1. '80s big hair comes in a distant second to '60s big hair ...

Now THAT is some big hair.

2. I remember well my older sister going to the beauty parlor each week for a

hair alignment! That, was pretty serious work keeping that all in alignment! LOL! Now, looking back, it's wow!

I recall when I was in grade school they used to look at our hair twice a year as part of the school physical, one was a lice check, they used a black light. Once, the dr. found a nest of bugs living buried in one of my classmates hair, one with 'really big hair.' She had no idea. She was clean and all. A bug must have flown in and raised a family in her hair!

She was really creeped out about it. So embarrassing!

8. They had to use the extra heavy duty hairspray that sucked the oxygen from the room...

In those days, entering the bathroom after mom finished her hair required a hazmat suit.

3. Now that's hair!

[Coventina]

4. I couldn't help but giggle

over the "Lord, Touch Me" album.

Because I'm a horrible, horrible person.

a prediction of things to come.

9. I'm surprised Dusty Springfield and the B52's weren't in the mix.

The one with Mom and Mini-Me was LOL. Poor kid-that's almost worse than when my mom gave me Toni home permanents.

10. some people will do anything to be tall

I remember the optical effect of "beehive" hairdos when the woman was short and had a six-inch mass of teased and sprayed hair on her head and was also wearing heels, 4-inch or more. Sometimes they would be wearing those big glasses and dangling earrings. Whew! A lot going on!

See #12 for approximate.

It's so unnatural. Really makes you wonder what was going on in people's minds.

One hairstyle, #8, is so big it looks like there's a small animal in there peeking out.

Really funny that these are mostly Christian singers.

How did they sleep with that stuff on their hair like that? For sure a good 10" down from the headboard!

11. Mom got hair done once a week and wore pantys on her hair to preserve her "DO"

Rolled my on orange juice cans and ironed it.
