CommentHarry King, WorldGreat – 1976
Photo: Norman Parkinson
Harry King described this 1976 hair cut on Yolande Gilot for GQ Magazine as “a revolutionary haircut.”
“I cut Yolande’s hair off, many different lengths. No one had ever cut hair this way before,” he said. “It wasn’t cut in the conventional way, apart from taking sections from the back and working forward. Within my sections, I cut into the hair, not the ends, cutting in all directions and lengths.” This short, flattering haircut is very modern and wearable today, even though it was done in the seventies.

This stunning short curly fuss-free hair by Harry King was created in 1976 but it is as modern today as it was way back then. At the time “it was a revolutionary haircut because it was cut in many different lengths and no one had ever cut hair this way before,” said Harry King, the king of big sexy hair with over 100 Cosmopolitan covers to his credit. For those into Hair History, it is worth reading the whole story and seeing more of the WorldGreat’s hair – CLICK HERE

CommentBig Beautiful Bow – 1982
Photo: © Eric Bowman
Repost. Because this is so lovely. Wrap it up in a big beautiful bow as WorldGreat Harry King did with the big teased-to-there hair on lovely model Nancy Donahue for British Vogue, in 1982.
Vogue said the glorious smock was gold, the velvet leggings jet banded mink. Really, all this works today, the hair and the fashions. Just as the friendship between the hairdresser and the model does; they are the best of friends all these years after this great photo was taken (in Loulou de la Falaise’s Paris apartment.) For 37 Harry King photos archived in an album, his big and his innovative hair from the ’70s and ’80s, CLICK HERE

Harry King was famous for his teased up to there Big Hair, seen on over a hundred covers of the world’s major magazines. But he could also cut a cool short look. As here on the sisters and international beauties Tina Chow (a fashion icon) and Adelle Lutz for Harper’s Bazaar in 1981. “When they showed up for the shoot, Adelle had long hair, but not for long,” remembered the King. “I chopped it off.” For more by WorldGreat Harry King, click HERE
