A Flock Of 80’s Hair-Don’ts
Why yes, I am going to post stuff about the 80’s everydamnday, so learn to love it!
While most people remember 80’s New Wave band A Flock Of Seagulls for their huge hit song, “I Ran,” my favorite is “Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You)” because of its melodic wistful beauty. I also remember thinking lead singer Mike Score had the fruitiest hairstyle ever. Even in the 80’s. But as fate would have it at some point I attempted to exact this look on my own dome and ended up with a cross between a fauxhawk and a mullet. Let me tell you, it was NOT pretty. Of course, very few hair styles from the 80’s were. I present you with some offenders:

Hey, now…I had the Cyndi Lauper do back in school, and I looked pretty hawt! (mom drew the line at letting me shave the sides, but I got away with it by using barrettes)
Do you remember in Pulp Fiction where Jules turned to the guy on the couch and said, “You, Flock Of Seagulls…” They said it was because the guy had that haircut. He’s even credited as such.

Hey D, post a pic of YOUR 80’s do. Enquiring minds need pix or it didn’t happen.
