Fast Times at Hairstyle High

It's time for another round of Festive Fridays with Fun Stuff on the Blog!

So, my friend, Melanie had this on her blog a few weeks ago and it was sooooo funny, I thought I'd give it a shot. Ever wonder what sort of hairstyle or "look" you would have had if you grew up in a different era? Try some on for size (there are men's looks too!) at yearbookyourself.com.

Here's a few I tried... whaddya think???


1964 - I look more like the teacher than the student!!! yikes! Not a pretty look!
1966 - I think I would have liked this one. I mean, is the bouffant style really that much different than what we see lots of Moms sporting today??? 1968 - the "flip". We see this one still around today too. Not quite sure if it works with my face shape...ah well.
1976 - Yikes!!! I think one of my babysitters had this hairstyle.
1982 - Double Yikes! Can anyone say "Tootie" from the Facts of Life???

1994 - the Spiral/String Perms... oh yeah, baby!

1996 - Whoa! Glad I never went Blonde! Would definitely have to bleach the brows!

1998 - not too bad. Would look better on a different face shape.
2000 - The Big Bang Theory! I think I saw this back in the 90's too!

Go ahead - give it a go! You know you want to!

This was just too funny!!! I've got to go to the web site and try it. I loved those comments with each photos also. BTW, I like your hair straight for now. You look too feminine with curls. Well, it is not a bad thing but...maybe not you, smiley witch! hehehe

I actually like 1982. I think you look cute. In 2000 you look like Kim from Edward Scissorhands. This post was fun fun fun.

I think you are so pretty that you work in any era!!

And...if you can keep a secret...I am going to do the Pumpkin Gingerbread Bundt cakes for Iron Cupcake in November. If you want the recipe early, email me at sewing@wi.rr.com. But remember...it's a secret:-)

So funny! You are definitely right about the bouffant.... it is alive and well in Suburbia, USA.

Oh how fun! I liked 1966 just maybe if it was more relaxed. 1994 the spiral looked good, but to do something else with the bangs and I really liked 1996 just not blonde it would look good on you with your own hair color!

I liked the 1998 look.

Carol said...

You look is clearly timeless because they all look so lovely on you.

Thanks for the laugh.

i can't hold back any longer. there was this girl in my grade named tori and she had the '94 hairdo and you look just like her. i almost thought you had just stolen her picture or something. it's so creepy!
