The tellum or reverse mullet is a hairstyle similar to the mohawk. Tellum is mullet spelled backwards. In a tellum the hair is grown long and the sides are shaven. Then the hair is pulled into a pony-tail.This style of hair was very popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s with skateboarders and punk rockers.[citation needed]The hair is longer in the front (usually straight cheek-chin length hair) and is very short/buzzed in the back. The back is often spiky as well.
