For Duncan, the mullet’s reputation is irrelevant. It’s brought him too much luck to be concerned about what other people think. If anything, he plays it up. For example, he carries around a hairbrush and Moroccan oil with him to zhuzh up his mane after it’s been clamped under his hard hat all day. “I gotta keep the hair at championship level,” he says. “The guys at work give me a hard time about the Moroccan oil and the brush, but they know what’s up.”
Naturally, Duncan plans to defend his crown. But he also tells me he wouldn’t be upset if he lost next year’s competition either. “Because there’s a lot of really, really nice mullets out there that are deserving of a trophy,” he explains. “And there are other guys out there with really great mullets who I would love to be able to feel the way I did when I won.”
