What inspired Manis to grow the long mullet?

Tami Manis expressed that she was inspired to grow a long mullet after watching "Voices Carry", a music video by Til Tuesday. She expressed that the girl had a long rat tail, and it was then that she wanted one too.

The lady cut her mullet in November 1989. However, she immediately regretted it. She then took the decision to grow it out again in the following year. It was after this decision that the Tennessee resident never looked back, and finally created a record.

It is definitely not easy to manage such a long mullet. Tami Manis expresses that she usually keeps her long mullet braided. When she rides her motorbike, she tucks the tail in her pocket for ease.

Once a week, a friend of Manis braids her hair. The mullet tied in a braid remains like that until the Manis washes it again. She stated that she dries the mullet with paper towels because if she does not do that, it would remain wet almost all the time.
