Hats are a fun accessory that can add an element of whimsy to an outfit. Trendy this season is a cap that is a cross between a tam and a baseball hat like what the girl in this picture is wearing. This one is a pretty pink color that is complementary to her brown sweater. It is made of a corduroy material which gives it some texture. She is wearing her hair in an updo here as it is all tucked up to show off this great addition. This style of cap comes in all sorts of colors and materials and seems to be very popular right now.

Now, here's a stylish new wave hairstyle for men. Long bangs brushed forward and to one side is a retro look that gets its roots from the 60s. The sides are cut short above the ears with some longer strands near the face and then the back comes down to the bottom of the neck. This bi-level style is and 80s look big time.

The punk rocker look was wildly popular in the 1980s and is still around today. This woman is wearing a Rod-Stewart-like hairdo with tall and stiff spikes that adorn the top of the head while some strands hang straight down. Her long pieces are braided. The black hair matches her black and red bold get up. Fish net stockings cover her legs and crazy patterns are seen everywhere. There are stripes and checks and lace. This retro era was known for its random choices in design and color and bold was big.

This picture was taken in 1964 and is a great example of what types of hairstyles you might have seen on women and girls. The woman standing in the background is in her early 20's and is sporting a bouffant without bangs. Her hair is pulled up into an updo with much height and fullness that was accomplished with ratting the strands and products such as Dippity Do and Aquanet. Her eye make-up is dramatic with dark liner that extends past the corners. The mom has a bleach blonde poof doo. The child has a pixie cut and back then parents usually cut their kid's hair which is obvious with the uneveness.
