What was the millennial equivalent of the "broccoli cut"? I want to make fun of these uncs in the other threads.
Yes, frosted tips.
>>18677294Frosted tips, but it wasn't nearly as prevalent as broccoli cut (or the faux mohawk), nor has it somehow managed to survive not just Zoomers but Alphas, too. Fucking horrid.
>>18677294Mostly had an unfaded Caesar for me because I was boring as a kid. There was a short while that the spiked front Caesar was a thing.I also remember curtain bangs being popular with the skater kids, but that was probably a holdover from the Xers.
>>18677294Spiky frosted tips was definitely a Y2K thing, but I wouldn't call it a defining style for millennials.
Middleschooler millennials had frosted tips, adults with frosted tips was late Gen X.The broccoli hair equivalent was this shit.
>>18677324>short while I still see guys wearing their hair that way to this day
Scene and emo haircuts was the defining millenial hairstyle.Asymmetrical fringe covering one eye, lots of dye jobs, hairstraighteers everywhere, Frosted tips is more of a gen x thing, that millenial kids may of adopted for a brief time around 2000.>>18677359hair wasnt curled, was much more straight than this.
>>18677371>Scene and emo haircuts was the defining millenial hairstyle.Millennials popularized it insofar as the ones styled that way were mostly millennials, but it's far from being definitive of millies' hairstyle like the broccoli was for zoomers.
>>18677294The thing is that millennials weren't as uniformed in style and haircuts as zoomers are because social media wasn't as prevalent back then.Guess you'll have to stick to (deservedly) laughing at the low rise skinny jeans they refuse to stop wearing.>t. Xennial turbounc
>>18677393This. Every group had it's own thing going on. If you had a haircut from another group you'd get mocked for having a "faggot" hairstyle. Later hipster replaced faggot as the popular neg word as we got older and everything became a political correctness jerk off session.
>>18677302That's absolutely it. >>18677371Basically nobody actually had these where I grew up. Or maybe it came about after I was already done with high school (mid 00s) and there are millennials who were in high school up to the mid 2010s technically. But frosted tips were fucking everywhere for a bit in the early 00s. Somewhere between 1 in 5 to 1 in 10 guys had them at my school at some point, but often they would not keep the look for longer than a year tops.I don't have much chances (or care at all) to interact with middle or high schoolers today but there is a place I like to eat across from a high school and if I time it wrong and go there during lunch break they will swarm it and make a huge shitty line. Tons of these little faggots have the broccoli shit going or something that looks sort of like it, like a half assed version that looks sort of like a bowl cut only sloppy and half broccoli'd. At least I don't see too much of those fades with shit buzzed down to make lines and patterns etc because that is like Island Boys tier bad taste.
there is nothing as bad as broccoli head for Millennials, you'll want to look up the Jerry curl.
>>18677371>Scene and emo haircuts was the defining millenial hairstyle.Lolno. Those kids got their ass beat at school. Cool guys had this haircut or a regular haircut. Nobody did that gay shit other than the weirdos.
>>18677441We're gonna put Gen A in a Velour track suit, a Jerry curl, and some Gucci slippers.
>>18677294Have you sucked your daily dose of cock, zoomzoomcunt?
>>18677452I am 33 and remember this being the meta
>>18677452>Those kids got their ass beat at school.keep dreaming obesityfat
>>18677393>>t. Xennial turbouncYou're definitely a Gen X, cringelord.
I always called it "coconut hair" so I googled it and found this thread. early emos had this hair too but dyed jet blackhttps://old.reddit.com/r/decadeology/comments/1i1nnjl/what_was_this_hairdo_called_it_was_everywhere_in/
>>18677294 You have to understand that mens' fashion was still trash all the way through the 2000s Even more so for teenagers with undeveloped frontal corteces regardless of clique or subculture they identified with at the time. That said, take a look at pic related from 2008. You'll notice most of the boys are rocking caesars of some variation. 1 boy has a buzzcut which was also pretty common while there is 1 boy with long hair.
>>18677302I think frosted tips is more gen X
>>18677551Little overlap sure, but it was very popular with millennial kids born in the 80s.
>>18677294the one I really didn't like but was very popular in the late 90's and early 2000's was this one, with no dyed hair, just tons, tons of gel
>>18677555another example, where I lived guys didn't let their spiky hair grow that long though, so they looked like capybaras on the head
>>18677294>>18677302this was Gen XMillenial was some flavor of emo cut for sure
>>18677513>t. Got beat up at schoollmaoBro, I didn't say I condoned it. That was fucked up, but that is what happened.
>>18677557>this was Gen XNigga, both the actor and the character were born in 1986. Stop being retarded.
>>18677554I get that it was popular with the kids, but that's because it was popular with the celebrities who were older than them. Nsync, bsb, etc. were popular WITH millennial children but not millennial themselves. JT is the only millennial by exactly one year, the rest are late 70's babies, and sugar ray is 1968. They popularized it, and it fell out of fashion very early for millennials.Whereas the emo shit was kids and older kids that all feel into millennial range.>>18677559Use your fucking brain to think one level deeper before being a sperg, yeah? Read above
>>18677452Yes, this was the predominant haircut across all little social genres. I consider it emo desu but it's certainly not scene shit.
>>18677294Millennials don't fear cringe like the lesser generations do.
>>18677452You must have gone to school in one of the retarded states.
Frosted tips, curtains, then crew cut in my experience. Bowl cut was in for a while too.
>>18677561You're one retarded zoomer. Holy fucking shit. Do you really believe that trends that go mainstream among teens manifest organically in a vacuum instead of the teens imitating what the people in their 20s are doing? Are you really this stupid?
>>18677570My brother in Christ, that was my point. Frosted tips came from genx, young millennial teens imitated it. Long/emo hair came from older millennials, young millennials imitated it and expanded it to gay scene shit. Your reading comprehension is zoomer level, I don't care what your age is.
are the broccoli heads supposed to be the cool kids?there were distinct cliques back then so there were several hairstyle but the popular "looksmaxxers" of the day did have the gelled bleached spikey hair. Most of them ended up horrible alcoholics,
>>18677324This was far easier than broccoli hair.Hot air blower + comb --> this.If you add hair products, it is even easier. Also, nobody cared if you had it or not. There was no monoculture produced by social media, you had YOUR group and they had theirs and everyone got along even if it required some fights (which nobody filmed for online posting).
>>18677302As a millennial, it was very rare for people to actually get this. At least over here in Europe. What was trendy was copious amounts of hairgel.
>>18677513It is true though, Emo was a very niche subculture that ironically only got big because everyone was making fun of them on the internet. Same as goth and "alternative".
>>18677551GenX was NOT frosted tips. GenX was already grown uip when Malcom In the Middle came out.
>>18677324this is more accuratewhoever frosted their tips was deemed a faggot, like why are you dying your hair like those nsync homos bro? you a fag?
zoomer world is the flattening of personalitybasically a herd of homosexual bimbos who can’t even into how small talk functions
>>18677294The poor kids with straight hair had bowl cuts, the Mexican kids had gelled spiky hair, and us negros had fades and sharp hairlines.
the trend went frosted tips > spiked with gel > fauxhawk > bieber cut
>>18677294warrior cut
bieber hair?
>>18677670And caesar or crew cut somewhere in the early to mid 00's.
Friendly reminder that the "broccoli cut" is a modern comb-over, that's why it has survived so long.Assume that anyone that has this haircut is balding.
All the retards in the threads posting frosted tips when that was late stage Gen X. Millennial fuck boys were rocking this gay ass shit. The man bun
>>18677558obesity speaks!
>>18677294Nothing is as bad or as prevalent as the broccoli cut for Gen Z. It's like it was mandated since birth.
>>18677768Some were, but others were rocking frosted tips. It's not late stage Gen X. Half the kids in my high school had frosted tips I graduated in 2001.
>>18677630Almost all recycled trends from the 50's
>>18677302Nah that was Gen X. >>18677294Fauxhawk in the 2000s, undercut in the 2010s
>>18677294Looked better
>>18677555Jesus, I forgot how disgusting it was>get into a brawl>your hands are covered in greasy crap
>>18677573>Long/emo hair came from older millennialsNo, dipshit. That came from younger Gen X. Think Lostprophets and MCR. The most of the original members were all born in the '70s. They're Gen X. But the style was more popular with the millies than Gen X. That's my point, retard: The stuff that people in their 20s and 30s are doing may not be popular with their peers, but may find traction with teenagers. Your zoomer brain lacks the ability to comprehend that just because something is idiosyncratic to one group doesn't mean that it was native to that group and vice versa.
>>18677768Fag buns didn't get popular until millennials were already adults. Even so, it was always more of a hipster thing.
>>18678289Musicians have always been older than the target demographic.
>>18678289>Long/emo hair came from older millennialslolno. it came from middle-millennials. older millennials were into goth. >gay scene shitobesity speaks.
>>18678313Not always, but in the case of the teen demographic it normally is which is one part of the point. The other part is that certain trends young adult celebrities do don't cross over to their peers, but find an audience with teens. Therefore that trend is associated with the demo that proportionally applied that trend more often regardless of whether they came up with it or not.
>>18677551gen-x had a lot of shit, depending on the scene. shaven heads, side cuts, frosted tips, mohawks, normal fucking haircuts, the lot.
>>18678145>undercut in the 2010sshit was everywhere in the early 90s.
>>18677294Gino flip>>18677324We called this a gino flip
>>18677294We got laughed at for our frosted tips
>>18677294lmao you want to create separation between 2 generations that are basically the same practically just because it makes you feel special zoomers been aping off millennials since day one when youre aping off their culture and customs alwaysits the 40+ who are the enemy, we can all find ourselves in the dancefloor lmao, one day youll understand
The gayhawk was huge. Have normal hair, but sculpted into a mohawk but without shaving the sides like a Mr. T proper mohawk. Popular among gaybois.
>>18679018that's called a fauxhawk.
>>18679025con'tand it was probably popularized by Chris Carrabba.
>>18679026>Chris Carrabba.Literally who. This turd wasn't influential and didn't popularize shit. I had to Google him just to figure out who the fuck you were even talking about.
>>18679043You would know if you were older. His band had the title track to Spiderman 2. Was Taylor swift and her friends favorite band. Every girl had his poster in their locker.
>>18677324I always thought this looked fucking gay/
>>18679018>>18679025Sometime in yhe second half of the 00s there was this fauxhawk/mullet combo that was very popular. I swear one in every three guys had it in like 2006. At least outside of the US (that is, every country in which soccer is popular). I blame Cristiano Ronaldo for it.
>>18677294in my part of the world it was shit like this
