Sydney private boys school Waverly College has announced it will cut students hair on the spot if they present with mullets and other hairstyles deemed inappropriate by staff
Students are being banned from school for their mullet haircuts as the 80s trend makes a comeback.
The hairstyle, made famous by the Beastie Boys, became popular during lockdown and has now prompted a move by principals to ban it.
Principals have warned any student who arrives to school with a mullet, will be taken to the barber to get rid of it.

A Sydney private school headmaster has warned boys sporting mullets they face a trip to the barber if they don t get rid of their 1980s hairdo. Leading hairdressers have backed Waverley College Deputy Principal Patrick Brennan s missive to students this month telling them the retro cut would not be accepted at school. In addition to the correct uniform, students appearance including hairstyles must be in line with the College expectations from day one, he said. The mullet haircut trending at present is not acceptable and students will be directed to the local barber or their preferred hair stylist to rectify any issues.
