that soft mullet look, with the collar length hair at the back flicking out at the ends.
This is the perfect style for someone with fine or thick hair with a very light natural wave.
What To Ask Your Barber:
- If you’re Spike Fearn’s hair, you’ll need a good barber or hairdresser who has experience in fashion forward haircuts.
- It’s all about ensuring that the textured front and sides don’t look too much like a severe bowl plonked on top of a mullet.
- Spike’s hair on top looks a few inches long – and it has been point cut, or potentially razor cut, to get that choppy, slightly tousled texture.
- The fringe is eyebrow length and has also been cut into to give it texture so it’s not too blunt and heavy.
- The side of the hair has also been given a lot of piecey texture.
- At the back, Spike’s hair has also been given texture so that it’s not too heavy.
- The natural wave in his hair means it flips out at the side – which looks great.
- You’ll need regular trims every six-eight weeks to keep this looking good and stop it looking too heavy and flat.
- But if you get sick of the mullet vibe, simply get the length cut off at the back, and the rest of the cut shaped a little like this style sported by Corey Mylchreest.
Get The Look
- Spike Fearn’s hair has been cut really well, and a great cut means it shouldn’t be too hard to style. Especially not if you have a natural slight wave like he does.
- Apply a golf-ball sized amount of mousse, or a few spritzes of sea salt spray to damp hair, ensuring you distribute the product with your hands right through the hair from roots to ends.
- Blow dry the hair on medium heat, tousling it gently as you go.
- Use a vent brush at the back of the hair to flip it up at the sides like Spike’s hair.
- For extra staying power, use some heated straighteners to grip the hair and flip it out.
- When it’s dry, warm up a tiny amount of pomade between your hands, and tousle it through the top of the hair to give the texture a little bit of lift and movement.
- Use any left-over product to separate the fringe and make it look piecey.
- Finish with light hairspray to give it a bit of hold.
