From the article: Why is it called the ‘Meet me at McDonald’s’? In short, it is not clear why it is called this.

That's all I wanted to know and there is no answer 😭

I've always seen it referred to as the "TikTok haircut", it was all those teenage heartthrob TikTok boy bands that popularized it.

God damned broc-top! There are so many other options that are less conventional! You have total freedom to choose any flavour but pick 'fair trade vanilla.'

I'm guessing it's called that cuz kids that age will meet up at McDonald's to hang out.
