Well 8 years later hodads were wanna be surfers. Like the Beach Boys lolol. Mainly jocks (or Catholic school boys) kept short hair. So it couldn't be pulled. Collar length, non tapered, was average. The Beatles were already history. The Beach boys Could never top Good Vibration and got stuck in time. The Eagles and southern rock were coming on strong and resisted heavy metal, disco and rap. But times change. Ha! My daughter caught me listening to the Grateful Dead and thought it was country music
