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.
We have found some great vintage photos of 1980s hair and thank you to the website vintag.es who inspired us to do this blog post. Enjoy.
Clearly lots of backcombing and hairspray was involved.
