The hair style you're referring to is the first girl. I said the girl wearing the cross and the leather jacket.
I caught the period accurate Farrah Fawcett hairstyle, although noted it was put on a hispanic looking girl, but that 2nd girl shown, that is a modern hair style.
The second girl looks to be vaguely styled after Joan Jett https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNDdlMTc1N2YtMmQxZS00ZjFhLWI0ZTItYWM4MjhhZGI0OThjXkEyXkFqcGc@.V1.jpg
And as I said, would be out of place typically in a 1970s Midwest Suburb.
In New York City, in the punk rock clubs, sure you'd find Joan Jett types.
You'd stick out in a suburb in Illinois. Not saying there would be none, but it doesn't ring true to authenticity that all of these characters are the "hippest" examples of the 1970s from different demographics.
Watch Halloween from 1978. Observe how the female characters dress. The wardrobe department picked the outfits and looks based on authenticity.
If an authentic late 70s neighborhood of people is what they were going for, they didn't land it.
This was at a time when looking even a little queer would result in you at minimum getting the shit beat out of you and run out of town, if not disappearing into the woods altogether.
