Memory Lane

I was going through old papers and came across this list of questions my friend gave me.  She gives them as gifts along with a journal to capture memories and tell the stories we want to someday share with our kids.  I have always thought this was such a great idea but I have never taken the time to do it.  I thought that as I continue to blog I can capture these stories and maybe add some old photos to along with the stories... if I can fine them :)

Question #1: Describe a few of the favorite hairstyles of your youth.

This one is easy... BIG HAIR.  I grew up in the 80's so big hair was, well, big.  Everyone permed thier hair, we wore it as puffy as we could.  And for the lucky ones who had bangs, they would tease them so they would stick literally straight in the air.  Some of the guys wore thier hair long, maybe shoulder length especially as we got closer to the 90's and the grunge look became popular.  The guys would also have ducktails in the back, some would even have the mullet.  Most of my guy friends had shorter hair as they were athletes but it is still hilarious to look back on.

I have no idea who these people are but they fit the mold for the 80's... I didn't graduate until 1991 and it was mellowing a bit... but not much.  One of the fashion trends we all hope doesn't repeat itself.
