Subject: Most Guilty

Written By: oldmusicfan on 03/06/20 at 4:10 pm

Who was the most guilty of wearing horrible 80s clothes, makeup, hair, listening to bad music, watching the cheesiest movies, and wearing ugly shoes in the 80s? Was it the Baby Boomers, members of Generation Jones, or Generation Xers?

Boomers

Did you wear scrunchies or hairbands in the early to mid 90s?

I wore scrunchies and bandanas wrapped around my ponytails in place of scrunchies. That was mid 90s.

The high hair trend was dying at the start of the late 90s. Straighter hair was acceptable again in the 90s, all thanks to Danica McKellar portraying Winnie Cooper in The Wonder Years.

Was that the Jersey girl style or what? Their hair was higher than Peggy Bundy’s.

There’s a reason you don’t see too many TV shows and movies set in the late 80s and that was it.  ;D
