This is not nearly as bad as the broccoli fuck boys although this definitely was the hairstyle of the future fuck boys I was in elementary school with back in the day.
The high and tight was good, I liked it.
It’s this a crop of Ellen DeGeneres?
That 'do is pretty slick though
Imagine a haircut like this instead. It was all the rage in Brazil back in 2002:
Why would anyone do this
It’s like the anti-mullet: trash in the front, nothing in the back.
is this because of Luiz Ronaldo or was he just part of the trend?
Yeah, that was Ronaldo’s haircut during the 2002 world cup
Teenagers have had broccoli hair for the past 5 years. It’s boring. Invent a new fad already, I want a new thing to make fun of
How about carrot hair. Or maybe, like, mashed potato hair?
That’s a fucking normal ass haircut wtf
I recognize it’s not the same haircut, but it makes me think of this guy:
The guy from the UK Inbetweeners has the haircut.
Too long on the sides
Simon is the first person that came to my mind when I saw this post. Also the way you said UK Inbetweeners made me realize there’s also US version. Even the thought of it sounds terrible and I won’t even bother to check it.
the only good UK show that the US remade was the office. fight me.
I’m bad at faces, but he reminds me of a combination of Mike Birbiglia, Seann William Scott, and Anders Holm. (I had to look up two of those names.)
I’ve seen that format and keep wondering who that guy is. But I lack terms to look it up and then I forget.
Who’s that?
The other commenter in this thread theoretically answered your question. I’m not familiar with the character, so while they’re probably correct, I can’t make any observations on it. I only know him as the “You guys are getting X?” meme guy.
I think your original question suggests you are familiar with the meme, but just in case I misinterpreted, here’s a random example.
Will Poulter in the movie “We’re the Millers”.
Just look up “eyebrow actor”, lol
Still a normal haircut
It seems a bit much to me, as well as a bit dated, but not unusual, interesting, or offensive enough that I would look twice if I saw it in person. I agree, it’s not atrocious.
Nah, not even. That’s a Flick, the minimal-effort 90’s-00’s version of the Greaser’s pompadour.
Still a hell of a lot better than that beiber swoosh hairstyle.
Bad hair? Lemme ‘mullet’ over.
When I was a teenager, the boys all had the Justin Bieber side swept kinda look
Nothing says “I will put something in your drink” quite like that haircut.
Is there a popular men’s haircut that doesn’t say that?
Broccoli hair? (quick duckduckgo) oh, you mean an 80s perm?
I just assumed they meant the ramen do.
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.
Objectively glorious.
culture peaked
This picture may represent humanity at its peak.
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 hear it’s better to burn out than to fade away. I think that’s the anthem of 2025 America.
Denim pants, shirts, jackets… jfc they had it figured out
“What do ya waaaant?”
The Era of Aquanet.
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.
The broccoli hair of Gen Z and alpha is a revival of the '80s broccoli hair. Ultimately, we are mocking the boomers and Gen X.
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.
