1967—Straight and Shiny
1967 saw hairstyles becoming longer and sleeker once again, most especially embodied by singer Cher in this picture showcasing her super-smooth and sharp locks.
Cher, alongside her husband and singing partner Sonny Bono, became a household name around this time, first rising to fame as backing singers for Phil Spector, before making their mark on the music scene on their own terms.
When you look back at Cher’s videos from this time now, her long, super-straight, super-sleek hair seems like an entity of its own. It’s truly mesmerizing!
1968—The Beehive
When you think of the quintessential 60s’ hairdo, it’s possible that this is the one that first springs to mind. We are of course talking about the beehive, which sprang to the top of hairdo popularity in 1968.
Aretha Franklin was one of the most famous and beloved stars to sport this high-powered ‘do, rocking it here in a stylish promo photo.
This was also the year that Franklin released her second live album, Aretha in Paris, cementing her place as a true soul star.
