Not only clothing, but hairstyles as well, came in many shapes. For most, haircuts were shorter and well-kept, for a few of those more daring, spiked hair, tails, and bleached tips were favored. A wide variety of styles was seen around R-B this year - variety that added spice to self-expression. Student Life 25
