Paul Breitner: German box-to-box goliath of the 70’s and 80’s, World Cup winner, possessor of a long-range shot akin to amplified thunder, vocal socialist, 60-years young today and the once-proud owner of a full 360° of seamless Afro/beard hybrid head fuzz – thus making him a bona fide Horror Hair legend…

Here’s a few more of ‘Der Afro’s’ signature looks.

1. The ‘Windswept Farmhand’…

2. The ‘Despondent Mariner’s Summer/Winter Collection’…

3. The ‘Ponytail’…

And finally, 4. The ‘Jeff Lynne’…

Glücklich geburtstag Herr Breitner, long may you reign/backcomb.
