About This Quiz

When it comes to hairstyles, old photographs need no date. It's easy to pinpoint the exact era by the 'dos alone! From the fringe bangs of the early '60s to the feathered flips of the late '70s, hairstyles offer a unique peek into the past because, in retrospect, every decade had its own definitive looks. From bobs to beehives, you can practically guess the year with a mere glance.

Of course, in many instances, the subjects of those photos might prefer it if those images never saw the light of day again! After all, despite the fact that certain hairstyles are trendy at that particular moment in time, many often regret their choices in hindsight. (I mean, have you seen an '80s high school yearbook? One can only imagine how many cans of hairspray were used to achieve those mile-high 'dos each day ...) Even you have probably looked back on photos from your youth and thought: What was I thinking?!

But, thanks to nostalgia (and the Internet), older hairstyles are making a comeback as people look to branch out from the standard straight locks that have overcome this current era. People want variety, and they're looking to the past for inspiration. However, there is a multitude of styles to choose from, which means you need help. Luckily, you came to the right place! By examining your personal preferences and style, we'll help you discover your ideal hair era so you can establish your own signature style.
