1. Besides being ugly..
I love having that extra ten minutes in the morning that used to be dedicated to hair styling and I still could never get big, poofy hair. My hair is straight and there's no way I'd ever destroy it like that again. HELL NO!!

2. I think the use of hairspray in that decade helped deplete the ozone layer too... Peggy didn't mind.

5. The chick on the right is hot, but no way are the two men her kids...
The hair, colors, and background make me think "1988", but I'm probably off a year or so...

(Thanks for the compliment :) ) This was June 1989, the day before I found out WannaBe was on her way.

6. These were the times that tried men's souls(and patience)
An awful time to be alive. I'm not even sure I'm happy to have survived. The flashbacks still impact my life.

8. No, I've been Big Hair Free for several years now
Even if it does come back into fashion, I'll let the young women take a turn at frying under the perm solution. I've done my time.

12. Mostly agreed, but as a hair metal fan I can totally get behind the right guys
with that look.

19. hell no
I was a little kid in the 80s, and the worst damage I did to my hair was a crimping iron. My hair is so straight, I am glad to be able to wear my hair naturally.
