I was fighting with my parents in 2010s because I never wanted to go to hairdresser so I had an abhorrent mullet for 3 years haha

I bet kids today also fight with their parents because of their hair

They absolutely do!  And sometimes they are still fighting with their parents tell them to get into my barber chair1

These days the late middle schoolers that early highschoolers like to let the whole forelock long and curly and falling down in front of the rise and some of them their hair is so long that they have to wear a baseball cap or false in front of their faceS!

On the flipside ——-  About 10 years ago or more my nephew kept wanting to shave his head and his mother refused to let him do it.  She finally Allowed him to try it when he was 14.  After that she fought with him about it until he was 16 and she just gave up fighting and he’s kept that shaved clean ever since he was 16 years old right through high school college and everything and still to this day in his 20’S!

Yeah there was definitely a generation that was the opposite. They didn’t want any of their hair! I worked with a guy who clipper shaved his head since high school. So he’s going on 25 yrs.

In the early 2000s a lot of kids were asking their parents to let them have their heads shaved, but it was just a passing fad.

In the early 70’s I was in the Texas Boys’ Choir which required us to keep our hair cut in the extremely unfashionably short style of the early 60’s. As soon as my voice cracked, and I was “retired”, I grew it as long as I could to make up for lost time. My dad only stopped me when it got to my jaw line.
Then the Saturday Night Fever disco feathering thing came around. I am so glad I got over that one quickly and very few pics exist to remind me of that period.
