Time traveller warning:
Do NOT go into the bathroom after these three were done prepping this in there, and then attempt to light a cigarette.
DO NOT DO THIS.

You can tell that Left knows she has the biggest bangs by her facial expression.
Is that what they’re called? We always called that style the bang poof.

can confirm..my ex from the 80’s had that same style on the right.
Mall hair.
Simply awesome, and I genuinely mean that.
You can smell the Aquanet in this photo
I do not miss this bullshit.
Didn’t the one in the middle try to kill the Ghostbusters?
>Is that what they’re called? We always called that style the bang poof.
Can we get a regional breakdown here? Where I grew up the front part was called a Bird’s Nest (TX).
So far:
Firecracker bangs (??)
Bang poof (??)
Bird’s nest (TX)
I called this style back then as a “Pre-Frontal Mohawktomy”.
Looks like a compilation photo of my girl friends in high school haha
We called the style on the right “The Claw”.
I remember walking to the locker area in my school and not only was there a cloud of hairspray hanging there, you could literally taste it anytime you opened your mouth.
I remember well.. doing my quiff with a lot of sugar dissolved in a spray bottle with water….& then the hairdryer & the hairspray.
Really difficult to wash it out
I think those are satellite dishes for pocket TVS
High hair, low morals……
I know this as “the Utah Claw”.
Absolutely NOONE in the 80’s called these firecracker bangs??? WTF?
CFCs, baby.
In whatever modern throwback nostalgia-bait TV show, movie, or glamour magazine they’ve put out in the last 20 years, hair-and-wardrobe fails to nail the foamy crested latherous upsweep of hair that seemed so effortless of this time. The secret ingredient must be chlorofluorocarbons!
The school hallway always smelled like Aqua Net.
Is this the name of their group ..?
Uh huh , you’re thinking it too
I wuould literally fuck this three ladies in the ass without any protection man… oh wait, it’s 1981
Why am I only now, at 66-years-old, hearing the term “firecracker bangs”?
And I raaaannnn
I ran so far awaaayyyyy
I still wonder how the girls I went to school with made it to school in the winter without wind sheer snapping their necks…
80’s drag
I never understood why women thought this was attractive. Then again I dated a woman for six year who worked very hard every morning to shellac this onto her forehead.
Holy 80’s hotness!
I graduated highschool in 1986, and I’m here to say these girls would have been the super models of ANY party.
And that was the reason for the hole in the ozone layer.
We legit just called the actual action of it ” doing my/ our bangs” we didn’t have a name for it. I grew up in the 80s in Pennsylvania btw.
