Horror Hair Legends: Paul Breitner And His 360° Afro/Beard Fuzz Bomb
By Chris Wright
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.

This is awesome. The Milan Kundera penned Despodent Mariner is followed by more joyful times, living la vida loca on a racetrack. Probably in Rome. In the last one, well, he’s definitely THE Prince Malko Linge.
Dear Pies, thank you for keeping track of lore.
