Cayden Kershaw has received the honor of being named the winner of the 2022 National Teen Division USA Mullet Championship. The teen, who lives in Wausau, Wisconsin, has been growing his hair for three years.
Cayden told local news he was pleased with the accomplishment.
He said that his hair definitely gets attention. As he explained, "There’s definitely different settings where people are more, like, more open, like a fair. People are like, ‘oh can I get a picture. Can I touch it?’ Or whatever."
He added, "It’s pretty funny. Music festivals, especially. It’s kind of funny getting all of the attention. Because when I first started growing the mullet I never, like, imagined this stuff, you know. Like I said it was just a joke at the time."
Cayden won $1,000, which he plans to donate to a local nonprofit that donates food to food pantries.
