Life is absurd. Lean into it.
It really emerged in the early 80s. Not sure why.
It predated the 80s, when people used to rock waves in the 60s and 70s, the line would be cleaned up. It probably just evolved from that. But hip-hop is where it took off.

before steve harvey most people thought this was a decent haircut. doing more than this was only for people who were famous entertainers.
a regular barber wasn't hooking you up like kid and play back in the 80s. ( i remember specifically asking for that and my mom being like
hell no, but i was really young) plus not everybody getting their hair cut by a 20 year old shirtless barber either like dude above said. Most of our barbers was some old nikkas in his 50s and 60s.It wasn't until old head barbers starting noticing steve harvey during his kings of comedy run. His hairline looked particularly crisp that even regular brehs started recognizing that they needed to step their game up.
later we found out it was actually fake. but before that people got away with just clean hairlines. After they needed to be laser sharp.

How Steve Harvey Ruined My Hairline | NaturallyCurly.com
"
Enter The Steve Harvey Show in 1996.
Mr. Harvey defined his brand with tailored suits and the straightest edge up man has ever known:
This changed what customers expected of their barbers. No longer was it good enough to have a well groomed natural hairline, customers wanted perfection. Or what they thought was perfection, as Steve Harvey himself, once upon a time kept a natural hairline (though you would have to dig deep in the archives to find that photo).
