Mark Zuckerberg showed up to a Senate hearing this week with a noticeably longer haircut.
From the front everything looks quite serious, but at the back of his head you can see something…
Could it be a mullet?
This is a machine translation of an article from our US colleagues at Business Insider. It was automatically translated and checked by an editor.
As the CEOs of Meta,
Mark Zuckerberg was forced to stand up and apologize to the parents of the dead children in the room. Linda Yaccarino admitted that there are hardly any young people using X anymore. Senator Tom Cotton repeatedly asked Tiktok’s CEO, who is from Singapore, if he was actually a Chinese citizen.
But the strangest sight was a fluffy blonde tuft of hair on the back of Mark Zuckerberg’s neck. It appears he has grown a mullet.
Mark Zuckerberg shows off new hairstyle
Zuckerberg has kept his hair short for the past decade. He is known for typically sporting a Caesar cut that sits tight and short above his forehead. Over the past year he has undergone a physical transformation and has really gained weight.

From another angle, it does indeed look suspiciously like a mullet:

But from behind the shape doesn’t quite fit a mullet:

And here the hair doesn’t look long at all; it barely reaches the collar:

Is it really a mullet?
It’s not lost on me that these photos are from a moment when Zuckerberg turned around and spoke to a group of parents holding up photos of their children. The children had all committed suicide after being exploited and taken advantage of on social media. This is a terrible and serious matter; this is not it.
The photos weren’t clear: I wasn’t sure if it was a bad day, a mullet, a shadow, or whatever.
So I turned to the experts at USA Mullet Champ, an organization that hosts mullet competitions both at trade shows and online. After reviewing the photographic evidence, spokesperson Brittany Stevens said: “A real mullet should be longer in the back and shorter in the front and sides. This isn’t quite a mullet yet, but it’s well on the way there!”
