As we all know, fashion and beauty trends are cyclic—what goes around always comes back around. And Brooke Shields may’ve just begun the resurgence of an ’80s staple: crimped hair.
The actress was an ’80s beauty icon (and let’s be real, will always be a beauty icon no matter the decade), and somehow still has the crimper she branded back then (in pristine condition!). So for old time’s sake, she decided to break it out and see if she could still rock the wavy style. (Spoiler alert: She totally can.)
“I found my Brooke Shields hair equipment that we did in the ’80s,” she said in a February 21 Instagram video aptly set to Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.” It appears that the lilac-colored set came with a few different wave widths and a mirror.

Crimpers? They crimp hair to have a kind of sawtooth-looking effect. Like a curling iron but it crimps instead.
Lookup: 80’s hair crimper
Some of the photos show how such a crimper works.
the school i went to was nuts over the- I thought it was horrible looking-
Leg warmers, leggings, and a long sweater... Yum.
sadly... she and bruce jenner are starting to look alike as they age.
LOL
Crimped hair make a comeback ?
I’d rather see big hair, hoop earrings and 5 inch heels back in style.
“sadly... she and bruce jenner are starting to look alike as they age.”
Yikes, Brooke really DOES look like the he/she Bruce Jenner. They could be twins.
The world is on fire and we’re supposed to care about somebody’s hair?
They do!
Also, she’s six feet tall.
Love those tall women.
Are Brooke Shields and Caitlyn Jenner sisters/brothers?
Yup, you pinned the tail on the donkey. Cindy crawford indeed also looks like “Caitlyn (Bruce) Jenner. Both Shields and Crawford could be “Caitlyn doubles minus the gender bending.
Oh my heavens, they do. Must use the same plastic surgeon.
