Detroit can be a hairy place...

Hair? We got it. We fix it. We flaunt it. We film it. We report it.

We let is fly in the breeze, build a home for the bees, in my hair.

Personally, I think we should discuss the afro and the evolution of hairstyles from the 60s and 70s.

Extremely long hair pics. Fantasy hair and sculpture.

Hey, what better way to point out the absurd than to respond...absurdly.

You are right, nickyskye, I did give short shrift to white fantasy hair. Intensionally.

Thank you for the addition.

Can I ask why American white girls' hair styles have not changed in the past 3 decades?

I'd like to limit this discussion to haircuts from the 70s.

Wow! The "flaunt it" link was simply amazing. I lived in Ypsi for five years until moving to Dublin and I unfortunately didn't know about Big Bad D. I'll be back this Summer before moving on - maybe I can find him.

From the "flaunt it" article-
His industrial Singer chugs away at the leathery, scaly material, and a sinister alligator claw creeps out of the base, looking something like a scene from a horror flick.

So, does D. crawl around swamps and kill the huge reptiles himself?

“Yes,” he deadpans.

Terrific FPP!

Got it. Next time, don't be cute, spell it out. As Slothrop noticed, the topic was Detroit Hair Wars. The meat is the flaunt it link, which I should have put first.

But, hey, thanks for the other links. They need a place, too. Might as well be in this thread.

*shrug* those look like different hairstyles to me.
