We see some boys with longer hair. This mean in the 1880s, hair down to, but not necessarily over the ears. The longer hair was styled in many different ways. Here we think social class was involoved. They were mostly younger boys from well to do families. Except for ringlet curls, we do not see very many longer hair styles in America, at least for older school-age boys. We ee very few boys at school with the longish cuts. Any by the 1880s we begin to school portraits that can be used to assess hair and fashion styles. Boys with longish hair at school are virtually non existent.
