Surfer Hair
Surfer hair is a tousled type of hairstyle, popularized by surfers from the 1950s onwards, traditionally long, thick and naturally bleached from high exposure to the sun and salt water of the sea. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the long hair and general lack of personal grooming was closely associated with hippie culture. Today, hairstyling companies brand their own hair gels, shampoos and hair wax to achieve the "surfer look" with hairstyles that are often shorter than traditionally, which often require more grooming to achieve the permanent hair lift or intentional windswept look. Amongst women, fashion magazines have referred to "sun streaked surfer hair" as a desirable look for women, although genuine surfer hair is often heavily damaged by the elements. Background As early as 1950, '' Life'' magazine referred to the "beach bum" surfers of southern California. In 1963, ''Billboard'' described the emerging cultural "uniform" of the surfer with bleached blond hair and white Lev ...

Curtains (hairstyle)
Curtained hair or curtains is a hairstyle featuring a long fringe divided in either a middle parting or a side parting, with short (or shaved) sides and back. Curtained hair generally applies to males, although an alternative name, the undercut, is used for both male and female haircuts following this style. Variations on this haircut have been popular in Europe, North America, and Japan throughout the 20th century and in the 21st century, peaking between 1986 and 2001. Origins A shorter version of the haircut parted in the middle and kept in place with pomade became popular during the Edwardian era as a more practical alternative to the longer hair and sideburns fashionable from the 1840s to 1890s. This was due in part to the popularity of sporting activities like rugby football among younger men. From the turn of the century until the 1920s, a longer variant of the undercut was popular among young working-class men, especially members of street gangs. In interwar Glasgow, Ne ...

Quiff
The quiff is a hairstyle that combines the 1950s pompadour hairstyle, the 1950s flattop, and sometimes a mohawk. It was born as a post-war reaction to the short and strict haircuts for men. The hairstyle was a staple in the British 'Teddy Boy' movement, but became popular again in Europe in the early 1980s and experienced a resurgence in popularity during the 1990s. Origin The etymology of the word "quiff" is uncertain, several proposals have been suggested for its origin. It may owe its origin to the French word ''coiffe'', which can mean either a hairstyle or, going further back, the mail that knights wore over their heads and under their helmets. Another possible candidate for its origin is the Dutch word ''kuif'', meaning "crest". The Dutch name for Tintin, who sports a quiff, is ''Kuifje'', which is the diminutive of the same word. Styles The modern-day quiff includes plenty of hair at the front of the top of the head, receding into shorter hair at the back with a trimmed ...

Bouffant
A bouffant () is a type of puffy, rounded hairstyle characterized by hair raised high on the head and usually covering the ears or hanging down on the sides. Etymology The English word ''bouffant'' comes from the French ''bouffante'', from the present participle of ''bouffer'': "to puff, puff out". History The modern bouffant, considered by one source to have been invented by British celebrity hairdresser Raymond Bessone was noted by ''Life'' in the summer of 1956 as being "already a common sight in fashion magazines." The style became popular at the beginning of the 1960s when First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy was often photographed with her hair in a bouffant, and her style was widely imitated. Generally speaking, by the mid-1960s, many well-dressed women and girls were wearing some form of bouffant hairdo, which in one variation or another remained the fashionable norm until supplanted by the geometric bob cut at the end of the decade and the looser shag or feathered s ...
