A 2-year-old boy from New Mexico could soon be the "business in the front, party in the back" champion.
Neil Archuleta made it to the USA Mullet Championship’s top 25 in the contest’s kids division.
Living up to the all mighty mullet’s nickname, Neil’s hair is ready for a day at the office up front and ready to let loose at the playground in the back.
Neil’s mom, Brooklyn Archuleta, told sister station KOAT that Neil has had his legendary mullet since his first birthday when he got his first haircut.
Archuleta said her sister-in-law heard about the mullet competition on Facebook and when they heard about the kids division, they decided to enter Neil.
"He’s had this nice hair and we saw it and so we were like, 'wow he’s cute and you know he’s got awesome hair' so we just thought we would try it," Archuleta said.
When Neil isn’t tending to his soon-to-be prize-winning locks, he told KOAT he likes tractors, fire trucks and cars.
Brilliant! Long hair... without all that long hair!
Double-tap?
I rocked a mullett back in the early 80’s. Not Joe Dirt long in back but shoulder length. Think Duran Duran look.
Looked darn good in it.
LOL Here, too. I still let the party ‘locks grow down over my collar once in a while.
Had a relative years ago who thought her son was so adorable and beautiful, she entered him in “beauty contests” and was so proud of him and his trophies. Today he’s 33 and someone with IDENTITY ISSUES....
Those were the days of misspent youth.
We had a dairy farmer customer bring his son into the shop one day with a similar cut, apparently ordered by Mom. He said, “As soon as the milk price goes up, maybe we can afford to get the rest of his hair cut.”
A women’s way of encouraging men to look like “My Little Ponies”!!!!
This kid's license is already suspended...
Neighbor kid had locks like that until he started kindergarten ... kept getting referred to as “her, she, etc.” ... granddad and grandson got haircuts the next day.
He’s a cousin of mine, too. We are Archuleta’s from New Mexico
