Hair styles way back then?

OK this question is for all of us....when you were a kid and you had to go get your hair cut, did you want to choose your own style or did your parents make you get the ones they thought appropriate at the time? mine used to be very long when i was little and my mum took me to the hairdressers and had it all chopped off really short....i hated it...it looked like a billy bowl head and was mistaken for a boy on many occasions, i wore a hat for months till it grew, my fringe was all jagged and the back was really chopped short, mum said it was because i'd just started school and she didn't want me catching nits....does anyone ever remember their worst haircut?

wow thats a stupid reason to cut a kids hair, i mean i could understand if you actually DID catch them, but anyways, my parents always let me decide what to do with my hair, but if I was gonna do something that would look bad, they'd tell me that it wouldn't look good.

a popular hairstyle in the early 70's was called the 'feathered look'.It wasn't 2 bad and some styles i've seen on young trendy girls nowadays kinda resembles it. One of the worst must be an 80's lads cut called 'the step'. sure it was fashionable, but it was nothing to write home about.

Usually my version of a hair cut - was a 'Trim' - and my hair would be dampened down with a water spray!

However I do remember all the girls in my class at one stage all started growing their fringes out. Then a few years later it was trendy to have your hair cut in a bob and get it permed - when starting secondary school.

I was an 80's kid!
