Argentina & Uruguay - Rat tails and mullets. Really?!?

Buenos Aires & Cordoba, Argentina and Punta del Este, Uruguay - January 15-28, 2011. These hairstyles didn't look good the first time around. So why would anybody ever decide to revive the rat tail and the mullet? Great question. I don't have the answer. But I do have the evidence to prove that these styles are all over Argentina and Uruguay.

The "new wave" multiple rat tail and the more "traditional" single rat tail.

The classic mullet: Business in the front, party in the back!

On the left: Shaking it up with the dreadlock mullet. On the right: Keeping it real with the single rat tail (and a little bit of mullet thrown in.)

There was no shortage of men willing to sport these monstrous hairstyles, if you can even call it that. Some of them even put their own, 21st century twist on it, with the dreadlock mullet, or the multiple rat tails. Classy!

I'm dreading (no pun intended) the idea that this 'style' could migrate north. Let's hope not!

Here are a couple more pics of colourful characters who also chose to wear their own unique styles.
