A Fashion Request: Mullet Hairdoo?? I don't have Paint Shop and really have no idea how to create hairstyles, anyway. I have a Sim that badly, badly needs a mullet. I tried the one that is in-game, the one that is partially shaved, but it doesn't give poor Joe the desired look. I want the full-on, redneck, Billy Ray Cyrus, thinks it's 1987 and he's cool mullet. This is him with his wife.
I personally am on a one girl mission to remove mullets from the world! They frighten me! As I think there is evil stowed in those tresses!!! If you're successful, let me know so I can put one in the game & then I'll try killing him with the run with scissors object!! Goodluck & I hope I haven't offend any mullet wearing Simmers out there!
A mullet would require a mesh since the Maxis hair doesn't go far enough for what you want. I would suggest looking through some of the fansites which have hair to see if you can find something like you want. Is this for one of your trailerpark people?
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's worse than that, Mirelly. I come from the same part of the country that Billy Ray Cyrus comes from. My husband's cousin was his drummer before he went all "Nashville" on us. The "Achy Breaky Heart" video was filmed in a local theater in Ashland KY, right across the river from where I grew up. And, wait, here, let me show you, since no body ever visits this forums, it will be just between us girls: I married a mullet-head. Once upon a time, it was sexy!! Trust me, it does not look like that now!! LMAO!!! Neither does the bride, BTW.
that picture scares the crap out of me! please tell me that picture was taken ATLEAST 10 years ago? i challenge someone to write a book about the phsycological effects mullets have on people and society - i'd read it... dont have anything to add to your search for the perfect mullet (shivers), i just felt compelled to comment...
LMAO!!! Well, it was a little over 13 years ago, to be exact, and he had sexy hair!! SEXY, I TELL YOU!!! Now he keeps it so short you can almost see the scalp. All that pretty strawberry blonde hair, gone. So is about 100 lbs, which is a good thing. I hope the only thing that frightened you in that pic was Hubby's hair. The Bride looked okay, right?
LOL Kristal, this thread got resurrected yesterday and that reminded me that I meant to comment when you first posted and then I forgot. The bride looks just fine to me though I must admit that even with the benefit of hindsight and my faith in your judgment I find that mulletted groom a little worrying, bet he looks real cute now with shorn locks and a leaner bod Also meant to ask about how ubiquitous the wedding arch actually is in Stateside weddings. In the UK the weather is far too unreliable for all but the most ambitiously optimistic to plan outdoor ceremonies. Besides we're stuck with landscape that's got a 900 year old stone church on ev'ry hill
LOL!! I hadn't even thought about that arch! it does look a little like a Sims Wedding Arch! LOL!! I can't think off the top of my head about very many weddings I have seen without an arch. Even the ones indoors have one. The one I can remember that did not have an arch had a gazeebo in the park. It was a Scottish-Themed wedding, Groom and Best Man wearing a Kilt, Bride draped in a tartan over her ivory gown, Little ring bearer in matching tartan-plaid short-suit. The Groom is actually of Peruvian decent, and the bride (my sister-in-law) is one of those "mutts" that have some Scotch-Irish, some English, some German, and some Native American. But the Wedding was beautiful.
Must be a southern thing. I have rarely been to a wedding with an arch. I was married in a park, under a lovely tree by a waterfall, but most northern weddings I've attended have been in a church. Mullets are scary, but the entire 80's/early 90's were scary, fashion wise. My husband's cousin had a mullet up until about two years ago. How I longed to go after him with a scissors. Just a few snips to join the twenty-first century ... Minnesota has its rednecks, too. I think you were a lovely bride, Kristal. And I'll bet your husband is a hottie now, he wasn't bad then. I think it's what's inside a person that counts most, anyway ... and I've got a few photos of old haircuts of mine I wouldn't care to share, either ... anyone remember Flock of Seagulls? Oy, vey.
I've never been to a wedding that used an arch. My friend was a caterer. I used to help her occasionally because I'm a sucker for chocolate groom's cake. (It's the fudge icing.) Decorations, particularly in small areas, are dependent on the local florists' capabilities. If yours has invested in a wedding arch...they will use it often! lol Southern style receptions are usually very simple affairs compared to northern wedding receptions. Dinner is seldom served. Liquor is almost never present. I've only been to a few that had dancing. That's 85% of all southerners heritage. Scot-Irish were tribal or clannish. They were great assimilators. Known as Ulster Scots to the English they brought their unique religious practices to this country. You can thank them for our fundamentalist religious views and probably for the revolution, too. You can attend many highland games in this region and numerous Native Americans attend in full tribal regalia. They are proud of their Scot heritage. They share very similar cultures. (My grandmother was Cherokee and my grandfather a red-headed Scot.) I've heard that more people in North Carolina speak fluent Scottish Gaelic than they do in Scotland. On a side note...the word "redneck" was the word they used for themselves. The hair thing must depend on the time you hit adolescence. I love long hair on men. I was in high school when guys started to grow their hair long. One of my friends refused to cut his and the court gave him the option of expulsion or shaving his head. He was so incensed about having to shave his head, he not only became a lawyer, he's now the D.A. in my home county. Kristal, you should find a site that has a lot of new mesh hairstyles. Email them. I've discovered that many of the meshers are looking for new ideas. I'm looking for the right person to make that university fruit drink dispenser into a still.
I can't think of a time when I've seen a wedding arch, even when I was living in North Carolina (Greensboro. But NC was a long time ago [more than 20 years] so things may have changed a bit there.) But at least in the Pacific NW, I've never seen one used at all in the past or more recently. I'm one of those Scots who enjoyed her heritage. (I'm 3/4 Scottish and 1/4 Swedish.) Papa used to take me to the Highland "Tattoo" (which are now called "Highland Games") every year. And I have the kilt in my family tartan even still. (Never mind that it's about 10" too small now. But it was from when I was a teen.) I never saw mullets except on TV, by the way. They weren't all that popular around here, even amongst the "rednecks".
They were big in Minnesota (sigh). We called it "hockey hair." My husband's cousin had one until about five years ago. Every time we went to a family gathering I had to resist the urge to bring a pair of scissors.
