Ok, I understand that this is a kind of curly haircut or something.
But what exactly and where the word comes from? Is it a sort of acronym?
DANKE in advance!

Translation for Neva: "definitely curls - but not natural ones - artificial - created by the minipli"

: "Bundesliga-Frisur" in Slovene; C/E. Europe is a linguistically diverse region, but perhaps our Asker understands this term, i.e. mullet ;-) / I think I already got that "subtle" difference, I think Asker got the point; I'll spare myself that link, ta 8-(

;-) but as I understand it, the mullet and the minipli are two separate animals, often (and unfortunately) occurring in combination. See www.mulletsgalore.com for the best of the best examples ;-)

Minipli
Minipli ist oder war (ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob es die eigentlich noch gibt - vor 20 Jahren allerdings sehr en vogue) eine sehr schwache Dauerwelle, die das Haar ein wenig voluminöser und lockiger, aber, nicht - wie es bei stärkeren Dauerwellen der Fall sein kann - kraus macht. Ich denke, es ist ein Markenname, bin mir da aber nicht sicher.

It´s a brandname for a special perm - very popular in the 1980s - which is not as strong as a normal perm so that you get curls, but you hair does not get frizzy.
