For me it was the standard mullet from the 80s. But to add insult to injury, the to was gelled and spiked straight up. Not even fashionable looking.


Like what this guy had, but totally mullet galore on the back.






hard. core.

When I was in 7th grade, I saw this photo in a magazine and I decided that I wanted to cut my hair in that style, not taking into account that my hair is extremely thick and wavy and that it would not work out on me. It was a bunch of short layers and good lawd, it looked like shit. As soon as it grew long enough, I cut my hair into a bob and I was cute once again


It was horrible.

And gat damn.... can there be some more hair threads up in here today?

my mom was bored, and i had long hair at the time, so she cut it. it swear i didn't go out for days, i had bald spots, i look like a fucking cheetah. lucky enough it grow back.

spiral. perm.

Since I took over control of my hair from my parents (cant remember how old i was) anyway, Luckily I've not had a haircut so bad that I needed a licence to walk the streets, unlike you.

When I was 7 years old, my grandma made me get the Dorothy Hamill haircut. It was hideous! I was already a four eyed geek and some of my front baby teeth fell out. It was cute on Dorothy, not on me.

it's a toss between one my father gave me at the age of like 5 or my first self cut circa 1989.

I had this haircut too!

Almost every hairstyle from age 10-15 was terrible.

I've had two perms in my life. The first one didn't really take because my hair was SOOO long. The second one took because my hair was shoulder length. I was going for the Mariah Carey look before she started straigtening it. I failed.

I had a poodle perm halfway down my back, with the curling-ironed, Aqua-Netted bangs (well, more often it was Salon Selectives)

And magenta lipstick.

Jelly shoes too?

PEJ said:

Yeah, when I was younger. By the time the perm rolled around, it was high-top Reeboks and several pairs of different-colored scrunched socks to match my outfit.

In second grade my Mom decided it was too much trouble dealing with my long hair in the mornings,and she took me to her friends house to get a haircut. I assumed this lady knew what she was doing, until I could hear my Mom saying "cut a little more to even it out." This went on forever, next thing I know, I am butch!!! I wore my jacket with a hood on it, everyday to school for a month..until the school called my parents to say there was something wrong with me.
