Different hairstyles have been around since the beginning of time. In the past four decades hairstyles have changed dramatically. Hair has gone from classy to simple to wild and now to chic.

They did not want to bleach or try to straightening their hair anymore. They came out with their own style. The style was called the afro. The afro was started by young African American teenagers. In the 1960s and the early 70s the afro symbolized the end of the conservative civil rights era and the dawn of the more militant Black Power Movement (Madden SL4).

In the early 70s the afro soon became just another fashion.
With an afro wig anyone could wear the style. Today the afro is more likely to be remembered as an icon of seventies funk rather than the uniform of a guerrilla () Fashion basically determined the hair in the 1970s.

They thought that she wasnt a strong woman. The style was long hair. Blonde was very big. Hair was worn long and wavy. Woman were going for soft waves. Everything was a little more natural. Farrah Faucet was the icon of this decade. She had the long, blonde hair with off the face flips.
Many woman wanted the style. Another icon was The Partridge Familys, Susan Dey. She had the long straight hair. In this time era everything was calm and pretty. I think that everything in this time was very beautiful. Everything looked feminine. The 80s was a crazy time. The styles were outrageous and out of control. Every style was meant to be loud in its display.
The styles in this decade went out and may never return except for maybe appearances at 80s dances. Asymmetrical haircuts were big.
