Was there ever a trend that you wish that you didn't get involved in as a kid. Mine would be the curtain cut because my parents were like just give him that hair cut from TV lol.
DiscussionI didn't participate but the frosted tip trend was pretty lame in the 2000s. Guy Fieri never got the memo.
Guy said he once tried to dye his back and dress like a normal person before doing an appearance and no one recognized him. He's stuck with that look.
Yea its a part if his brand imagine and is honestly decent in marketing him.
If he dressed like a normal guy would anyone even talk about him?
Seriously and that song he made for shrek wasn’t bad either
This is my advice to Guy Fieri:
Never change.
Guy Fieri is like a frosted tip come to life.
My husband had the frosted tips when we met and kept doing it for a few years. Shit was sexy as hell.
Guy borrowed his look from my dad. They met quite a long time ago and guy asked my dad if it was cool if he could borrow it.
I had frosted blonde tips for my 5th grade school photo lmao
I had blonde hair already, so instead I did red tips, which I wore alongside my studded earring, yellow puffer vest, and a pooka shell necklace. I thought I was hot shit in elementary school lmao, but of course I also got plenty of shit for it as well.
I don’t care what anyone says this was a good cut of you had the hair for it. Not to be confused with the bowl cut which is giving Simple Jack.
This! I tried to rock the middle part and my hair just wouldn't do it. My best friend had it perfect though. I think he peaked in middle school though and it's been down hill from there for him. I'm nearly 40 now and still waiting for that peak though.
HA! I remember being in the 5th grade and the girls were going ga-ga over Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic specifically (who was rocking a messier version of the curtain cut). And I went to Supercuts or whatever and brought in a screencap I printed off and said, "This, make my hair look like this so the girls think I'm cute."
Ahhh, youth...
Ok, but Leo with that cut was top notch though. His was the best version of that cut.
Leo is a total smokeshow in Titanic
I thought it was hot.
I still do.
It's still better than the broccoli perm bullshit they're doing atm 😵
I like the broccoli cut for guys with actual curly hair.
Each to their own 🤷♀️ obviously people must like it, it wouldn't be so popular if they didn't.
It just makes me cringe, i can't articulate why. Same with mullets and those too-short fringes (bangs to folks in the US).
I hate micro bangs. I think they look like shit on literally everyone.
Yess that's the one! I couldn't remember the name. I dont understand why it's a thing, it honestly looks like a toddler cut their hair 😭
I think the broccoli cut is fine in all forms on Black men.
For the alternative if it’s done right it looks good.
Like I feel this is done well.
That beard makes him look like a Sims character.
It is kinda other worldly
I think the key to it working for him is that the long part isn't too long, so it actually looks well-proportioned.
That, and because he isn’t an annoying ass tween shoving a camera in everyone’s face screaming “skibidi toilet bruh!”
30 years from now, people who had that cut will feel embarrassed
Is this not just a bowl cut with your bangs combed?
Thanks for reminding me I got a bowl cut, or as my dumbass young self thought it was called, a "bull cut".
Dude I had a bowl cut for waaaaay too long
I want it back for us balding men
Technically it's supposed to get longer in the back. But it's definitely boy bangs
I’m a teacher, and one of my students has this haircut. It feels like a blast from the past every time I see him, haha.
That’s the butt cut. And it’s not as bad as some haircuts from the 90s.
to be fair aaron kwoks parted look is probably the best out of that type of hairstyle. because his ratios are just right. that's what i think. hard to pull of this hair style because the proportions have to be even more on point which a lot of hairstylists just can't don't give a dam on getting right with the customers.
I was more of a Beyond fan but Aaron's was on point.
beyond is awesome as they basically pioneered pop rock in the hong kong canto pop genre. pioneers.
I was so sad when Wong Ka Kui passed.
Yeah 1962-1993
Millennials for the most part are older than ka kui when he died at age 31.
My mom referred to the mushroom cut with a sneer of sorts. She’s so cool. Never let anyone tell me how to dress or anything. I was literally the least cool kid at school. But it’s a long game, being cool. You can’t burn out too quick chasing the lime light w bowl cuts when you’re 13
My older brother rocked the undercut, so I did for a few years, but went back to a crew cut before entering high school. Now I’ve got the classic business man cut which suits my luxurious hair.
Had the bowl cut until I started the flip around 6th grade. Luckily I wasn't allowed to get frosted tips. Not gonna lie 12 year old me with the hair flip and a gallon of clinique happy was a g.
I wanted this haircut and when I got it my parents kinda made fun of me saying I looked like I was from the 1920s 😂
Yeah, but men’s hair from then looked good. Think Leo DiCaprio in Titanic. Huzzah!
1920s is one of the best design and fashion eras ever, though!
Not gonna lie this look still kinda does it for me. To answer your question though I did some really tragic layering. Especially with camisoles

Uggs was the stuff!
Pretty nice hair cut, what is it you don't like about it?
Honestly, the fact that the choice was taken out my hands
omg I see my college students in 2024 with this haircut and am like teenage blipblewp would have loved you, darling.
I attempted a big surf wave for bangs (early 90s). My hair is super straight and heavy and the little splash wave I was able to make looked so puny. I think I did it for well over a year.
I had this exact hair cut, one of my greatest regrets in life....
It was a popular cut.
It’s a nice looking hair cut. Don’t see what the problem was.
I purposely asked for that hair...
What was Jon Hamm in when he was this young and with that haircut?
They use this clip in Kimmy Schmidt as a flashback, but it really is from a dating show he was on in the 90s. I’m guessing dating shows were a creative way to get wary career screen time.
Instant crush when guys had this cut
Honestly I like it, if I had a smaller forehead I probably would have tried it by now.
I don’t care what you say; Brendan Fraser’s cut from The Mummy is still my ideal hair cut and maybe one day I will have the courage to ask for it.
isn't this back now in the form fo the eboy haircut?
not better or worse than all the other hair cuts tbh
When I was a teenybopper, I crushed on boys with that haircut. Hell, when I was 18 I dated a guy who had that haircut and admitted to idolizing Leo for the style. He was a very pretty man and it was rather irritating being out with him due to all the oogling tweens.
Bowl cut says hello... I had a few bowl cuts way after they stopped being even mildly popular...
It’s literally the ugliest haircut 😂 it started making a brief comeback with gen Z but I think they very quickly realized they look terrible
I always got a fade I always wanna my hair looking like this😊
My hair was too thick to ever follow any 90s TV trends
This was called a skater cut where i would get haircuts when I grew up. They buzzed it close up the side a bit. I had such thick hair it was like wearing a wig lol.
Not this nonsense, but I used to have blonde tips on my hair as a young pre pubescent boy. I don’t see any young boys rockin that type of thing anymore, and frankly, it looked silly.
Either way, I am now bald and don’t have to worry about any wacky hairstyles anymore. Unless I let it grow out and look like Terry Bradshaw…
At least it’s not a mullet or a rat-tail.
The curtain cut was my weakness 😩 should I be embarrassed?
Nah. It’s kind of coming back, and I’m here for it.
My mom was stuck in the 80s. I had bangs from 0-18 yrs old. Not even side bangs, full on bowl cut bangs. For picture day in elementary school she would curl them up (also feathered then) sky high. Young me didn't gaf about my hair, but I cringe now.
My mom just buzzed my head because it was cheaper and easier - for them.
Anyway
Nah if i liked it i liked it. When in the 90s do as the 90s do. I wasn't exactly trendy as far as like clothing or style - most of my shit was 80s hand-me-downs.
When it came to like.. mtg, pokemon, skateboarding culture - yeah I was part of those.
Ngl I rock this look myself these days.
I wanted this so bad but my hair was too thick and couldn't stay parted
Is that jon hamm
yup
Holy shit that’s Jon Hamm
yes
Pfft the bowl cut was worse.
Like most of where I grew up, I learned makeup from Cholas and thus only ever wore black, brown & pink cosmetics. Thirty years later, I still swoon when I see a woman sporting brown lip liner with baby pink lip gloss.
It doesn't look good on me but that doesn't mean I will ever stop trying.
Hubby and I recently went to this beach town for a day trip that happened to have a lot of gen z kids walking around in groups and a few of the guys had this haircut!! We had a good laugh
we called it the McDonalds Doo and I had it for a couple years myself. Grew it out during my grunge phase to try and look like Kurt.
Why does the guy in the top right look like Don Draper?
I tried to get a bowl cut with the finest, straightest hair ever. It doesn't even look good on a person with thick hair but it's better. It was horrible on me and I deeply regret it but there was no talking me out of it at the time.
I don't know, the cut on the bottom left is looking pretty chic.
Brown lipstick. Looked like I constantly had chocolate all over my lips...
