Because it IS cool. GET OVER IT!

Mullets are hot, the wet Tony Perm can go. But the rule is you have to be under 35 to pull it off otherwise it means you never changed your do from the 80's. That's a different story..lol

LOL Ok, that was one of the funniest posts. But what do you do when you still get carded because people THINK you are that age? Does that change this opinion? Or do you have your stylist determine your hairstyle by a number on your driver's license? LOL

"are you saying that had you been in your 20's in the 80's when the big hair was THE THING...that you would have gone against the way all your friends were doing their hair and dressing?"

I am. Told them they were choking me with all the hairspray, and that I wasn't going to sit there and wait til they got it "ratty enough". Also wouldn't let them ride any where in the car where they blocked my view. Like I said, don't even have much respect for mindless trend whores.

As far as what style a person choses, it is a matter of personal taste, same as some people like brown eyes and some like blue. And maybe some of you should take into consideration that not all styles look good on everyone. Different bone structures and all. And in a day and age where men wear make up and everyone is punching holes all over and covering themselves with tattoos...well I would rather date a guy with a mullet (which I do think look incredibly stupid) than eye liner.

{Interesting comment coming from someone who was too young to know anything about 80's hairstyles during the 80's...are you saying that had you been in your 20's in the 80's when the big hair was THE THING...that you would have gone against the way all your friends were doing their hair and dressing?

As for why someone would still have a mullet or big frizzed out hair? I don't really care...to each their own and I'm glad people have different styles. WHile I'm not attracted to a mullet...I'm sure the girl with big frizzy 80's hair is so see, there's someone for everyone. }


Couple things, I agree that people SHOULDN"T wear their hair a certain way because others or the media or trends forces them to, but rather because they themselves want to and it makes THEM feel good.

If someone wants to wear a bald head/shaved head,mohawk or mohawk-like look (like I have now), long hair,short hair, slick back hair (like I did in the 90's) or whatever it should be THEIR choice and not a choice that is pressured by someone or something.

Be who you are, and be happy with it.

Are you talking about my hair again.


Most likely the picture is an old pick of them selves and tries to pass it off for a recent picture. I've experience that before.

Or , you just had sex and you take a picture right after that. This might resembles an 80's hair doooo.

Actually, Carrie's hair has the total Celtic-medieval thing going on, which totally and completely owns. Now that is timeless!

As someone who is sporting not eighties hair but seventies hair..why do i keep it, because men love it as a matter of fact many many women in their 20s have asked me how I do my hair. My family has continually tried to entice me many times to update but I have fought off all requests including one to go on a talk show to update my look and it is truly because I get many compliments on my hair..just like the phrase from the austion powers movie when Dr. Evil was telling mini me..you complete me..my hair completes me

The point was it doesn't matter if it's "in" or "out" or you are young or old. IT'S BAD. VERY BAD.

And I'm only concerned about people's hair to aggravate them and I'm seriously curious as to if people honestly think they look good with a bad poodle perm...

and to the woman with the "70s hair" I would have taken that request....you'd look so cute with a modern bob, or shoulder length layered cut.

shangrilah, i am sure that my figure does have a lot to do with numbers but I was on here previously and didn't have body shots for a couple of days and still ended with the high 30's on favs..and the majority of my emails to mention my body but most of them talk about my hair..so who knows...anyway love my hair whether is is 70's 80's or whatever..love it love it love it..

80's 90's 00's.....70's......it's always coming and going. I don't care to follow
trends because I know if I hang on to my look long enough, I'll be
in fashion again soon enough.

Anything 'new' (aka modern) that comes our way tommorow has already been around
the block a few times already.....blah! who cares!

As God is my witness I was driving in a neighboring town and in front of me was a guy and girl in their 30's both sporting mullets and his was longer than hers. I about fell out of the drivers seat laughing. God I love the south.
