Austrian Alpacas Rock Retro Hairdos

More on PawNation: Alpaca, Awesome, Farm Animals, Funny, Grooming

    In the market for a new hairdo, but not sure what you want? Look no further: we've got spring's hottest new hair trends, modeled by Austria's most fashionable alpacas. Every April, farmer Erwin Stadler and his daughter Carina shear these critters' woolly coats to prep them for the summer heat.  

    Borrowing a page from hair's most epic era--the 1980s--the Stadlers style their alpacas' thick coats into fabulous "Breakfast Club"-worthy coifs. Get ready to rock.

    FOREVER YOUNG

    Is this alpaca a Rod Stewart fan? It certainly has the rockstar's distinctive hairdo, messy blonde spikes all around. It probably only dates models.

    LET'S DANCE 

    All this alpaca needs is a little bit of makeup to pass for David Bowie in "Labyrinth." The grass stains on its chin are a good start.

    ALPACA TO THE FUTURE

    Great Scott, Marty! If my calculations are correct, when this alpaca reaches 88 miles per hour, we're gonna see some serious shearing.
