During the Transition From the 1950s to the 1960s, Big Hair and Bouffants Were the Hairdos of the Day _ Throwback American Life

   

Fashion is always beyond our imagination. Looking back to the 1960s, “the bigger is the better,” it’s the fashion trend that seemed to be very common among women.

People have always been extremely dedicated to their appearance, and nothing exemplifies this better than 1960s hairstyles. Whether it was the “beehive,” the “bouffant,” or just the “oh my God, look at that thing,” fashionable hairstyles of the time all had one thing in common – they were huge, often larger than the woman’s actual head.
 
We have Jackie Kennedy to thank for popularizing big hair in the United States – her bouffant was similar to the big hairdos that were common in Swinging 60s London. Following her example, women around the country flocked to the salon and asked for hair that could reach the heavens.
