Florence Henderson” who was a famous soap star.
During the 19th century, the mullet went under various modifications such as perming the hair at the back and getting a crew cut in the front. Many people also tried getting spikes and highlights on a mullet to add to the craziness. After a few years the mullet lost its significance and was forgotten but it was brought back in the fashion circuit by the
famous celebrity soccer player,
David Beckham.
