That’s why we’d like to take a look at some of the most popular 80’s hairstyles that are making a big return this year in today’s blog post.

Side Ponytail

Back in the 80’s, women of all ages love to rock the look of a lazy side ponytail. Not only was it pretty effortless, it looked kind of sweet and crazy all at the same time. However, today’s millennials are transforming this once-weird hairstyle to a more acceptable do. Now, there are a ton of ways to modify a side ponytail while keeping the look iconic. Take, for example, Beyonce, who has mastered this 80’s style with a modern twist.

Mullet

Are you a huge 80’s music fan? Do you idol Cher, David Bowe, or even Billy Ray Cyrus? If so, you may want to emulate your love for this time period by rocking a modern mullet. This strong 1980s hairstyle works well for both men and women and can be customized depending on the look you want to achieve. At unDONE, our Boise hair salon stylists will structure your mullet depending on the length of your hair to give you a unique, flattering, wild new look.

Perm

If one thing’s for sure, it’s that trends never die. That’s right, the perm from the 80s is back! Thankfully, however, this ageless trend has been updated from its former self, providing you with softer, more feminine curls compared to the tight, frizzled coils of the past. In fact, the modern perm provides you with an effortless, beautiful look that combines volume and texture in soft, loose, and tousled waves. It’s also extremely versatile and allows you to achieve a wide variety of looks based on your individual needs.
