...every summer 'til I was about 8. After that, just a plain crew cut 'til I was about 13.

In the 50's as well as presently I was and am the "butch". AKA "skint" 1/8" long. Like my amps and my beer , it's DIY. In the mid to late sixties it was "Beatle" then in the early seventies it was "Jim Dandy Black Oak Arkansas". Then from about '76 to mid 90"s "Dirty Harry".

My dad cut my hair. He was a Navy man. Butch. Hated it. When I was old enough, I let it go long. Looked like little Lord Fauntleroy. Embarrassing.

That goes with a DA = Duck's Ass, not on the chart. Popular in the late 40's among late teens, 20's crowd. Was considered daring at the time, for hoodlums & early rockers. Common smokes were Camel, Pall Mall, Chesterfield, Old Gold, Kool. Filter smokes were considered effete or effeminate. Mid-late 60's I remember guys who would bum a smoke, get a filter cig, then complain & rip the filter off before lighting up.

As a youngster my folks alternated me short/long year to year. Crew cut for the short, "college contour" for the long. When I got to college no more haircuts for a while. Now it's self-regulating :shock: stone bald on top & I use a beard trimmer on the sides, keep 'em in control, just like in the avatar but adding a lot of grey lately, not going for the Ben Franklin look. And NO hipster mini pony tail, puhleeze!

What guys, no mullets?
