That broccoli hairstyle has become popular in recent years, but originated in the '80s among fans of new wave music.

I'm just confused over the idea that a bunch of middle schoolers are begging their mom for a perm.

So the lifecycle of everything is approximately 35ish years. When I was a kid, bell bottoms were popular, and consequently, they were also popular in the late '60s and early '70s, just as an example.

I want a pair of JNCO jeans.

I never had a pair before. The reproductions are a bit overpriced tho

I know they're not the same as bell bottoms but That's what I nostalgic for that I didn't actually experience. Born in the 90's btw
