Immortalised – in our household at least – by seminal 1991 Only Fools And Horses episode ‘Three Men, A Woman And A Baby’ in which Cassandra mistakes Rodney’s clip-on ponytail for a rodent, the ‘rattail’ became briefly popular in the 80s before slithering back into the sewer from whence it came. It’s been around since the 1920s at least and, to the best of our knowledge, has never looked good once on anyone in all that time. Seeing a pattern here? The bowl cut – thus called because it can be achieved by plonking a bowl on your hair and simply ‘cutting around’ – is possibly the geekiest haircut of all time (though admittedly one that saves you a tidy profit in barbers bills). Which is important, because the only thing that can make a scruffy bulb of hair bouncing around on the back of your head look good is being an international sex symbol, or E. ![]() You’re not even the least good looking one – Neil, or whatever his name is. We know what you're thinking: yeah Esquire? Says who? YOU? Well yes, but for good measure we also asked our friends at award-winning barbers Ruffians to weigh in on the matter too, meaning this list is officially endorsed by the professionals. A braid - that's three of more strands of material woven together - made out of the hair of a grown man, then photographed and put on Instagram.Ĭall it cultural appropriation (cornrows have been a traditional African style of hair for centuries), call it gender fluidity (your little sister was doing it to her dolls when she was eight), call it the Game Of Thrones affect ( Daenarys has rocked one since season one): whatever it is, we're consigning the man braid to the long list of history's most heinous haircuts. If the top knot ruled the scalps of misguided hipsters in 2015, then 2016 looks set to belong to the ' man braid'. ![]()
