In the UK in the early 1960s, the Beatles' “mop-hair” style was copied by boys who, on the whole, wanted and required/expected/supposed/anticipated to shock their parents. Later, middle-class “hippies” let their hair grow long to explain/create/perform/show their commitment to an alternative lifestyle. In the 1970s, “skinheads” shaved their heads and allowed/admitted/claimed/said to represent the working class; and for those who felt themselves part of a multi-cultural society dreadlocks were in/with/at/on fashion. In recent years, though, men's hairstyles have been more dictated by fashion icons like the footballer David Beckham who changes his look every few months, borrowing/using/lending/operating from styles anywhere in the world.
