Editing Ducktail (section)

==Significance==
The D.A. quickly became a stereotypical feature of rebels, [[mobster]]s, and nonconformists, and gained popularity especially after the rise of rock 'n roll legend [[Elvis Presley]], who sported the same look. Although the ducktail was adopted by [[Cinema of the United States|Hollywood]] to represent the wild youth of the 1950s, only a minority of males actually sported a D.A., even amongst the British [[Rocker (subculture)|Rockers]] and [[Teddy Boy]]s of the same era. The style became popular in India after film star [[Shammi Kapoor]] sported it. It is also associated with men of [[Mediterranean]], [[Eastern Europe]]an and/or [[Latin America]]n descent, though in slightly different styles.
