The 1970’s saw many fashion changes and innovations for both men and women.  In 1972, Nike was established.  Nike had a very strong site, although the athletic craze was not as big as it is today.  Running shoes become a more popular choice for both men and women as they were comfortable, long lasting, casual, and could be worn around the house or out on the town.  Other fashion trends included boas, slinky shirts, as well as blouses, all of which became popular with celebrities and musicians.

People also began experimenting with their hair.  Popularized by Farrah Fawcett, hair styles were generally long and straight, with wings that took hours of styling with a straightening iron, curling iron, mousse, and hairspray.  Any physical activity would result in a ruined hairstyle.   Afro perms also became popular as they needed little maintenance and only a pick to fluff them.
