But you know, being about 15 when "Little Lies" was released as a single, I remember buying it at Woolworth's, and thinking that Stevie's hair on the cover was just about the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
I mean, remember this was 1987, and it was totally fashionable for a woman to have her hair all coifed on top, with straight extensions and color streaks. Stevie did it, Ann & Nancy Wilson did it, Cyndi Lauper did it (in her own inimitable way)... and heck, half the girls I knew tried to do it (they never did quite succeed)!

At the time, it was just really hip, really glamorous "rock star hair"... it's easy to laugh at it now, but at the time, it was ultra-stylish and cool.

(Now, where did I put my old parachute pants, and the shirt with all the buckles? Hmm.......)
Oh yeah....you had to have the parachute pants....i had a grey pair and that was it....didn't really have any other trendy stuff....no Michael Jackson jacket.

When i saw the "i can't wait" video, now THAT was the coolest hair i had ever seen. It must have taken her hours to get that style....I've seen pics of the RAL tour in the beginning and she wore her it that way but it didn't last long....must have been a hassle....

Personally, i don't waste time laughing at the styles of yesterday because those styles were the fashion. It's ridiculous to take something from 20 years ago and make fun of it because, yes, nowadays it isn't in style. Sorry, i just remember when people laughed at the styles of the 70's (platforms, bell bottoms etc) in the 1980s....then you know what? it all came back in style.

Anyway, sorry to be sensitive. Not feeling so good today. Carry on.
