Summer of Love: Who Wore it Better?

Pop CultureSummer

Our Summer of Love celebration highlights music from the 60’s, (the 1560’s, 1660’s 1760’s 1860’s and of course, the 1960’s) and one thing we’ve noticed is the more things change, the more they stay the same. Especially when we’re talking about hairstyles across the centuries! So, just a little fun as we “let our hair down”: Who wore it better?
