Co-hosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos brought up the “broccoli perm,” a trending haircut among men which they say their son Joaquin was lucky enough to be “born with.”
“We are constantly, whenever we see him, trying to figure out a way to tame the hair,” Ripa shared. “He’s definitely got a wild, wild head of hair.”
Ripa pulled out a picture of the broccoli perm, which she described as a “zoomer hairstyle” that men are purposefully perming their hair to achieve.
“Oh yeah, that’s him,” Consuelos said once he caught a glimpse of the picture. “That’s our son.”
Ripa responded, “This is not our son. This could be our son. He did not perm his hair to make it look this way.”
Suddenly, the cameras shifted to an individual in the audience sporting a blonde broccoli perm, who bashfully attempted to stop the woman next to him from pointing at him.
“Oh, there’s one,” Consuelos quipped with laughter. “Too late!”
The young man, who introduced himself as Cooper, received some praise for his ‘do from Consuelos, who told him “it looks great.” Ripa asked whether his broccoli perm is natural or if he did it himself.
“Well I did it, because my hair used to be, like, really straight,” Cooper replied.
After the audience laughed, Consuelos continued, “No, seriously. Jeff Spicoli, played by the great Sean Penn .”
Consuelos joked that Cooper should “watch it with [his] parents,” which Ripa firmly disagreed with.
“Don’t watch that movie, and especially don’t watch it with your parents,” she said. “You watch it how we used to watch it: behind our parents’ backs.”
