70s Facial Hair: A Hairy Tale of Style and Rebellion

Ever wondered why your dad or grandpa's photo albums are chock-full of pictures where they sport ridiculous moustaches, enormous sideburns, and goatees that could double as wildlife habitats? Well, you can thank (or blame) the 1970s for that. The 70s facial hair was an era of rebellion, style, and a ridiculous amount of hair. We're taking a stroll down memory lane to revisit some of the most epic (and hilarious) facial hair trends of the 70s.

Our store Tribute to the 70s Facial Hair

Before we dive into the hairy depths of the 70s, let’s take a moment to appreciate our store's collection of realistic, hilarious 70s facial hair costumes. Our store, www.costume-shop.com, has got every iconic 70s facial hair style covered - from the luxurious handlebar mustache to the rebellious goatee.

The Mustache Mania

The 1970s were the golden years for mustaches. It was considered almost a societal norm to have one. There were various types to choose from - the Chevron, the Walrus, the Horseshoe, the Pencil, and the king of them all; the Handlebar. It's almost as if men woke up one day and decided their upper lip was feeling a bit chilly.

Glorious Goatees

Goatees were very much the rebel child of 70s facial hair. They were for those who wanted to make a statement without fully committing to the mustache mania. Goatees were for the cool kids, the artists, the musicians, and the philosophers. Plus, they were a great way to test out how you’d look with a mustache without fully committing. It's like flirting with facial hair.

The Sideburns Saga

Sideburns in the 70s were not just mere hair on the side of your face; they were an institution. They had personality. They had style. They had girth. The bigger your sideburns, the bigger your social status (or so men thought anyway).

The Full Beard Frenzy

The full beard was for the brave souls who decided that a little bit of hair on the face wasn't enough; they wanted their entire face covered. These men were often nature enthusiasts, outdoorsmen, or just really into ZZ Top.
