Grebo

When first coined in the late '60s, the term grebo was applied to young rocker-type men who
(a) let their hair grow out (not necessarily long, just out),
(b) possibly left themselves unshaven, and
(c) listened to rock music.
It was applied to biker-types rather than hippies. The term was vaguely derogatory, but not directly insulting.

- Look at'cha! God, mate, you're such a grebo!
- Thaaat's right. If it's good enough for Paul Kossoff, it's good enough for me.
