Surprising Things Men Found Attractive 50 Years Ago

Fifty years doesn't seem like a very long time, but it's enough time for things to have drastically changed, including perceived beauty. From rising hemlines to androgynous looks, the things men found attractive dramatically changed as the world moved into the second half of the twentieth century.

Hair dye was not always considered entirely acceptable, but that started to change half a century ago. Part of the stigma came about because it was considered vain and disrespectful. But it also had to do with safety concerns surrounding the chemicals used to color hair.
As the decades passed, the introduction of home dye kits made colored hair more common, and by the 1970s, nearly half the women in America were reaching for these products. Hair dye company Clairol marketed blonde hair as attractive and desirable starting in the 1950s, pushing the color with ads oozing sex appeal. Clairol even brought us the phrase "blondes have more fun." It's no surprise that by the time the 1970s rolled around, many were opting to go blonde.

Many of the most admired women of the era like Farrah Fawcett rocked blonde strands. Other notable blondes of the time include Debbie Harry, Olivia Newton-John, Meryl Streep, Peggy Lipton, and Joni Mitchell
