What was the most popular hairstyle in the ’80s?

It’s no secret that the 80s are back in a big way. From fashion to music, everything about the decade is making a comeback. So, it’s no surprise that hairstyles from the 80s are also becoming popular again. So, if you’re looking to give your hair an 80s makeover, here are a few tips to help you get started.

The big hair trends of the ’80s were all about volume. Women would use lots of hairspray and mousse to create huge, teased-up hairstyles. Some popular styles included the bouffant, the perm, and the crimped look.

One hairstyle that was popular in the early part of the decade but faded out by the end was the Farrah Fawcett flip. This style involved flipping your hair over so that it hung down in front of your face as Farrah Fawcett did in her famous commercial.

Many women also chose to wear their hair short during the ’80s. This often meant styling it into a sleek bob or spiky punk rocker look. Whatever the length or style, ’80s hair was all about being bold and standing out.

How do I make my hair look like the 80s?

If you’re looking to add a little bit of 80s style to your look, there are a few things you can do. First, consider using big hair clips or barrettes to give your hair extra volume. You can also try teasing your hair at the roots to create more texture. And if you want to add some color, try using temporary hair color spray in bright pastels or neon shades. With a little bit of effort, you can have hair that looks like it’s straight out of the 80s!
