Flash back Tuesday
Banana clips! Do you remember those saucy little hair accessories from the 1980’s? This is one fashion trend that I confess to wearing. I had hair with personality (eer, well that’s what my mom always said) and the banana clip knew how to tame it.
How cool was it that you could pull all your hair back into a clip, and have it shoot out the back of your head in a vertical fountain of Vidal Sassooned tresses?
So how about you? Did you wear them? Were you alive? Did you have hair in the 80’s?
No comment on the grounds that I might incriminate myself has having no style!
I don’t think my hair was ever thick enough cos let me tell you, I’d try to wear a banana clip and it would always end up lopsided. Sigh…I wasn’t much in on that trend.
But the hair clips with big bows on top? Oh yeah, I wore those! LOL
These things actually followed me into the 90’s.
*bows head in shame*
Yep, me and my mom wore them. And my brother stole them, pretending that he was Geordie from Star Trek the Next Generation… Especially Mom’s gold one. :)
Oh, I totally rocked the banana clip. It was the only thing that would tame the frizz mop that was my hair…
Tho, it’s so much better than the curly mullet, which I confess I’ve had for entirely too many years. I’m very happy to be done with that. :D
