Culture Changes
S.T. Karnick has written two articles, one on the Fifties (which weren't really conformist) and the other on the modern day. I don't agree with everything he writes (for one thing, short hair on men is not tough—it's childish), but it's a very interesting read, and quite penetrating in places.
FWIW, the proper hair length for men is about the shoulders, and for women the lower back. Only boys and the louse-ridden should have short hair, as it is a symbol of weakness (e.g. Sampson, Apollo &c.).
