I just saw someone make a comment on the club pages here at DiscoMusic.com that looks interesting for further discussion. He wrote that he was a long haired  rocker type when his friend took him to a disco in 1974 and saw all the guys dressed in three-piece suits dancing with beautiful women. The next day he went to a hairstylist and traded his long hair for a DA. I instantly had flashbacks of begging my Mom not to let my Dad take me to a barbershop for a crew cut. Instead I wanted the cool thing which was a D.A.! Even back then that was not cheap.

Love to hear your stories about what you considered "the" haircut back in the 1970s.
