LOL...to this day,I STILL can't believe that I walked around with all that curl activator on my head smile


Those crazy 80s!! smile


Yeah, well at least you never had huge crimped "madonna-like" hair, now that is just embarassing
I guess all 80s hair styles were bad, huh?

nah i was a victim it was a curl on top of a perm it makes your hair straight were the perm is and it makes your new growth swell up. luckily my hair as well as his grows fast so people forgot real quick or didn't even notice.

if your not african american i can understand you not knowing what the afro was about, but guess what caucasian people wore afros then too. it was a statement of rebellion, of not conforming to the system. I guess just like dredlocks were before they became widely excepted. he looked nice with an afro.it's that dirty mind era that we can't deal with.

that was the grow out of disater period. i actually liked it then. he was comming into finding his niche to become his purple badness or whatever. its just like if you look through the family album at yourself and you say what the hell was i thinking then what was i going through. what did prince say on the soultrain award when they went through his career? oh my God how embarrassing!

oh that album well either he had it straighted with a hot comb or he had a perm. he looked cute to me but i was used to seeing men with their hair done up like that. it was a late 70's early 80's thing before the curl. im just giving away my age.

yep and prince was trying to do his hair like andre and it didn't work. im tell you dude it was a curl on top of a straight perm and it made his hair striny on top and thick at the roots. I've seen it and i've lived that same nightmare myself. i remember when i was a kid we were watching one of his videos and my cousin yelled out his hair looks like a curl that didn't take! and we all died laughing cause it was true. i guess back then it was hard to keep up a perm or a press and curl on tour so the curl would be the ideal way to go. just put in the activator shake it and do the jheri curl!

i have the hot comb as my back up too and the electric oven too. i liked the way he shook his hair and he had more meat on his bones too. my husband does not believe me when i say he had muscles when he first came out i showed him the pictures and he just fell out laughing. dirty mind brings back memories of my own hard disaster. it didn't take away from his music and his face. did you notice by controversy his hair was shorter and a little more tamed. he was on his was he just had to figure out what he wanted to look like.

I guess just like dredlocks were before they became widely excepted. he looked nice with an afro.it's that dirty mind era that we can't deal with.


Nah, I'm not talking about his afro, I thought he looked good with that, I'm talkin' about the way he looked on his self titled album and in the videos for "I wanna be your lover" & "why you wanna treat me so bad?".

oh that album well either he had it straighted with a hot comb or he had a perm. he looked cute to me but i was used to seeing men with their hair done up like that. it was a late 70's early 80's thing before the curl. im just giving away my age.


Oh the hot comb, my best friend. Anyway. I hated that look on him (wasn't too crazy about the controversey hair either) I actually kinda liked the dirty mind era hair.
i have the hot comb as my back up too and the electric oven too.

Yep, gotta have the oven.
i liked the way he shook his hair and he had more meat on his bones too. my husband does not believe me when i say he had muscles when he first came out i showed him the pictures and he just fell out laughing. dirty mind brings back memories of my own hard disaster. it didn't take away from his music and his face. did you notice by controversy his hair was shorter and a little more tamed. he was on his was he just had to figure out what he wanted to look like.


Yeah, always loved the music and he he had a cute face, but some of his hair styles, I just can't stomache.

okay and i was silly enought to do the hair do's from the purple rain era. you know when girls were feathering their hair to the middle i had mine to the side. gosh i was so weird. but that's cool though.

Yeah, once my sister saw that movie, she tried to get her hair to look like Wendy's, took her about an hour to get ready every morning. Now me,I wantted to look like Madonna, hair with rag in it and all, those are some memorable times, quite embarassing too.

Okay,
who's was the scariest?


ALL of 'em!! evillol Aren't we glad Princey didn't fall into that trap?? biggrin

his hair during the dirty mind era his hair looked like a curl that didn't take. look at the videos and the photos from that time. i know cause it happend to me too. cause you can't put a curl on top of a straight perm.


Yeah, I always thought that too


...either that or he just had some etremely bad hair days then


:O I hadn't even thought about that! omfg I always thought he just put a bunch of shit in his perm - a little mousse, a little gel, a bit of sweat, BAM! If that was a sad curl attempt, thank goodness it was foiled!! biggrin


Remember how he looked in '79? What in the hell was he thinking then?
I also thought he sort of had the "curl look" in the 1999 video-sort of.

if your not african american i can understand you not knowing what the afro was about, but guess what caucasian people wore afros then too. it was a statement of rebellion, of not conforming to the system.

i went through the madonna phase too. how many black girls did you see with the desperately seeking susan french roll with the headband tied in a knot rolled up pants and a million bracelets. those were the days.
