1960's Hairstyles

For many people, Audrey Hepburn (pictured) epitomises what was great about the styles of the day - her well-known film, Breakfast at Tiffany's was released in 1961.

Of course, the biggest hit of this decade was the Beatles - many people believe that they shaped and even defined this era and their hair was one of the first times that men started to experiment with a different look or style.

And it was also the era of "free love" with hippies.

For hair fashion, it means plenty of short, perfectly styled hair, epitomised by Twiggy.

There was also plenty of long curled hair and chignons- natural styles were out.

And of course, hair stylist such as Vidal Sassoon really helped to shape the sixties style too.

Top films for this decade:-

• Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
• Billy Liar
• Doctor Strangelove
• Goldfinger (James Bond)
• Midnight Cowboy
• To Kill a Mockingbird
