Hairstyles 60 years ago

The 1960s were a revolutionary decade in fashion, music, and culture—and hairstyles were no exception. This era broke away from the conservative looks of the 1950s and embraced bold experimentation, individuality, and self-expression. From perfectly polished styles to wild and carefree looks, the decade offered something for everyone.

Towering high and teased to perfection, the beehive became a glamorous staple of the early 1960s. It symbolized sophistication and was famously worn by icons like Audrey Hepburn. With lots of volume and soft waves, the bouffant gave women a feminine, elegant look. Often set with rollers and sprayed to hold, it was popular for formal occasions.
