What was the black people hair styles in the 80's?

Wow!! I definitely have to think back on this one. Some of the popular hairstyles in the 80's for African Americans included the Jerry Curl, the High-top Fade (like 5-6 inches high), Fades with a design on the back or the side of the head, Ducktails (a small patch of hair left the back of the head), Basketweaves (girls hair braided in the form of a basket in front of their heads), Feathered Bangs, the Reverse Bob (where one side was cut short and the other side was about shoulders length), and long ';Dookey'; Braids (braids women wore that where very very very thick).What was the black people hair styles in the 80's?
Afros, Jerry Curls, fades, and finger waves!What was the black people hair styles in the 80's?
Not nearly as cool as the Afros of the 70's
70's had the afro. 80's had jheri curls, dookie braids.
Shut yo mouth neeguh I wuff mai beoald head.... Oh wait that's the 2000's.





In the 80's it must have been 'Word up my soul brother' with a giant afro.
The 70's had huge afros.





By the 80's, there were dreadlocks and greased curls (think Rick James).
Wasn't that the ';Afro';? Then they started ';The Do's'; like they wear now pretty much.
Lots of braids and beads or chemically straightened hair. No afros - the style was to try and hide the ';black'; hair by keeping it under wraps.
jherri curls, hi-top fades w/ duck tails.


big hair was big for women as well, bangs
Afros.
indiana jones hats lol
AFROS MAN AFROS
It was definately NOT afro's. Afros ended in the late 70s and were replaced by the curls. I know this becuase I had one until 2000. in the 80s people told me to get a jerry curl then they (fro's) came back in the 90s. jerry curls in the early 80s then in the late 80s flat top. also the shag and short hair for men with Vs in the back and parts. Butters, small waves. The same for women. there are always standards like short hair, braids... then there is some new stuff too...
they had BIG afros!
The hi top box! For men, and some women, at least. SOmetimes they'd wear a hair pic or a comb in it.
It was afros Ma brother..





Tha biggest hair in town got the free pimp..
Jeri curls, weaves %26amp; braids.
Biiiiigggg afros my man.
Maybe afro's? XD
';the_lips'; must have been BORN in the 80's because afros went out in the 70s, you dork. And if that was intended to be a ';racist'; comment, shame on you for even opening your friggin' mouth.





Then again, it would have been better if afros were in, because it was (cringe, gasp) those horrible, dripping, sweet-smelling Jheri curls that were all the rage back then. Yuck. Relaxed hair was getting popular, some chicks were still rocking cornrows, French braids, but mostly for dudes, it was either tall, boxy close-cropped ';fades'; or for chicks, it was springy set curls.





Yep. Those were happening times, ';the _lips';. You should have been there.
huge natural afro.
Afros died in the 70s.





In the early 80's it we wore something called a shag. (a mullet for black men) Some processed their hair. (as you can see, Al Sharpton still does!)





The mid 80s we wore closely cut afros called ';naturals'; or ';half-fros';





The end of the 80s started the ';fade'; era, which is close on the sides (sometimes to the skin) and faded upward to a close crop.
jerry curl jerry curl!! afro and uh cornrows?? i dunno. i wasn't born in the 80s!!!!
in the early '80's, afros were the thing. After those lost their appeal, many black people would straighten or perm their hair. Some would oil it down with Jeri Curl. Yuck. By the late '80's you'd see lifts and fades on guys and curly bangs on girls. Think MC Hammer and Salt n Pepa or the Cosby show...
I think it was basicly afros
Dreads
pressed hair . You know like with a pressing comb and tight curls at the end. Buns and jerry curls. that what my aunts hair looks like in all the picturesof her holding me as a baby. She was really stylin and profilin.
the same as now

try growing your hair out and doing layers. thats the only thing that keeps my hair tame. the shorter mine is, the curlier it gets. ask your hairstylist what she thinks you should do also
I'm the same! I put it in a high pony for that slinged up look or this is nice http://z.about.com/d/beauty/1/5/8/i/curly14.JPG or natural with a slight brush

What the difference between straight hair style and relaxed hair style?

i was looking @ my 17 mag


%26amp; @ the hair section


%26amp; i wasnt really sure what the different is....


help me......


pleaseWhat the difference between straight hair style and relaxed hair style?
Striaght hair is simply stright hair.


Relaxed hair, is usually slightly wavvy with some volume. Not really cury or wavvy and not really straight.





Straight hair also has more of an ironed down look, while relaxed hair has the look of a natural wave that's almost done straightening itself out (like a day after taking a braid that's been in your hair overnight out)What the difference between straight hair style and relaxed hair style?
Straight hair and relaxed hair is basically the same, but relaxed hair is chemically straighten by a product, tcb relaxer or gentle treatment. Straight hair style is when the hair is washed blowdryed straight or hot combed straight, a relaxer last longer than a hot comb, because a hot comb is basically the name of it and a relaxer u can get ur hair wet.
Straight hair means, well...not naturally curly.


Relaxed means that you have used a chemical straightener on your hair.

Any good websites where I can find sample hair styles for my wedding day? Also what perfum would be the best.?

www.theknot.com has a photo gallery for hairstyles and everything else.





Perfume? depends on what you like and if it is in fall or spring.Any good websites where I can find sample hair styles for my wedding day? Also what perfum would be the best.?
I think there's one called hairstyles.com. You do have to pay a subscription, but you can upload a photo of your face, and ';try out'; the hairstyles you're considering.





As far as perfume, I wore Beautiful by Estee Lauder on my wedding day, and still only wear it for ';special'; occasions (like anniversaries, etc.) I really like Amazing Grace (by philosophy) and I also like their Falling in Love fragrance. If you're wanting to pick a special scent for your wedding, the best way to do it is to go to a department store, and try no more than 2 at a time--1 on each arm. Don't buy anything that day, let the chemicals and scent develop, and see how you like it an hour or so later. Keep doing this until you find one you like.Any good websites where I can find sample hair styles for my wedding day? Also what perfum would be the best.?
just type in bridal hair pictures ... hundreds will pop up
Theknot.com and weddingchannel.com have large photo galleries. (I found theknot's to be easier to navigate, and I thought its pictures were much more to-date.)





If you have any bridal magazines, I suggest flipping those and paying careful attention to the hairstyles in the bridal gown ads. I liked these styles more than the ones on theknot, and it's easier to take a copy of the magazine to your hairstylist than a printout that might not have good quality.





Good luck!

I have mid-back length hair and I need some ideas on hair styles!!?

I always wear a ponytail and It gets old!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!! P.S. my hair is very thick!!!!!!!!I have mid-back length hair and I need some ideas on hair styles!!?
My hair is exactly like you described.



Styling options:

1.) Get brown or copper brown highlights

2.) For the front, get bangs and have the back cut in layers with the inside layers cut shorter and the outside layer longer so the hair will naturely curl inwards.

3.) Part your hair in the middle, right side, or left side.

4.) Wear a hair piece (There are nice hair pieces at Banana Republic and Jcrew.)

5.) Tie your hair in a bun and place chopsticks on either side.

6.) Use your imagination and have fun.I have mid-back length hair and I need some ideas on hair styles!!?
Check out beauty.about.com



They have lots of links
if its thick i wouldnt get layers i think that only adds volume. look for styles that would flatter your face shape. you should def try wearing your hair down. if your face is square or heartshaped i think a few face framing angles starting in at the chin would soften up your face. if your face is oblong try a regular angle from below your chin and maybe some long side swept bangs. if your face is round id try keeping it straight but adding some bangs. just talk to your stylist first and make sure she agrees on what would look good with your faceshape. good luck!

id check out this website to see what will def look good with your face http://beauty.about.com/od/hairbasics/a/flattering.htm
Hope Below link will help you.
1.wear it in a bun

2.wear it in layered curl

3.formal hair-style(A prom hairstyle)

if i was near you i would do it myself becuz i do hair!
if you split your hair into sections (like some people do when they straighten their hair) and curl it the curling (like spiraling) goes a lot faster and is REALLY cute!

straighten it and wear It strait
If you dont mind fake hair try 16 or 18 inch extensions, like at arashairintl.com , from there, try a press and curl or flatiron and the possibilites are endless! Long and silky straight is always sexy. And moisturize the hell out of your hair because the heat is damaging!

i am not sure exactly what you are looking for so just try looking it up on your yahoo or google search engine . i did and found a lot of great results .
I couldn't understand a word of that, but I get the concept.

Straighten it and leave it down. That usually looks good.
is this question in english please help I don't understand or maybe I'm just crazy.
