I'm originally from Dallas, and in the 80's we made our hair as biiiig as possible. Teaze and spray!!! Touch it and it breaks.

I had a very wide mohawk. Shaved on the sides right up to the "corners", maybe 4 inches tall on top (and hairsprayed up like in that photo), mid shoulder blade length in the back.

Wow. You admit to that?

Got any pics?

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

My son, after spiking his mohawk (a process which included Elmer's Glue for stiffness) told me with a straight face that "if you don't get the first spike right, none of them look right." He had to tilt his head sideways to fit in the car.

Unfortunately, the camera had no film that night.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Toothpaste works well too, and I vaguely remember a concoction that involved egg whites that smelled terrible after several hours. I also remember having to turn my head sideways in the car.

I tried SO hard to get that big-hair effect, but it never reached any real altitude.

I did have a perm and bangs though - had to get up a full hour before go time just to do the curling and spraying and make-up.

Now? Half and hour from rolling out of bed to rolling out of the driveway. I've become low maintenance.

Oh yea, I remember those days. An hour to get ready.... I bet it was cute on ya anyway.

Back in the 80's most women looked like hookers, with all the dark makeup and crazy hair/ribbons.

Alot of the time the men had better hair Men with big hair AND spandex ----- aaaaagggghhh!!!

The big mullet hair was later 80's. We "feathered" our hair in the late 70's early 80's and mine was COOL. You had to be sure your ears did not show at all. I was all cleaned up for this picture, so they showed a little.

Hah! I'm scanning old pictures as they decompose, here's the only zoomie one I have of me in ROTC at Cal-Berkeley before the moderates on campus burned our buildings down. While everybody else with any sense thought this was a high-and-tight, Captain Marion McCurdy thought I looked like a shaggy dog. I think that's why he eventually introduced me to the Marine Captain who taught me a true appreciation for hatred of scalp hair while in uniform.

Yup...Feathering the hair and "wings" with tons of hairspray. If the wind blew, your wings could fly!!

I think it's all Farrah Fawcetts fault.

I had perms in the 80's but my hair is so fine it would never get very big. I did do the big bans though. Curl them under and fluff them up. There was nothing worse than having your bangs go flat on a humid day. And I lived on the Chesapeake Bay.

I got thrown out of school twice, because of the length of my hair. In 5th. grade, I wore a flat-top. The barber got it 'too short'. I walked into class and all the kids just broke-up. Principal sent me home for 'causing a disturbance. In twelfth grade 'cus it was too long (below my collar). That was in 1964. I went-out and got a regular boys haircut, that afternoon. Went to school the next day and all the guys looked like the 'British Invasion'!
