When it comes to mullets

Agreed. It's a great dirtbag hesher look, but I don't think it's a mullet.

+1. It’s just short bangs to keep the hair out of his eyes. Compare it with the real Hetfield mullet pictures and it’s obviously not a real mullet. But it does need brushing.

Hetfield mostly didn’t do long hair well. He was right to cut it short.

he definitely does look much better with that modern short on sides hairdo
 
Could be a local thing, but it always struck me that mullets were for blokes who didn't have the courage to grow proper long hair like hippies and headbangers, perhaps out of fear of being mistaken for women.

It's like the '80s overcompensating wannabe alpha male was scared shit of gender bender aesthetics, and yet idolized hairmetallers dressed like movie cliché Sunset Boulevard prostitutes, but hated Annie Lennox and David Bowie.
