Hair Icon: Brian Connolly vs Dave Hill
January 27, 2009
One of the best things about 70′s glam was the hair.
It looked as though everyone had some sort of accident at the hairdresser.
Two of the best examples are Brian Connolly from Sweet (and just so everyone knows: I took my name from the Sweet song, not the Scorpions) and Dave Hill of Slade.
Who had the best/worst hair?
Brian Connolly:
Rollers were definately involved in achieving this style…
Dave Hill:
I’ve never been sure WHAT was involved in achieving this style….
In this photo Noddy Holder is making a bid for contention...
U decide!

i think its related to male pattern baldness, those sides creep up on you. its worth noting notty isnt photographed too often without the hat after this era… but that doesnt explain the choice. its mystifying.
This was a VERY difficult decision as both men have influenced my personal hairstyle choices, but I had to give it to to Dave on the basis of sheer social unacceptability.
