While women's hair was long, curled and
high-maintenance, men used their hair in short, military-like cuts, or
pulled away and down from the face. Men's hair that handled the ears
went contrary to the grain, and was even illegal in some parts of the
U.S.
Film stars like Elizabeth Taylor, Lauren Bacall, while popular men like Cary Grant, James Stewart and President Dwight Eisenhower wore their hair in a nutshell, severe cuts and Marilyn Monroe wore curly updos. Younger men had a little more latitude, but not much more; some emulated Elvis and James Dean ingrowing pompadour or a pompadour -like haircut.
For women in the 1950s, hair required a lot of work. If your hair was directly, the easiest way to curl it was to wear several little hair curlers (and/or wheels) within the hair, and then let them fixed on the course of hours, or possibly a night's sleep. Women may also go to the hairdresser and obtain a permanent, which might chemically set the curls inside their hair till it grew out or (with a few operations) increased slack with cleaning. Hits were highly popular among women; women actually curled them to match the remainder of their hair.

Handheld hairdryers, and curling tongs, became very popular in the late 1950s. Handheld hairdryers offered less detail for that regular consumer, but might make the hair higher and greater.
For men, electric razors also grew more popular within the 1950s. Guys began shaving themselves in place of going to the barbershop; this allowed their hair to become even faster inside the back, leading to the renowned "flat-top" hair of a very small back with longer hair to the crown of the head.
1950s hairstyles for men were restricted to the flat-top or pomaded hair combed from the forehead. Daring young men would get a pompadour or a quiff, a mixture flat-top pompadour haircut and. The D.A. (duck's ass) haircut was common among young men, though it had been frowned upon by more traditional users of the city.
Both women and men wore short hair. Because of the high-maintenance of the curled look, many women with straight hair held their hair at shoulder or jaw -size.
