: The 50th anniversary of the Beatles appearance on the Ed Sullivan show is fast approaching. It will be celebrated on that exact date, Feb. 9th, with a 2 hour exposition, aired on CBS. Iam one of the many young men who started combing their hair differently at that exact moment in time. My hair has consistantly been longer than "The Norm" since and has gone through m,any permutations. ending today with what i had inthe late 60s and through the 70s, My longer than mid-back length. It is a part of my basic self. So was it an outside influence, or just an intrinsic feeling you know had to be done?
Hi Jason,
I actually decided I wanted long hair when I was around 10 years old. However, my parents didn't see it and we always had short "normal" hair. When I became 12 years old, my Dad gave in and said go for it. Then I had varying stages of longer hair until I joined the Air Force. It was flattops for 4 years. After I got out, I maintained short styles for many years.
Now, here I am fulfilling a lifelong dream of mine. I will have waist length hair before the day I die. Not sure what my ultimate goal is yet. It would be neat to see what the hair Gods have in store for me! Onward and downward!
