Full force permed mullets of the late 80s
That bluesman down south with that greasy ass Jheri curl

Marvin Sease has the worst Jheri Curl ever. I love his music, but his hair is horrible. When I saw him in concert, I couldn't tell if he was sweating or if grease was dripping.

Hey, I like the song, "Candy Licker". He does have some bad songs, but he has several that I love. I really love "Motel Lover", "Ghetto Man", "The Bitch Get It All", "Hittin' and Runnin'" and "You Used Me".

Yeah Bboy, but I am aiming for some photos of bad 70s afros rather than the 80s/90s curls and fades

How are Jheri curls made? Are they really bad for your hair?

After Jheri curls came that fadeded stripes look??

When will the black people begin to let their hair grow again?

Gets a child hazzled when he/she sports afros nowadays? (because it's not chique anymore)?

Oh man, sounds way to uncomfortable and expensive to have Jheri curls. Plus, it didn't look well on most people anyway.

The hi-top fade has to come again, though!

It's such a cool hairstyle white folks can't adopt.

it's not real. white folks have to put grease or better, cement, into their hair in order to make it fix. I now what I'm speaking of!

Excuse me if I'm ignorant or if it comes across racistical, but I imagine, a black fellow just has to let his hair grow long and cut it on the sides and the hair risis up like a tower without spray and stuff?

They just need someone who knows what they're doing so it can look natural.

It's not. I was being funny. smile

I know white people with really curly hair that could pull the "high-top" fade off. For instance, someone like Justin Timberlake may be able to get away with it. His hair is really curly and tight. Sure, it's not kinky, but he could do the fade thing.

it looks silly on white folks, though?!

I'm still following my George Michael 1988 hairod. I think it's a hairdo that existed through the whole century. James Dean had it more or less too.


Will Smith's hi-top looked fine.

I recently noticed some really ugly 90s colours came back. Purple with neon-yellow and stuff. Terrible, but I gotta have it though.
