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.
The Era of Aquanet.
Objectively glorious.
Is this supposed to be a dig at guys with long hair? Guys with long hair are sexy. Not my fault you feel intimidated by their masculinity.
Lol. Not at all.
culture peaked
This picture may represent humanity at its peak.
Denim pants, shirts, jackets… jfc they had it figured out
I hear it’s better to burn out than to fade away. I think that’s the anthem of 2025 America.
“What do ya waaaant?”
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
I’m sorry but this is erasure of the very real homophobia these glam metal bands experienced as part of later backlash.
And the guys in Skid Row tell of going out in public in the late eighties with “their hair stacked to the sky” and fighting with rednecks who called them removeds (Konow 296). While I never had to duke it out with anyone because of my long hair (the extent of my glam look), I did have similar experiences in the real world. Once, when with my mom at Huntington House, a now-defunct furniture store, a female sales clerk came up behind us and asked, “Can I help you ladies?” And on another occasion, when looking at clothes at Joslins in the Westminster Mall, a woman approached me from behind while remarking, “What do we have here? A lady looking at men’s pants!”
Glam Metal and Its Requisite Gender-Bending: Celebrated Until They Suddenly Weren’t | by Ron Baxendale II | Medium - https://ronaldbax2.medium.com/glam-metal-and-its-requisite-gender-bending-celebrated-until-they-suddenly-werent-cf979b24eb4a
If that’s the extent of the “bad” they got, then I’d say you’re wrong.
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
It’s basically just a crew cut…AKA one of the most popular short haircuts of all time!
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.
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.

I’m only surprised it’s the hair that’s silly. I thought the standard for intergenerational mockery was leg fashion. And unless you want to get on these kids for treating pajama bottoms like sweatpants… eh.
The leg fashion is joggers, but joggers are actually pretty dope so it’s hard to make fun of them. Snug and out of the way down low, loose and not constraining up high, they’re basically the perfect pants.
They still look silly.
We had tight-rolled, acid-washed jeans, so much better than sweatpants /s
Look, stupid as JNCOs are, they were intended for outdoor use. Possibly as a tent. That’d explain the size and all the carabiners.
Round our way it is still mullets and Ned Flanders moustaches.
Good for them. I could never pull that off.
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
more like curly pube topper
Yeah, but you didn’t have to go get a perm done for that style. You just got a $15 hair cut.
And a ton of gel.
walter white wtf are you talking about meme
Not me. Fierce flowing all the way from birth and having absolutely zero regrets. Damn I was drowning in pussy in my teenage years and didn’t even realize it back then. So… suck it, dumbass kids with your dumb little haircuts!
I hated that hairstyle when I was a kid too lol.
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.
I sometimes wish I had hair so I could change up my looks every now and then. I’m rocking a shiny bald head and have to change up my prescription glasses every now and then for a different look.
But then again, I only have to shave. Nothing more involved. It’s a very easy to maintain style, this genetic baldness thing.
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
See, that’s what the broccoli hair kids think too. It’s all cope.
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.
Is that viking hair cut even real or just some invention for movies and TV shows?
That’s real. Vikings did a lot of breading and added beads to beards and hair. They also sometimes shaved the sides and had asymmetric haircuts too. We know the hair styles from their graves. The length of hair varied. They let them grow out and cut them when they were long enough. You could do a lot of things with such long hair.
The viking hair styles you see in the movies are mostly real.
But vikings did not have dreadlocks. They probably didn’t know about them.
This is wrong:
And this is wrong too:
They also often wore necklaces and wristbands with runes made of silver, iron or wood. Something like this:
This was to either show your wealth or as an amulet. The futhark (runes) were not just an alphabet they also were magical characters. Each rune had its own special meaning.
For example ᚠ (fehu, engl. cattle) stood for wealth, abundance and security. You wore that rune if you wanted that. And smiths added runes to tools and weapons to add magical powers to them.
I just do a simple fade at home. Takes about 15 min and keeps my shampoo consumption manageable.
How do you knock out a fade on your own? The back of the head is a real bitch.
Practice and low expectations.
