Funny you should say that, because the ones I've met with that hairdo have pretty much all bin Mancs.

I'd never thought abut it until you mentioned it, Hairy.

We do get a slight regional variation down here; it's basically the same, but with peroxide blond bits. Looks crap imo.

RE the OP images, at what point does dereliction of interest in one's personal appearance become a "haircut"?

I don't know anyone who looks like those in TSY's pic.

And if I did, they'd get a proper kicking and rightly so.

Why?

Because that's where I assumed all Oxbridge graduates end up.

I din't go to Oxbridge. That's Stoner's department.

I went to Tower Hamlets Community College. 😀 Was much betterer.

The Hoxton Fin

Ah yeah forgot about those!

Croydon Facelift

Lo, and behold! 😆

Stamford Hill is another part of London with a distinct 'do that resists the vagaries of fashion, that you don't see much of elsewhere in the UK:

Cant help but think their haircut would be pretty disadvantageous in a street rumble....

Surely the op's pics are anti haircuts? Saying that I'm from near Manchester and my hair goes like that if I don't get it cut.

You're right, I've dismissed a whole swathe of London with that. Never been to any of those places.

By way of apology, have one for High Barnet:

Wow, spent most of my life near Wigan, never saw that hairdo, that's a shocker.

There's a distinct "almost but not quite" mohawk hairdo around the rougher of these parts.

Is the oasis one even classed as a cut... It's just an out of control mop, just like mine.

It's not seen a pair of clippers for 6 months.

I went to Stoke, once. It was only September but it was bloody [i]freezing[/i].

In spite of the bitter cold, there were young ladies out dressed only in boob-tubes and wide belts. 😐

I don't think some of them had any pants on, either. 😥

wide belts.

I believe the local colloquialism for that is mingewinker

I understood them to also be called 'greyhounds', but being an innocent young lad, I have no idea what this means. 😐

No pants though; they'll catch their death. 🙁

You get an explosion of that old-enough-to-know-better Manc 'do in the OP's pictures on the Isle of Wight on the bank holiday weekend of a scooter rally.
