Welcome to the Official Hair Website!

This website is dedicated to telling the truth about the origin and evolution of HAIR, the show that first came into public view in October 1967, a story of a crossection of young people in New York City's east village who banded together as a tribe and tried to change the world.  They found their own natural esthetic and, because they were so hip (yet in a different style from the earlier hipsters and beatniks), a new word was coined to identify them.  They came to be called  "hippies."
