Young men's hair was worn long until well past the mid-1970s. Unlike the unkempt 1960s, it was often worn styled in soft layers. In California, the tousled blond, surfer hair was fashionable for teenage boys and young men. In the early part of the decade, sideburns were popular.
Some of the most popular hairstyles for men include "Long and Luscious" hairstyle, mod haircut, and the "buzzcut" hairstyle popularised by action heroes like Steve McQueen
Continuing on from the 1960s, the ducktail and Pompadour hairstyle (then known as the "Elvis Presley hairstyle") were popular among young Italian-American and Mexican-American men in big cities like New York. Large quantities of grease or brylcreem was normally used to keep the hair in place.
At the end, I can say that the men in the 1970s had the total freedom to wear what they liked without any perspectives and also to make any hairstyle they wanted. Whether the hairstyle was Afro, shaggy, straight, curly or even side-combed hairstyles, men didn’t feel odd because all the men were affected by the hippie style and they mostly wore the same.. With such kind of hairstyles, men looked in a very modern, stylish and hippie-lovely way. Those 1970s hairstyles never got out of the trends, they are always in but with some modifications and changes just to add the spirit of the new year’s hairstyles collection. So, you can easily wear any 1970s hairstyles and still fit the theme of the current year.
