From tight curls to loose waves, curly hair brings its own kind of movement to the male figure. Larry Steiner, Andy Kozak, Jeremy Scott, Tony Nero, Scott Taylor, and Beau Lawrence show just how much variety can fall under that description.
1. Larry Steiner by Douglas Juleff - 1953 - in a reclined pose with abs engaged.
2. Andy Kozak by Kovert.
3. John Lacy reclining on what appears to be a box covered in fake turf...something tells me this may be Mizer's work.
Unlike the more sculptural shape of the Afro, these curls tend to fall, tumble, and misbehave. And on a nude model, there can be a nice visual rhyme between the curls above and the kinks below.
4. Gene Meyer by Kovert - 1945. (If anyone has a better quality version please email to bushnstache@gmail.com. Thank you, bns)
5. Ray Anderson in an oblique seated pose on a draped box wearing a posing strap.
6. Jeremy Scott by William Higgins. Taken from Park Meat magazine Vol.1 No.1, including stills from Higgins' "Boys of San Francisco" c1981.
7. Tony Nero in striped tube socks from Mandate magazine.
Hair color changes from man to man, but the texture is the attraction here—another natural pattern playing across the body.
8. Scott Taylor, 80's gay porn star well known for his talents at auto-fellatio and self-anal penetration.
9. Beau Lawrence in front of a bamboo fence.
10. Colt model, Keith Warlock, in front of a dark orange backdrop, from 1980 postcard series published by VISTA.

Larry Steiner looks like a young David Bowie; Gene Meyer reminds me of a cherub; Tony Nero is the ultimate rough trade; Scott Taylor reminds me of John Holmes; Keith Warlock is sexy AF. XG.
ReplyDeleteI see all your points...especially re: Gene Meyer and Tony Nero.
DeleteLes cheveux bouclés et ondulés étaient des attributs de la beauté masculine prises dans l’Antiquité.
ReplyDeleteLes photographes de physique recherchaient des hommes présentant ces traits pour imprégner leurs images du style classique de l’Antiquité qu’ils admiraient.
