Subject: Help! I need 80's hair and makeup advice!
I am going to a big 80's themed party next weekend, and I have my loud flourescent outfit all picked out, but since I'm only 17 I'm not sure how to do my makeup and hair. Please tell me what the "look" was for 80's makeup. and How did people get their hair so big and poofy, My hair is kind of curly to begin with so I just need advice on how to get "BIG HAIR!" Any one out there who used to have "mall hair", or even knew any one with this kind of 'do, please post back with some help.
Thanks Missy

You got that right! Aquanet is the "Hurricaine Hair" spray! It will withstand any hurricaing force winds. Remember to feather the hell out of your hair too. That was big in the 80's. Just spike those bangs up. One thing that will help is if you hold your bangs between your fingers and blow dry the roots while you're holding your bangs up. Then curl them backwards, and tease the crap out of them, and apply your Hurricaine Hair Spray. My best friend in high school had a lacquer layer on the dash of her Mustang from spraying Aquanet on her hair in the car while driving. How she never set herself, and the whole car on fire is beyone me, because she was smoking the entire time she was spraying her hair. Have fun at the party!
