Back in the day, boys wore their hair much longer than their fathers would have liked. This picture is from the 70s, probably about 1976 and shows a man standing next to his two sons who are sporting long locks down past their ears and bangs. One guy has an embroidered jean shirt and since styles seem to keep rolling back around, I wonder if we will start seeing these again; and it is tucked in. We already see the younger generations copying the hairstyle on the left.

If you are looking for what's new in short bob hairstyles, then you must check out Jaime Pressly with a modern and up to date version complete with fringy bangs. This is a wonderful style for a woman with straight fine hair. This would be great for a narrow oval face as well because of the horizontal lines created by the cut lines that are softened with a little texturizing of the ends. This will draw the eye out and create width when looking at her.

Her light brown color is jazzed up with some honey blonde highlights that add depth and dimension. Nicky shows us that sometimes less is more as her no frills hairdo that allows her features to shine.

This picture is from about 1973 and shows a pre-teen 12 year old girl in her 6th grade school photo. During this time period, which was early 70s, the hairstyle trend was that of no style basically. This look would work much better on someone with thicker hair rather than one with thin fine hair as above. A middle part with no bangs was very popular and taking a section on each side and tucking that behind the ears to allow the rest to fall right along side the face was right in style. We had no flat irons back then so the strands were just left to be a bit messy. Teenage girls did not wear much make up back then especially those in grade school or junior high (middle school). Right around the mid to late 70s, feathered hair became popular and this trend was popularized by Farrah Fawcett of Charlies Angels.

She has got some real retro sparkle here with her bouffant on top and long spiral curls below. This hairstyle has the appearance of a partial updo with the back combing on the crown. The hair is pulled straight back and smoothed over the top of the ratted underneath layers and secured high on the back of the head with a clip. This would help to get the height that we see here.
