Chelsea girl
From Haircentric.com
(Redirected from Chelsea girl (culture))
A hairstyle that involves shaving the crown and occiput of her head and leaving the front, back and sides as fringes. The hairstyle is more commonly called feather cut in the United Kingdom, but this hairstyle is only the more "extreme" version of a skingirl cut, that may involve short to medium length hair on the crown, and longer fringes on the side of the face and a little shorter on the neck.
Although the name Chelsea is more common in North America than in the UK, the term originates from the fact that the style was first commonly seen on the Kings Road, in Chelsea, London, England. From the 1960s until the mid-1980s, the Kings Road was known as a haunt for youths from subcultures such as mod, skinhead and punk.
