Vintage Photos of Big Hair in the 1980s

The 1980s were a time of excess and this included the hairstyles.

I remember the fuss about hair in the 1980s, even though I was at at school. I had various perms and had my hair highlighted. It looked more grey than blonde most of the time though!

Plus, to have your hair highlighted involved a painful plastic cap with holes in. Then a knitting needle was used to pull your hair through. Agony.
