Ducktail


 

The Ducktail was a haircut style popular during the 1950s. It was also called the Duck's Butt, Duck's Ass, or simply D.A. (DA). The actual name was Duck's Ass, but propriety called for the name Ducktail to be used in mixed company.

Additional aspects of the Ducktail style

The rear collar of the shirt (or jacket) was turned upward. Cigarettes (a mandatory accessory) were carried in a rolled up shirt sleeve, thus putting them on obvious display and baring the arm. Low boots, tight jeans, and leather jackets completed the wardrobe.
