Rattail 鼠尾辫

Rattail is a hair style that is characterized by a long strand of hair growing downward from the back of the head while the rest of the hair is short, thus resembling a rat tail. This hair style is more commonly seen among males. In some instances, an individual might choose to grow several tails as opposed to a single very long tail.

Rattail（鼠尾辫）指大部分头发为短发，只将脑后一小撮留长成辫子的发型，因形似老鼠尾巴而得名。这种发型在男士中比较常见。有些情况下，一个人脑后不一定只留一根长辫子，而可以留好几条这样的小辫子。

The rattail saw a brief period of mainstream popularity during the 1980s and has rapidly fallen out of vogue, but can still be seen occasionally.

鼠尾辫在上世纪80年代曾经盛行一时，不过很快就淡出了时尚圈，如今偶尔还能看到有人留这样的发型。

For example:

Gerald finally acknowledged that he was no longer a teenager and realized that he needed to cut off his beloved rattail in order to display a more professional appearance.

杰拉尔德终于承认他不再是十几岁的孩子了，也意识到为了表现自己更专业的一面，他得剪去钟爱的鼠尾辫。
