The butch mullet haircut at Timberlodge Parlor is a contemporary take on a bold, classic shape — short and structured up top with longer length at the back for a look that blends attitude with precision tailoring. This cut is designed for clients who want a style that’s eye-catching, expressive, and beautifully balanced.
What Is a Butch Mullet
The butch mullet incorporates the defining elements of a traditional mullet — clipped or cropped sides and top with increased length toward the back — but with refined shaping that keeps it looking modern, clean, and intentional. It’s a versatile style that can be sharp and edgy or softened with texture and layering.
This haircut works especially well for clients who appreciate a bold silhouette without sacrificing sophistication. Whether you wear it textured and tousled or smoother and controlled, the butch mullet offers a distinctive profile that stands out while remaining wearable.
Cutting and Shaping Technique
Every butch mullet begins with a detailed consultation to determine the ideal balance of length, texture, and shape. During this conversation, your barber considers:
- Face shape and bone structure
- Hair density and natural growth patterns
- Desired contrast between top and back length
- Maintenance preferences
Your barber uses a combination of clipper work and shear-over-comb techniques to establish clean sides and a defined top length. Strategic layering is applied to create movement toward the back, ensuring the transition feels intentional rather than abrupt.
Styling and Wearability
Once the cut is complete, we’ll help you explore styling options that suit your lifestyle. A light texturizing cream or matte paste can enhance movement and separation in the longer back section, while pomade or wax can help define the shorter top and sides.
Whether you prefer a casual, lived-in look or a more sculpted finish for special occasions, the butch mullet offers plenty of versatility. We’ll provide guidance on at-home styling techniques and product recommendations tailored to your hair’s texture and your personal aesthetic.
