Bob/Finger Wave 1920s

A look very popular with the ladies during the Roaring 20s. It was part of an overall look known as “The Flapper”, where the girl would crop their hair between their chin to their ear level and work in uniform waves. This became immensely popular due to celebrity such as Zelda Fitzgerald and Colleen Moore.

Ducktail 1950s

Take one “wrong side of the tracks” gentleman. Leave some hair long around the neck and apply generous helpings of hair grease. Give the gentleman a comb and watch as he obsessively combs the sides flat and back and leaves the top piled high. The top was either left in disarray, symbolizing the “greasers” role in society, or combed into a tube that was called “the elephant’s nose”. Why settle for looking like one ridiculous animal when you can have two!

Afro 1960s / 1970s

A hairstyle sported largely by African-Americans, but also by other ethnic groups and people with very curly hair. The style maintains that curly hair is grown and brushed out to create a perfect halo of hair surrounding the head. It was popularized by the “Black is Beautiful” movement and by icons such as Jimi Hendrix. The Isro is the Jewish-American version of this hairstyle.

Dreadlocks 1970s

Associated with the Rastafarian movement, the dreadlock hairstyle involves sectioning the hair into locks and growing it as long as it can go. It began in the 1950s in Jamaica and reached America around the time reggae music became popular. This style was sported by celebrities like Bob Marley.

Rat-tail 1980s

A hairstyle involving a long lock of hair on the nape of the neck. The hair could be left alone, braided, permed, or dreadlocked. This is another hairstyle associated with the lower-class, redneck culture.

Bowlcut 1980s / 1990s

If you couldn’t afford to go to the barber, you could ask your mother to place a bowl on your head and shave everything else off. That is exactly what many boys did, or at least looked like they did.

The Rachel 1990s

A popular haircut with women, it was named after the character Rachel Green from Friends, who sported this haircut in the first few seasons. It is a layered, bouncy ‘do with highlights and lowlights.
