As a kid in the '50s and early teen in the '60s, I also wore a Butch and a Flat Top. But the guys who were called "hoods" (ie., hoodlums, whether they were or not) wore the D.A.s and pompadours. Think of the movie "Grease".We had "Butch" haircuts in our household.

I remember looking through the HS yearbooks and seeing a lot of flat tops during that time in CA.
