Wouldn't it be a riot to have a sequential series of photos... we didn't take that many pictures back then though. My daughter, however, will have lots of photographic evidence to remember all her styles over the years... whether she wants to or not!<BR/><BR/>Caffeine Court: Ha! I knew it! Great minds think alike!<BR/><BR/>Cardiogirl: Thank goodness my dad was artistic... he had a great eye for lines and balance; and never had to resort to using a bowl.<BR/><BR/>Two Write Hands (Love that monniker!): I don't remember any boys "liking" me at THAT age!

I lamented it until one day in third grade a cute boy said he liked it and kind of had a crush on me.Two Write Handshttp://www.2writehands.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6747832045286924202.post-31743235954304016032008-03-16T06:20:00.000-05:002008-03-16T06:20:00.000-05:00My dad used to use the clippers to give us a bowl cut. HATED IT! And he always messed up on our bangs. Instead of a straight line he always had one side shorter than the other, so he kept trying to fix it. Eventually our bangs looked like a 45-year-old man's receding hairline. It sucked.<BR/><BR/>I can still hear and feel the buzz of the clippers against my forehead. (shudders violently)<BR/><BR/>But yours looked cute! You know, 30 years later now that you don't have to deal with it.cardiogirlhttp://www.cardiogirl.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6747832045286924202.post-87362277801122269622008-03-15T22:04:00.000-05:002008-03-15T22:04:00.000-05:00I LOVE IT!!!

Sometimes words can come rushing back with the glimpse of an old photo…<BR/><BR/>Ann(ie): A flat iron! Yes… in our day, we used a REAL iron to straighten hair… yup, head on the ironing board, praying your mother wouldn’t burn your neck.<BR/><BR/>Mommy Bits: Bangs on the BACK of your head? Yikes!!!!

They're both adorable pictures!!!!! I had short hair most of the time I was a kid & everyone says now that I looked like a boy.

I grew up during the Dorothy Hamel craz. I had a pixie cut for years and I hated every minute of it.<BR/><BR/>Oh and after the Dorothy Hamel phase, I entered the perm phase. Kind of looked like your perm, but much, much shorter.Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12657666136876447043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6747832045286924202.post-67202675237466304702008-03-12T11:49:00.000-05:002008-03-12T11:49:00.000-05:00Good thing you didn't marry Pig Pen.

I have had a head like that most of my life, though I just learned how to deal with my fro tendencies (gel, and lots of it!)<BR/><BR/>You look beautiful in that picture, though. You could be a model!<BR/><BR/>Now, the picture I'm going to post on my blog will not bring anyone joy, only sorrow. It's going to make people cry. It's "fierce." Fiercely ugly. I can't believe I said I would do it, but I'm locked in now. Look for it within a week.Kathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12168816435565273787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6747832045286924202.post-17982379565219009462008-03-12T09:25:00.000-05:002008-03-12T09:25:00.000-05:00My naturally curly hair was:<BR/><BR/>permed<BR/>curled with a curling iron<BR/>brushed straight<BR/>cut by my mom<BR/><BR/>Needless to say, my hair was the bane of my existence as a child and a teenager until I figured out how to care for it.<BR/><BR/>My mom cut my sister's pin straight hair often and once nicked her eyebrow.
