How to spot a ‘Hippie’

June 11, 2010 by Bob Borson

Real Hippies don’t look like this

We all have our own version of one travel game or another. You look at someone and based on their appearance, you develop a story for who they are and how they came to be in this moment. As Michelle and I were traveling to Paris, we seemed to see a surprising number modern day hippies….bleeech. Time has not been kind to most hippies, something that I am at a loss to explain. All that love and kindness, healthy lifestyle, proper diet, What gives? So in a matter of moments I put together my list of today’s modern day hippie requirements.

They look more like this – I bet he smells like peanut butter and she smells like patchouli
  1. Dry, Long, Wiry, Kinky Grey Hair. This is not a shot at grey hair – I had grey hair before it moved through the ‘white’ period before settling into it’s current state of ‘clear’. No this is more a comment on lustre, or lack thereof. It is most assuredly related to the same root cause of;
  2. Ashy skin– most likely due to an avoidance of consuming animal proteins. Hey man, I’m cool with you being a vegetarian, just don’t start getting on me about animal cruelty as I pan down your wardrobe and see your;
  3. Leather Jesus Sandals. Ooohh, leather doesn’t grow on trees and you can’t be a real hippie and wear any kind of petroleum product..tsk, tsk. At least today’s modern hippie can sustainably wrap themselves up in being green and wear sandals made out of recycled tires. Otherwise, go barefoot Brother Unicorn.

    Brother Unicorn
  4. They never wear new clothing – How is this true? It’s got to be new at some point but since we all know this is true, there must be some fold in the Hippie time/space continuum, the doorway to which can only be found after consuming mushrooms that show up in the alley after it rains. This clearly leads us to;
  5. Ill Fitting Clothing. I will go ahead and make the assumption that their clothing doesn’t fit them because they either found it behind the port-a-johns ‘after the show’ or made it themselves using needles made from fish bones.

    Okay, she probably did make this outfit
  6. No Make-up. Again, nothing wrong with that – just an observation but it is however, a crucial non-ingredient that defines the hippie. This of course excludes any makeup that is used in any manner other than concealing or highlighting – i.e. daisies painted on your face.

    this does not count as ‘make-up’ (and is that a budding young architect in the glasses?)
  7. Consumers of Health Food Supplements. I would even go so far as to say they are enthusiastic consumers of such hippie dietary supplements including: wheat grass juice, fish oil, oregano extract and St. John’s wort.
  8. Straw Hats. All you have to do is look at the above picture and you know this to be true.
  9. Fanny packs. What do they keep inside these things? My guess is incense and rolling papers.
  10. Pony tails on men + braids for women (or vice-versa). You can’t have short hair and be a proper hippie. For that matter, I don’t think you need a brush either. For some inexplicable reason, dirty looking hair and the hippy ‘look’ go hand-in-hand. Step one: rub dirt and potato chips/ cheez puffs into hair. Step two: take a dirty shirt and rub vigorously back and forth across head. Step 3: Sleep in Microbus. Step 4: Wet hands (saliva is most likely used because it’s free, available, and smells perfect) and work into pony tail or braid. Perfect.

    I’m thinking ‘Tic Tac’ (photo credit Deanne Fitzmaurice)
  11. Laid-back demeanor. I assume this is either from hallucinogenics or the lack of needing to be ANYWHERE.
  12. Body Hair. Beards, armpits, legs, whatever – as long as you have it and the more the better (preferably worn ‘clumpy’ style)
  13. Unusual Personal Aromas. This doesn’t mean stinky although you say po-ta-to I say pa-tah-to. Some of the usual suspects include: patchouli, oregano extract, or licorice (or star anise as they undoubtedly would correct you), and other members from the ‘herb’ family.
  14. Neck Kerchiefs/ Head bands/ Doo-rag. Hippies start off using head bands but as they lose their hair, they move onto the doo-rag.
  15. Oral Hygiene.This is a touchy subject but I think that Hippies like to keep their teeth clean but they don’t want to use fluoride (look it up – it’s totally true). Ever heard of Miswak? It’s sorta like anise and it used in natural toothpastes, that and other delightful flavors such as Myrrh and Propolis. Mmmmm, it even sounds like it smells good.

So as I went through 6 major airports, spotting today’s ‘extreme’ version of the 1960’s hippie, I just got to thinking when did things turn so unfortunately for the hippy? How did we go from:

A real 1960’s Hippie Chick

to this

Hippies were once a symbol – a youthful subculture that grew out of counter-cultural ideologies of the Beat Generation that embraced psychedelic rock, free love and pot. Now they mostly look like homeless people which isn’t really fair to homeless people. Now that the hippies have all grown up, all I can say is stay away from psychedelic rock, free love and pot (and maybe Whole Foods Market).

    I really like this blog! Although bob I feel Mabey you were a bit tough on the hippys! I’m sure you mean no harm but you also insulted homeless, of course that isn’t the way to be, really nice pictures! I’m used to seeing protest hippy pictures this gives you a whole new look on hippys

    Despite its negative attitude, this blog was actually very nice to read. You are very entertaining, but it would be appreciated if you weren’t so subjective in your writing. Obviously, you are not a hippie yourself, so you absolutely cannot generalize based upon one photo of a couple of old men in tie dye shirts. As in everything in life, there is way more than one aspect of a subject, so please don’t assume that all people who are labeled as hippies are all exactly the same. Try to be open to different ideas in life, and you will be much better off.

    I was really really enjoying your blog until this post. It read as very judgmental, dismissive, and I can only imagine is the product of a sheltered life and limited perspective on the world. Your writing has been so enjoyable and informative, and this one seems SO out of place. :/

    Most of the people who self-identify as hippies look just like your
    “original hippie” photo. And also some look like businessmen and women,
    in suit jackets and ties, blouses and skirts and heels. Some look like mothers, fathers, college students. They look like
    doctors, real estate agents, veterinarians, waiters, landscapers,
    pilots, construction workers, ship captains, and anything you can
    imagine. Trying to reduce them to a single style or lifestyle is your
    limitation of understanding.

    I’m so sorry the lowest common denominator showed up here and there to simply attack you. I don’t wish ill on you by any stretch! The opposite, in fact: I hope you have some positive experiences in your life which expand your ideas about what makes a person valuable in our world, hippie or not. In the meantime, this post you intended as a “joke” reflects poorly on you professionally from where I’m sitting.

      Well, I can’t uncrack this egg but since I have written over 700 articles, don’t you think it would be a shame to judge me by this one article?

      For the record, I am not making fun of people who are hippies, I am making fun of the hippie stereotype. The people you mention that look like doctors, real estate agents, veterinarians, etc. – they aren’t mentioned in this post. If you check the date, I wrote this article almost 5 years ago and despite the fact that I am getting killed by the majority of commenters here, I let people have their say. I could have closed the comments, I could have deleted the ones that said I was going to hell or that I am a miserable person but I figure that if I am going to put something on the website I should be prepared to take what comes along with that action. The irony is that most people can’t see past their own prejudices to realize that they are behaving no better (and in some instances, far worse) than how they are claiming I am behaving.

      Live and learn.

    I feel you are an ignorant individual… And lable hippes based on your perception of appearance…I enjoy bathing and maintaned hair…matter of fact I’m quite attractive… yet I am and have greatfully been labled as a hippie most of my life by my closest friends…not based on appreance but on my spiritualism…caring…self reflection…loving and helping others…the fact that I can be happy without materialistic items…let me enlighten you on your misguided labels. Your ignorant sterio types are out dated…I would suggest opening your mind, put a little effort in your research, maybe some field work and updating your opinion before misleading other lazy and simple minded individuals like yourself that would believe any of this….I say sarcastically, best wishes being part of the demise of human esistance.

      I love how “hippies” come on here, with their righteous indignation, and in turn do the very same thing to me that they are claiming I did to them. Hmmm.

      I suppose one good turn deserves the other but if you think you are really all that unique, you are kidding yourself. And congratulations for letting us know that you think you are quite attractive, that really helped your argument.

      I’ll also give you a pass on calling me ignorant despite the numerous (8) misspellings in your comment. Everybody makes mistakes – who am I to judge you?

    Give Bob a break. Im guessing mid 50s, travelling with his family. I consider myself half hippie. I love music, I love hood herb, I love inner peace, but I also work before I play, and dont expect my 3rd grade Ukele lessons to keep me afloat. Oh and a good shower, and haircut. In this new world, if you really want to move society, ya cant look and act like a bum. Isnt that what the movement was about? Changing society?

    There are some funny comments and observations. I do wonder why you feel the need to stereotype. You only mention the most superficial attributes. I can only assume you were not there at the time doing anything related to counter culture. There’s no fondness in it. Also, it would be more interesting and more meaningful to describe and consider what went before and what came afterwards. It was ,after all, a reaction/ responce to the 1950s and the older generation’s way of life.

    • Bob Borson says

      February 20, 2015 at 9:38 am

      I only mentioned the most superficial attributes because this was intended to be a superficial article written only to amuse. I personally don’t know anybody that fits this description, but I do know a lot of “hippies”. There is a second hippie-related article on this site that compares hippies to architects … turns out that there are many similarities; idealism, consideration for the planet, the well-being of our common man, and many more.

    June 17, 2014 at 7:27 pm

    Oh and by the way, the top picture of the girl where you say real hippies don’t look like this? Most of us did! Because its not about the way one dresses, its about life style and beliefs!

  14. TheCountessOfRochester says

    June 17, 2014 at 11:46 am

    As a person who grew up in a hippie commune with REAL hippies who were
    part of the CND movement and lived for protests, animal rights,
    wildlife, I can say that half of this is NOT true! There was rarely a
    jesus sandal in sight, more on the men us women wore a lot of wedge
    sandals in bright colours, we all made most of our clothes from original
    70’s fabrics so they fitted well, and bought the rest in vintage stores
    and actually none of us had bad breath, In fact many of us had better
    teeth than I have seen in non hippies! we used alternative toothpastes
    that were not tested on animals, the no fluoride thing is utter rubbish!
    There was no excessive body hair on the women and in fact half the men
    did NOT have facial hair, we all showered daily, grew our own fruits and
    veg in the garden, ate edible flowers and the women DID wear make up
    but we chose one that were not tested on animals and were careful about
    the ingredients in it!

    • melody says

      January 1, 2015 at 6:17 pm

      Just say no to fluoride. I will agree with that and I’m 37 with no cavities. Xylitol is the better option. I don’t want fluoride in my water either. Look up the ingredients of Prozac.

    From an enlightened new-age “hippy”, I applaud you for this article. I found it very funny!

      May 20, 2014 at 12:25 am

      i must have been really high but i don’t remember writing this but clear as day on my screen is says “you wrote this”

      it looks like something i would write, and sounds liek something i would say.

      i’m a hippie by choice, a 29 year old disabled vet, who has little more to do that well explore the world,

      I call my self a hippie, i hang around the old school peeps, i listen to funk and mental, and bob Dylan not always at he same time, I love my tie dyed onesies and high fashion cloths, though i rarely have the money for them.

      but at the end of the day if you take it all away, and left me naked in the street i would still be smiling, because i have a genuine love of life that is impossible to steal, though i have been known to share it with friends 🙂

      so as “I” said before, humility is one of the greatest treasures of life, and we must all take time to laugh at ourselves,

      Namaste my friends, be well

      • You says

        July 16, 2014 at 4:17 pm

        We are all you, consciousness is a collective being.
        My ego likes your ego, though! The more our egos reflect happiness and peace, the happier all of us will be. Let’s continue to walk that path and spread compassion where we can.

        I am not going to call all of the Bob-haters here fake, but from my ego’s point of observation; It is easy to put yourself into belief, but it is not so easy to put that belief in yourself. I feel disappointed that “my people” here share so many hateful words, but it’s refreshing to see the light in another!

        Namaste!

    October 21, 2013 at 1:03 pm

    This is one of the worst things ive read, just a list of stupid stereotypes that everyone knows, many of which aren’t at all true. Also the last two pictures are wrong, the first one of a ‘real 60’s hippie’ is taken recently, defiantly not before the 90’s and the second picture is of old people who probably were hippies in the 60’s. Your an idiot. I hope you didn’t get paid for this. Writing this article was a waist of your time, and reading it was a waist of mine. Much like this comment but the other way round

    noting wrong with the hippie lifestyle since they believe deeply in world peace and believe we all can benefit from it. psychedelics and the blessed herb…..yummy ;), is freedom of use. nothing wrong with that too. if anyone truly respects hippies, love them and they will love you back. im all for them 😉

  23. Rachel says

    July 1, 2013 at 9:48 am

    While you are entitled to your opinion, this piece indubitably elitist. You’ve made it clear that the “hippie lifestyle” is not something you’d even consider, and that’s okay. However, mocking any lifestyle is rather unnecessary, and insinuating (as I observed in comments as well as the piece) that an alternative lifestyle is NOT a lifestyle is even worse.

  24. joemikes says

    May 5, 2013 at 9:58 am

    i’m sorry but i’ve got to disagree with you on most of your points here! i dont think its really possible to define a “hippie” just by how they look or smell and what you’ve described in your list sounds like serious extremist hippies and you can’t really say that all hippies are like that! being a hippie is about the mindset more than anything and you dont necessarily have to look like anything in particular to follow a philosophy

    • Bob Borson says

      May 5, 2013 at 3:15 pm

      I agree with you 100% that you don’t have to look like what I shown here to be a “hippie”. But if I don’t know you – and by extension your “hippie lifestyle” all I have to go on is the cover to the book (so to speak).

    Bob, this is awkwardly true. Your are very brave to document these observations. Many of these original hippies have relocated to Southern Cali, even those hippies haven’t been reduced to what your and In have observed above. Well done, sir!

      You are absolutely correct in that all hippies don’t look like homeless people. There is a difference between people who live like a hippie and those that embrace the intellectual ideals of being a hippie. One is easier to spot than the other.

    September 17, 2010 at 1:21 pm

    Are you sure you weren’t on Mayne Island off the south west coast of British Columbia, Canada on the weekend? Seriously I think I must be a hippie with my long (though shiny) mane of silver hair that has never been coloured, a face that seldom sees make up (weddings, if I remember to bring it), smelling slightly of incense after last nights vegetarian potluck which ended in a healing circle. But my earthen coloured clothing has none of the brilliance of these tie-die wearing friends. And my smile is not from smoking herbs but rather the beauty of living along the Salish Sea. Great post!

    My closest neighbor to CedarBerry Woods looks like the guys in the photos. He’s got green teeth and walks around barefoot in the woods even around nettles. In the summer he just wears overalls – only overalls. Don’t ask me how this became obvious. ;_) That far into the Oregon coast range we are all called tree huggers and our creek is pronounced crick. Yes, I do hug my trees. They are so big I can’t get my arms around them.

    • Bob Borson says

      July 13, 2010 at 7:48 am

      Arms around a big tree sounds like the first step to getting sap on your face. I like to look at big trees – one day I’m going to make a trip up to the Redwood National Forest so I can actually see a sequoia (I’ll probably try and hug one of them so I can check it off the list).

      • cyraduquella says

        July 13, 2010 at 12:53 pm

        I’ve planted some Coast Redwoods on our land and have 3 in pots in my backyard waiting for transport to our green heaven. Wow, they grow fast! I don’t think they will get big enough to not get my arms around in my lifetime.

    Forget the clothes; why does that budding young architect in the background of the photo look so disgusted? Jealous about tie-dye perhaps! I would like to mention that somewhere I have a groovy leather & lace vest from junior high that was roughly from that period. Seeing this pics makes me want to wear it somewhere, right after I brush my teeth. Did I mention that do this day I cannot stand the smell of patchouli? That junior high thing again. PS. Very funny post. You are a witty cynic: a cynwit.
