I begged & asked my mom for a whole year to let me grow out a mullet, until she finally gave in. I started growing it out 5 years ago in 2019, & haven’t cut it since. My mom used to have to braid it & pin it up every day for school because I wasn’t allowed to have long hair until this year. The first day I came to school with my hair down, everyone was like “WHOA!”. They had never seen me with my hair down, & didn’t know how long it was. Every now & then some kids at school try to tease me about my hair. They’ll tell me “Why don’t you cut your hair? I don’t like it.” I always just tell them “That’s ok cause I like it how it is, & I’m not going to change it.”
