Barber predicts new hairstyle will spread across Liverpool

Class of 1987, rejoice.

The mullet is making a comeback, according to one Liverpool barber shop.

Often referred to as "business at the front, and a party in the back", the style was hugely popular in the late 80s and early 90s.

Barbers No1 has branches across Liverpool including in the city centre, Huyton, Queens Drive and Wirral.

Famous customers include top-flight footballers such as Jordan Henderson and Roberto Firmino.

In an Instagram post sharing a series of mullet photos, the barbering company wrote: "Did someone say MULLET?!

"We've seen so many different variations coming in our stores recently! Most definitely one of the more bolder haircuts!

"Have you got what it takes? Book now across our 12 stores via our website!"

The photos show a varied range of mullets, in an assortment of colours and styles.

Rob McClintock, manager of the Barbers No1 store opposite Whitechapel, said the trend is coming back and is largely popular with students who have moved to Liverpool from elsewhere.

Rob told the ECHO: "We took over the 051 store in January, but because of lockdowns it feels like we've not long opened.

"It's definitely a bold look, and we're seeing people ask for them more and more.

"I think it started with students who have moved here but it could become a wider thing."

When asked if Rob would try one himself, he replied: "I can't, I'm bald."
