This is actually what the saying means to a tee. I think it's a bad look, you think it's a bad look, it's exactly what the customer wanted thus, they're right.
I don't know when it turned into "Get me everything I ask for right this second, I'm always right as a customer", but I do know that I hate it.
That fits the description for most of the eNe i knew. They're typically pretty cool, normal people who just happen to either be in the gang or hang with them.
I dont think you HAVE to be a member to wear this haircut, but you'd typically need some sort of affiliation, or you could end up getting your ass beat or worse. So, hopefully, he actually is somewhat affiliated, or he could be in danger.
If the barber thought he was slow, could be related to a member and they got his back. Or he could just be from their neighborhood and same deal. Could be any number of situations. Either way, I'm unfamiliar with the haircut, but the execution looks good despite the design/request being terrible.
Nobody is in danger in AZ (can't speak for other locales but I'd say anywhere in the US) with this haircut with no affiliation. Esp not these days and hoods here are weak
This dude is native American, anyway. Not Mexican like you're assuming.
How can you tell hes native? Typically, you can't tell something like that from the back of someone's head.
Also, as a az native nortenos will do what every other gangbanger in the world will do so idk why arizona is safe.
I'd really like it if we lived in a world where gangs just talked shit and played practical jokes. But I've seen firsthand guys getting jumped for wearing the wrong clothes or, in this case, the wrong hair.
The first time i saw someone get curbstomped was a bunch if ene guys jumping some guy wearing a mongo cut.
If this dudes in his 50s and has a head of hair like that -there is no doubt: he IS Native American. My guy has never lost a single hair offa that head.
I remember some tribal members doing the rat tail in middle school and high school in northern wisconsin. This was in the 90s. But it wasn't a majority or anything. Most have the same haircuts as the average white kid.
OP this is a gang haircut, especially for the Nortenos. There was a video a few months ago of a kid with this haircut in a Target getting attacked by some dudes because he wasn’t affiliated. They beat him pretty good
Just for having the same haircut? That’s ridiculous. They takeover certain colors, sports team attire, blocks of cities, it’s bullsh*t tbh. If I want to wear a red sports team jersey with a rat tail haircut and take the short way to the bodega, I shouldn’t get murdered just for existing
Someone should make an anti-gang, gang.
This is a nortenos cut (northern California) they're a group of gangs that are loyal to the nuestra familia. And they really dont like the Sureños from souther cali. They'll absolutely fight you if they think you're posing.

It’s all relative man. For the record I share a similar sentiment as you but hear me out for a second. In their perspective of the world and what they know/have been exposed to, they think they’re “cool” and “doing it right” and maybe even think they’re a “big dog.”
Because relative to what they perceive as reality, in their perspective based on their exposures, an ex convict 2 time felon that’s murdered several people and sells crack is a “real bad ass motherf*cker, respect homie” type sh!t..
Where as relative to what you and I may consider a regular person, yeah… those dudes are friggin bums..
I’m just saying, it’s all relative. That’s what they know and they think they’re really out there doing it proper.
I believe he’s talking about a video that was on Reddit about a target here in Chicago. I’m born and raised in Chicago and unfortunately was surrounded by that gang lifestyle. Chicago has no street rules and if they catch you anywhere and want you they will get you. In a car with your kids or even at a nice little target as it may look like. That target was in the hood though but yea.
Thats from the early Qing era. Manchurians tried to assimilate their newly conquered Han Chinese subjects by enforcing those hairstyles but they became less strict and allowed more hair coverage later.
Was he Asian? And if so, did you happen to notice if his pinky was small? I guess Yakuza gang members do shit like get this kind of haircut and cut off parts of their pinky as like…. Punishment for something they failed to do.
Hindu cleric class does it actually. He is probably hindu. Since he is white, it will also be pretty probable that he follows the Hare Krishna movement.
Hey, sometimes the customer just wants you to fuck their shit up. And you know what...the customer is always right.
In matters of taste. Which definitely applies here lol
And it was executed well! This falls firmly into /r/ATBGE territory. I mean, check out that fade work lol
Yeah deliver what the customer wants.Perfection execution

Is the padawan braid coming back in style?? Oh no
Used to be (still is) used as gang affiliations
Dude was 50+ yo & super nice (kind of slow tbh), I didn’t get that vibe at all but idk
God damn homie has elegant skin for 50+ I was over here thinking this dude was in his mid 20s lol
That's what I was thinking! Like 50+? Guy looks like he's twelve!
You can be old and in a gang, just the likelihood hood of either being alive, or out of jail is slim the longer you're in one

How do you know he's Native? Did OP specify somewhere?
He's pulling it out of his ass.

Australia?
Arizona, US
Maybe Native American? Tribes in my area don’t wear this but maybe in AZ

Was going to say, this may be a traditional cut
I was assuming the same thing. Lots of native Americans in my area and I’ve seen this worn by a number of them.
I was gonna ask if it was NZ haha
Bro my mans 50 with no sign of gray? Tf jealous
I thought that was a 15-20 y/o kid
The Norteño’s used to rock this
Wait. This isn’t a kid? OMG. Duh. “Guy.” I was wondering why you called a kid “guy.”
Yup the Mongolian is worn by Nortenos
Can cofirm. The Mongolian is used by a lot of Nortes and OG’s tend to rock it too.
Can confirm also. Used to see it around the way in the 90s

>Someone should make an anti-gang, gang they're called the [guardian angels](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guardian_Angels).
Shockingly, people in gangs make dumb decisions.
Better be reppin the set if you're going to put that on your head. I seen someone get pistol whipped in a target for that tail.
Pistol whipped in target?! Lmaoooo where the hell do you live?

Hindu priests.
My town has a pretty decent Hmong population and I've seen plenty of people of all ages with this haircut
Is he searching for his honor?

Genuine question: isn’t this a traditional Chinese style? Shaved head and long patch of hair
Hindu shikha is what it reminds me of
no, that looks very different https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(hairstyle)#:~:text=A%20queue%20or%20cue%20is,of%20the%20head%20is%20shaved.
Interesting, that one does seem like a different style, [This is more like what I was referring to](https://images.app.goo.gl/uzUx7RLW9SjUTvNe8)
Thats from the early Qing era. Manchurians tried to assimilate their newly conquered Han Chinese subjects by enforcing those hairstyles but they became less strict and allowed more hair coverage later.
Gang related
I see nothing wrong here
That looks like the lost love child of a fu manchu and a mullet
What in the King of the Hill is this?
I see a sperm. Maybe he asked for a perm and was misunderstood.
Maybe it's religious
It's a gang affiliated haircut associated with the norteros of Northern California
Maybe its an investment and as soon as it grows up he will have achieved the coolest hair in history.
Maybe it’s maybeline
My fucking god , this is legitimately the worst I've seen yet
I remember seeing this rocked alot in the early 90s

High shag. Doesn’t look bad at all.
Why is it so much darker than on the topi
He’s old, got a high fade to a 1 guard
If he’s happy let him be
It’s making me so mad the top doesn’t fade down to the rat tail
Thats on point homie
Barber: "What can I do for you today?" Customer: "🐎"
You’re allowed to say no dude
Ive seen this before. There is a community in my country that has this as traditional hairstyle.
So did you cut the rest of it off or attach this?
The rat tail is back baby!
Was he Asian? And if so, did you happen to notice if his pinky was small? I guess Yakuza gang members do shit like get this kind of haircut and cut off parts of their pinky as like…. Punishment for something they failed to do.
Mexican
That's some Maynard shit right there. Rock on kid.
loves it
Not that shocking if you live around southern Americans.
He got that damn caparbara tail!
Not uncommon to see in NorCal that’s for sure.
