I was still young in the 80s — young enough to have a big hairstyle.
In 1980, I was pregnant with my first child and for the next 10 years, I was pregnant a total of almost 4 years and breastfeeding for 7 years. I had four children by 1990 and two miscarriages. My hairstyles went from the classic to the short-short boyish cut to the big big curly hair, back to the classic. I’m never one to stay with my high school or college hairdo — I don’t want to be stuck in some kind of time warp.
But when I look back I find the humor of it all and have to laugh and wonder why I didn’t just stick to the classic look.
