Frosted tips refer to a men's hairstyle in which the hair is formed into short spikes and then bleached such that the tips of each spike will be pale blond. Frosted tips were popular in mainstream culture from 1994 until 1997. Christian culture, gay men in rural communities, and NASCAR fans are the only demographics that continue to endorse this look. The only other event in which frosted tips are seen is on the show "Lockup Raw" on MSNBC. Occasionally on this show you will see inmates with frosted tips. (How they get bleach into prison is a mystery.)
In Christian culture frosted tips are most commonly seen on males under 35 and on pastors of any age who want to be relevant. Youth pastors, worship pastors, singles pastors, creative pastors and their cousin the creative director most commonly have frosted tips. You will also see frosted tips on lead or senior pastors of large warehouse churches who wish to appeal to young people.
Sometimes you will see the frosted tips and a goatee worn in tandem. You can be sure that this individual owns a guitar and at least one vintage bowling shirt.

another genius post that i'm sure is secretly about me. i've never managed to keep up with any acceptable fashion time frame: i frosted my tips in 98, carried a mullet in the early 90's, and tight-rolled my jeans waaaay too late in the game. how is it possible to stay curren--i mean relev--i mean cool?
My acting teacher is 47 and still does this. He's not gay, but very effeminate, so it might fit into that catergory of acceptability. He has no sense of "cool", but really thinks he does, hence all the effort in vain. I'm always fascinated by frosted tips and mullets and wonder who are the stylists that don't advise against this.
There's a Nashville component to this I think? Nashville and Christian culture intersect in some ways. There's "Nashville hair" which is the longer version in your photo montage - almost always flat ironed and involving highlights and or tips. I think.
Steph,
Wow! You certainly do catch EVERYTHING that's so odd in "Christian Culture." Man, you're good.
You are so right...now that you pointed this out. I'm looking at some pictures of many Pop-Christian musicians and 99% of them have frosted tips. Ha!
Blessings,

Yeah, isn't Nashville hair like Keith Urban's or Billy Ray Cyrus's hair (present day Billy Ray, not his '90s uber-long mullet).
Conrad, I don't mean to secretly be writing about you. :) I tightrolled for too long too and I had a big sprayed wall o' bangs for way too long.
I think that Goo Goo Dolls lead singer always epitomized Nashville hair. Highlighted and ironed into swoopy submission.
So I spent the weekend in the Northwest and found frequent frosted tips among men, but also a seemingly high amount of blonde streaks among women as well. At one point, I glanced around a coffee shop and each and every female in the place had at least one, if not several streaks of blonde. Is this a secret code?
Holy Crap, you really have it out for Steven Furtick. Anything to do with appearance, he seems to be your poster pastor. Really, why is that? As soon as I read the title I thought "she's going to have a picture of my pastor in there." Sure enough. I believe you are getting predictable.
as you can tell I'm reading all your blogs from first to last.
HAHAHAHA
EW........ frosted tips. i didn't know there is a name for that hideous hair style.
Huh. I've been wondering why my friend had frosted tip. He drives a stock car. Thanks!
Sorry but gay men dumped this look years ago.

- Ta đối phó Hắc Ám Thần điện, ngươi ngăn lại viễn cổ Hổ tộc.
Nhạc Thành nhìn Đông Phương Lạc Nhan hỏi.
- Không có vấn đề, chỉ là viễn cổ Minh Xà tộc...
Đông Phương Lạc Nhan nhìn Minh Yêu, sau đó nhìn Nhạc Thành nói.
- Không cần phải xem, nàng ta sẽ không xuất thủ.
Nhạc Thành nhìn Minh Yêu nói, nếu Minh Yêu muốn cùng viễn cổ Hổ tộc hoà hợp làm một, vừa rồi đã không ra tay với Toan Nghê tộc Thanh niên kia.dongtam

- Minh Yêu, chúng ta trước liên thủ đối phó với Thần hoàng tộc cùng Nhạc gia, bằng không bọn họ cũng không bỏ qua cho ngươi.
Viễn cổ Hổ tộc Thanh niên sắc mặt biến đổi nhìn Minh Yêu nói.
Toan Nghê tộc Long Thiên Nhai lúc này không có năng lực đối chiến nữa, người của Hắc Ám Thần điện bị Nhạc Thành ngăn lại, viễn cổ Hổ tộc biết rõ thực lực của hai người bọn họ, tựa hồ còn kém Đông Phương Lạc Nhan.
