: Local History: 70s long hair for men was 'in' style

No idea where Vineland might be, but plenty of us old farts were there, at least time-wise.
'Long hair' of the period was only shoulder length, but more common than shorter styles.
Where I lived, the ladies hairdressers mostly renamed themselves unisex, so there was never any real issue of having to use a ladies salon. That said, being the only man in there was not unusual.
I did get haircuts at traditional barbers as well, but it was obvious that they saw us as killing their business, and not always an advisable thing.
