Didn’t the Debarges rock it too?

 

[get these nets]

OP

They had SHAGS on the old barbershop posters before Ralph rocked one.
If you're old enough to remember early New Edition, then dudes were definitely rocking SHAGS when you were little. Maybe not in your region or area.


360 waves with shag, feathered shag a la the Debarges, Curly kit shags, solid afro shags.

I hope that Dallas version never catches on. It looks like a hair keloid.

Theo had one too.

It was the cut for a few years in the early 80s, then it went to the rat tail, then just the fade/cameo, then the ceasar by the mid 90s.

Every other cut after that is corny.

Dallas bammas just picked up one of thousands of fashion trends ADOS discarded over the decades.

Don’t think they were checking on jeter back in the G

A shag or a rat tail is part of the NorCal scumbag starter kit.
