Big poofy curly hair is so 80s and therefore so UGLY!
The 70s and the 80s were a gross period for our culture.
No, no, no, the 70's was the pinnacle of bad taste, but the 80's were great! (OK, the '70's bled into the 80's just a little bit) And lazy, limp, flat, straight 'Marsha, Marsha, Marsha' hair is SOOOOO 70's(a carryover from the grunged, unshaven doped-up naturist end of the 60's.) A great debate could be started over the true cultural stylistic lowpoint, somewhere between 1969 and 1974. Even Saturday Night Fever was an improvement. The mid to late 90's approached, but never reached that stylistic train wreck, mainly because it was a retro imitation, instead of a true meltdown.
Goodness gracious, I'm not advocating Farrah Fawcett, Morgan Fairchild, or Rosanna Rosannadana fro's.
As distinguished from the 90's you mean? The 80's gave us Mr. Reagan, which covers that decade for me.
