One thing I've been wondering, what is up with shred guitarists and huge hair? Not that I really care about looks and style but Joe Stump and Yngwie Malmsteen have huge '80's boof'. Chris Impellitteri, Rusty Cooley and Paul Gilbert (another great shredder not mentioned on this thread) have long, typical 80's metal hair. Shawn Lane has a huge untrimmed beard, like Howard Kaylan of Flo and Eddie and Mother of Inventions. But Michael Angelo tops them with a horrible mullet and I one of the funniest pics I've seen was him and the rest of Nitro with massive boofy hair that would have to be about half a metre in diameter.
