From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I thought it was cute!

[edit] Minority?
From memory, surely a majority of teddy boys and rockers had D.A.s? It was certainly a standard option in hairdressers of the era in the UK, methinks along with a Boston for hair trimmed in and cut straight across the back of the neck, the dreaded army style short back and sides, or of course a crew cut. ..dave souza, talk 12:08, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Illustration
This article needs a much better illustration than the current Fonz photo. The photo fails entirely to show the back of the head - the main feature of this style. Rklawton 19:34, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
- The current illustration is much worse, since it doesn't show a haircut at all, but an actual DA! 81.158.1.206 03:12, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think a duck's actual ASS FEATHERS tells you much about the hairstyle, but hey, that's just me. --69.138.61.168 05:11, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
The album cover image fails to illustrate what a DA looks like. This article really needs a good photograph of the hairstyle shot from the back. The actual duck image could then be subordinated for comparative purposes. Rklawton 21:17, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tom Hanks' hairstyle?
The main article seems to imply that the sidelocks are allowed to grow long enough so that they can be combed back, and tucked over the ears, as is currently characteristic of the actor Tom Hanks in the movie The Da Vinci Code. Maybe someone can post a picture of him to illustrate this hairstyle?
[edit] This article has gotten way out of hand.
For starters, what's this about "The actual name was Duck's Ass, but propriety called for the name Ducktail to be used in mixed company"? "actual name"? As established by the ISO special subcommittee on hairstyle names, I suppose.
And then there's this section on "Additional aspects of the Ducktail style". I don't even know where to start.
[edit] BS
This articke us total bullshit!
[edit] The picture is not enough
It’s a good picture inasmuch as it gives a 50s feel to the hairstyle. But don’t we really need one taken from the back? —Ian Spackman 11:47, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
