What’s Australia got to do with it?

That’s the traddie look you saw in Australia first that’s since become a thing in the states. Half the guys on Love Island Australia have a mustache/mullett/fauxhawk. Dislikes

I simply cannot with that love Island, Australia, mustache, and hairdo. 

He had shaved the mustache when I met with him this weekend. Without it he’s very striking and handsome but I didn’t mind the pictures with the mustache either just saying.

Dom is in his name, but is it also part of his service style?  His description doesn't include much reference to that.

Yes if that’s what you’re looking for. He was very amiable with what I wanted, just let him know beforehand what type of service you’re after

I think goosh means "tradie" (one 'd')......I did have to look this up and, yeah, it's a thing!

What’s weird in Australia is how many younger investment bankers or lawyers or whatever adopt the Tradie look. In the states you saw guys like Benson Boone a year or two later than Australia  with that look, and now some of the younger guys in my office, (both NYC and LA)  and even some of the older guys in my office are starting to do the mullet and the porn stash, etc. hate.

'Tradie' is more than a look, and often here it doesn't always even include 'that' look. People here are more likely to use 'bogan' for the look (in my part of the country at least), which is a borderline derogatory term for poorer and 'unrefined' people. Tradie is essentially a term that refers to people in the building trades (hence the typical Australian abbreviation/diminutive—shorten the word and ie or o at the end), and extends to tradesmen you'd employ to do minor home repairs, or who work in licensed trades like plumbing and electrical work, and also carpenters and the like. It also refers, more obliquely, to the proportion of them who have become increasingly prosperous as their small businesses do well with that kind of work and don't take on any of the pretensions that wealth can generate (some making a virtue of not doing so, a sort of reverse snobbery). To me at least, the word 'tradie' sits in a neutral to positive register, not a negative one.

But back to the gentleman in question.
