My hair is a statement and always will be, even when I no longer have any.

The social revolution of the Swinging Sixties led to a renaissance of unchecked hair growth, and long hair, especially on men, was worn as a political or countercultural symbol of protest and as an expression of masculinity.

No-one who was affected by one of a turbulent decade’s loudest controversies – or anyone who ever wondered what all the fuss was about – will fail to be interested in this personal account of when the ‘us and them’ divide between youth and elders was most profound.
