The top and sides are cut super short and because of a cowlick right near the front, there are some unruly tufts that want to do their own thing. In today's world, those random strands make this style practically up to date.

Everybody here has short hair. Mom has a typical curled style that was most likely set on rollers the night before. The bangs are brushed straight up and back for height and she sides are curled under right at the ear. The little girl has a pixie cut and a most hysterical expression showing missing teeth, the older sister has a bob with a touch of curl at the ends, and the young boy has a short crew cut. Button up shirts from plain white, to checks, to patterns were popular along with rolled up jeans. And we must not forget those unforgettable cat eye glasses. The year was about 1966.
