Begging Kate Gosselin to Resist the Reverse Mullet
Let me start out by saying I’ve only caught a few moments of Jon and Kate Plus 8 here and there. Watching two people try to corral a classroom’s worth of children just isn’t my idea of a relaxing way to spend an evening. I don’t watch Biggest Loser or The Amazing Race either. Who needs to witness all that back breaking labor?
All this to say I don’t know anything about these people, the way they raise their children, or the alleged affair that’s steaming up the tabloids I furtively peruse in line at Wal-Mart.
But I do know a bit about hair, short hair in particular. And I can see, Kate, that your current haircut is either a gross error in judgment or a desperate plea for help. In either case, I beleive you deserves our support in moving beyond this catastrophic period in personal hair history.
I say this out of love, I really do. Because I have been there. I understand all too well the frustration of short cuts that don’t fall quite right, the grow out gone wrong, and the yearning for a just a few wisps to hide the damage done by tiny crows who’d track up our still fabulous eyes. I’ve been there. I get it.
The temptation is strong, but whatever you do, you must resist the reverse mullet.
Not since the pre-Miley’s-Dad Billy Ray Cyrus have we seen a public figure with hair so disconnected. Your hair screams indecision, but dear, you just can’t have it both ways. It’s not your fault. Clearly your hairdresser is to blame. Shame, shame on the cruel cutter who does not extol the virtues of blending. Not nice. Not nice at all. Seriously, Kate, call me. I’ll give you a number.
And it’s not just about you either. If you won’t do it for yourself, do it for every other woman who’s looking up to you, who’s sitting out there right now watching some rerun and thinking that’s it! That’s my next haircut! Save her. Don’t let another sister in short hair fall into the trap of soft in the front, spiky in the back.
Just say no to the reverse mullet.

Oh Lela…I like her hair. But of course, I have a style very similar. ha Wait is this really in intervention for me in disguise?
she looks like a mutant hedgehog
I’m afraid she’s already started a trend (but don’t worry, I’m not going there!)
I read somewhere that she compared her hair to Jennifer A’s from Friends and claimed everyone wanted it, but some couldn’t pull it off. Um….
I swear I cringe every time I look at her. That hair is horrible.
Oh, and Cammy Jo…your hair is nothing like hers.
Yo – McCain, It’s all about the blending.
Hedgehog, hmmm….
Unfortunately I do see this haircut cropping up all over the place and I think it is right to be afraid.
Oh dear, as someone who is struggling over trying to figure out the “right” short haircut for myself, all I can say is I cringe when ever I see Kate’s hair. THANK YOU GOD my hairdresser steered me away from that!
AHAHAHA!
THAT IS THE BEST!!
it looks like whoever did Kate Gosselin’s hair changed their mind about what they were doing half way through styling it, then just didn’t bother fixing the other half
Mommy – I think we all can agree that this is NOT the right short hair cut. For anyone.
Erin – thanks!
Nomad – Maybe she was just really rude to her stylist and it’s actually a revenge cut!
