Fleetwood Mac lead singer Stevie Nicks may not have inspired The Eagles’ “Witchy Woman,” but she definitely embodies the vibe. Her shaggy haircut is an ’80s version of the wolf cut (a grown-out mullet). Best known as the original Daisy Duke on the television show The Dukes of Hazzard, Catherine Bach flaunted these '70s barrel curls both off and on the silver screen. "Strong bobs are about to be all over the place," says Robinson. "This bold hair is graphic, blunt, and geometric. It shows up and doesn’t wisp away into nothing." She says this is an especially great cut for people with fine hair.
Bob with Bangs
“Use a flat iron and a strong-hold hairspray to lock that look in place.” We recommend the L'Oréal Paris Elnett Satin Extra Strong Hold Hair Spray and Bumble and Bumble Bb. Strong Finish Firm Hold Hairspray — both will keep your hair looking freshly styled for hours. For a tousled look, McLaren, co-founder of R+Co, recommends using a strong hold gel like the R+Co Motorcycle Flexible Gel. We love the Harry’s Sculpting Gel and American Crew Styling Gel for a lived-in look (without any flaky crunch). The classic mullet was a hairstyle staple for every '80s heartthrob — and it has, perhaps surprisingly, withstood the test of time. Cosmetic chemist Krupa Koestline says it’s true that today's products are much less harsh than they were in the ‘80s.
Dramatic Bangs: Taylor Swift
"Brush it through the hair and hold the curls briefly. When you finish the whole head, flip it upside down and brush through the curls with a paddle brush." Lily’s short, sleek cut is a modern take on the sophisticated bobs of the ‘80s. Celebrity stylist Justin Toves-Vincilione, advocate of Authentic Beauty Concept, says her layers live mainly around her face and are sculpted into a long curtain effect. "You'll want to ask for longer curtain bangs that go from short to long right at the top of your cheekbones."
The Most Iconic '80s Hairstyles (& Our Damage-Free Tips To Get Them Yourself)
These are the ultimate hair accessories that can totally transform a look. Barrettes and clips were a fad in the ’80s and they still are to this day. You can use bow barrettes, or barrettes that feature other embellishments such as pearls and jewels. Use these to hold your hair in place with the half up half down style or put one in while you have a ponytail or braid. Soap operas were also mostly to blame, because it seemed that every actress in those shows had big hair. We’re not talking about daytime soaps, but real cultural shows like Dallas and Falcon Crest.
Wolf Cut
Wendy already has naturally blond, naturally curly hair, but we felt its shape and color needed to be evened out a bit. We decided to give Whitney’s very curly hair (“Before” pic, below) a sleeker shape and — for fun — a touch of color. We used a liquid styling glaze for light control (Dep, The Hair Manager), then combed her hair back and up on each side, securing it with bobby pins. Hair sculpting is one of the most up-to-the-minute — and fun — styling methods around. This simple technique is perfect for giving your hair more body and bounce or for changing styles at a moment’s notice.

Big Waves
The possibilities are endless with a pixie cut, as you can rock it with bangs, waves, faux hawks – or switch it up with an underut pixie. Popular hairstyles of the 1980s included permed curls, crimped styles, soft cuts, feathered waves (think Farrah Fawcett), and most importantly, teased roots. In the 1970s, pin-straight strands parted perfectly down the middle was the “it” way to wear your hair, but once the year 1980 came around, attitudes towards hair changed.

To emulate an '80s look, it's best to tease hair that's already curly or wavy, but this can work on straight hair, too. The '80s were a time of dramatic self-expression with a strong youth culture that embraced rebellion against traditional norms and the more natural hippie look of the late '60s and '70s. This was an age where the artificial was embraced, and crimped locks, in particular, were a way for the younger generation to break free from more conservative hairstyles and express creativity. Pop stars such as Cyndi Lauper and Paula Abdul embraced funky crimped hair as part of their eclectic style. Hair is also more vulnerable to breakage when your ponytail is placed in the same place for a long time, day after day.
A Guide for Planning Your Wedding Hairstyle Ideas
Careful consideration and proper haircare practices will help you get an '80s-era mullet without causing significant hair damage. Embrace your hair's natural texture whenever possible and minimize the use of heat-styling tools to prevent excessive dryness and breakage. Keeping the hair trimmed can prevent split ends and keep hair looking healthy and vibrant. Sadly, this hairstyle comes at a risk, as exposing hair to any heat styling tool exposes you to the cruel consequences of broken, frizzy, and dead hair. To reduce damage, start by preparing your hair for heat styling with a moisturizing conditioner to maintain hydration. Next, protect your hair with a heat-protectant spray to prevent damage and create a barrier between your hair and the heat.
To minimize damage, rotate hairstyles and where you're placing your ponytail to prevent stress on specific areas of the hair. Don’t assume you need to actually get a perm to achieve this look. Use a small barrel curling iron for all-over corkscrew curls, or use heatless hair curlers sized for corkscrew or spiral curls. If you happen to have naturally curly hair — your time has come. Curly hair products can help you achieve this totally '80s look.
It’s easy to add some wave — and color pizzazz — to straight hair like Cynthia’s. To start, we wet Cynthia’s hair and combed a styling gel through it (we tried Clinique Crystal Clear Gel). Using a small brush, we crimped her hair into soft waves and blew it dry. We couldn’t talk about our favorite curly ‘80s hairstyles without highlighting Jheri curls. Known as one of the most popular hairstyles for textured hair, Jheri curls are a wavy hairstyle that uses a chemical treatment to give hair a looser curl pattern. It's an excellent alternative for those looking to improve the manageability of their curls, and it makes for a gorgeous, voluminous style.
Barbra Streisand’s brushed-back blowout at the start of the decade is decidedly old-school. You’ll need curlers (and lots of hairspray) to recreate the look at home. Thanks to modern hair care products, we can achieve those big and bold '80s styles without absolutely frying or drying our hair. "Today’s products aren’t as damaging as the alcohol-based products in the '80s," adds Howard McLaren, a hairstylist and co-founder of R+Co hair care.
Zendaya can pull off literally any style, but here she shows us that the mullet isn't dead after all. Warm highlights, longer bangs, and chic suiting breathe life back into this style. Sophie Ross has covered beauty and fashion for more than five years.
