His hair is correct for the period


So I think Daniel's haircut is correct for the period - I saw a lot of comments saying it was wrong.
If anyone has seen Boardwalk Empire, which is also set in the Prohibition Era, most of the men have the same haircut: shaved on the sides, longer and slicked back on the top.

Apart from that, I DO agree that he has the vibe of 21st Century hipster... :)

The haircut isn't totally off, but the facial hair definitely is. Fashionable young men in the 1920's were clean shaven; in fact most men in the 1920's went clean shaven. Sometimes you saw closely groomed mustaches, but beards were considered passe, and scruff was NEVER a fashionable grooming choice until this century.
