Cutting Girls Hair Hairdresser Salon Skinhead Teesside 1972
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Skinhead girls get a haircut. 1972" we are transported back to the vibrant and rebellious era of the 1970s. The image captures a powerful moment as two young women, proudly identifying as skinheads, sit in a bustling hair salon in Teesside. It is evident that they have come to make a statement with their appearance. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as the skilled hairdresser prepares to transform their locks. With determination etched on their faces, these fearless girls challenge societal norms by embracing an unconventional style that defies gender stereotypes and embraces individuality. As scissors meet hair, we witness not only a physical transformation but also an act of empowerment. Through this simple act of cutting, these women reclaim control over their own identities and assert themselves within a subculture often misunderstood or misrepresented by mainstream society. This photograph serves as both documentation and celebration of the diversity within youth culture during this period. It reminds us that fashion choices can be more than just superficial trends; they can become symbols of resistance and self-expression. Preserved by the Teesside Archive, this snapshot from history invites us to reflect on how personal style has always been intertwined with social movements and cultural shifts throughout time.
