THE ORIGINAL

I really like the style of the REAL original skinheads from the 60s. NOT to be mistaken with racist right wing groups who took on parts of the skinhead style but has totally different agendas politically!

The Skinhead culture originated in the 60s from youth of working class London and spread throughout England and later the world. There were no political beliefs really, but they were concerned with workers rights and culture. They were super inspired by the West Indian /Jamaican ‘Rude boys’ (a lot of skinheads were black) and British ‘Mods’ when it comes to music and style and listened mainly to Ska, Reggae and Soul music. The name ‘Skinhead’ comes from their super short haircuts and I think these girls look super cool!

From the movie “This is England” It’s a favorite of mine!
