Men had crew cuts, and women had bouffant hairstyles. Men had casual, plaid shirts with buttons. Women wore knee-length dresses. By mid-decade, mini-skirts were worn with boots.

Some slang words used in the 60s were A gas, meaning a lot of fun. All show no go was used to mean a car with all the cool stuff but couldnt hold its own. An ankle biter was a baby or small child.
