History Main / SeventiesHair

* ''[[ComicBook/SunnySeries Sunny Side Up]]'':
** Sunny gets her long hair cut at the start of the summer to resemble Dorothy Hamill's iconic style, the Wedge. She hates it.

Women's hair was also "hippie-ish" (long and straight) for the first half of the decade and puffy and combed-over during the second half (also a preview of EightiesHair). Outside of this wiki, when referring to "70s hair", people usually mean that sexy feathered hairstyle associated with Creator/FarrahFawcett, Kristy [=McNichol=], and Music/StevieNicks. Usually when referring to what's called '70s hair on this wiki, terms like "{{Disco}} hair" or the "mod haircut" are used.

* In the wake of the October 7 Hamas attacks and mobilization of [[IsraelisWithInfraredMissiles Israel Defense Forces]] reserves, and noting the timing of the attacks (exactly 50 years after the Yom Kippur War), it became something of a fad among reservists (who have much looser regulations on shaving and haircuts) to grow out a '70s style 'stache, which then spread to the rest of Israeli men.

* ''Series/InterviewWithTheVampire2022'': In "[[Recap/InterviewWithTheVampire2022S1E6LikeAngelsPutInHellByGod Like Angels Put in Hell by God]]", Louis de Pointe du Lac sports an afro in 1973. The male bartender at Polynesian Mary's has long, thick, wavy hair which is parted down at the center, which was typical for the era.

* ''Series/TheBradyBunch'': From ultra-conservative hairstyles during the second half of the first season (which fell in 1970), the hair eventually grew longer and far more fashionable for the era starting with the season. First, Robert Reed's hair was fashionably thick starting in the 1971-1972 season, and Barry Williams began perming his hair; Florence Henderson's hair also grew more fashionable. By Season 4 (1972-1973), Maureen [=McCormick=]'s hair was longer and very chic for the times, and Reed began wearing perms and Williams alternated between straight (with 1970s thickness) and perms. The final season (1973-1974) saw Chris Knight also perm his hair and Eve Plumb wear her hair long, although there were a handful of episodes where both [=McCormick=] and Plumb wore their hairs in buns. But even in the early years that fell within the 1970s, guest stars and other bit characters were seen wearing fashionable hairstyles, so indeed the Bradys lived in the real world, becoming far more obvious as the years wore on.

* Music/BrianMay still has his hairstyle and much of its color from TheSeventies, too.

Yeah, it's the sideburns. They were undoubtedly the defining feature of Seventies male hair, in addition to hair that was worn naturally thick--straight at first, and "hippie-ish" just like SixtiesHair during the first half of the decade (since the early seventies was really TheSixties Part II) but increasingly frizzy during the second half (a preview of EightiesHair) as the decade wore on, perhaps thanks to the influence of glitter rock, or possibly the Black Power movement. The other "very 70s" hairstyle is the Afro, immensely popular in the 70s (though it started in the late [[TheSixties Sixties]]) for most African-Americans, but [[PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy even white guys with curly hair tried to have one]]. Afros in fiction often tend to be [[FunnyAfro exaggerated for comic effect]]. Other "very 70s" hairstyles are [[UsefulNotes/{{Punk}} mohawks and spiked hair]].

** Much as Big Boss's hair in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3'' is a bit [[EightiesHair 80s]], EVA has a sort of feathered late-70s shag rather than anything more suitable for 1964.
