Sunday, May 14, 2006 Fashion Punk Flash back from the 80's to the 90's

me in tustin 1985

for some reason in 1986 all the peace punks started to crimp their hair.  So i said what the hell - bought a crimping iron and just did it.  Not sure what year this was but it was in the 80's..

this is edy and frank in 1994.,  pacthes started to become really popular at that time.  these were protest patches mostly animal liberation and anti racism ...

i think this is from 1995 thats angel from a//political and me. he used a soap and water to charge up his hair and he did this in the parking lot.  you get soap and and little bit of water and just keep rubbing em until you make a thick paste - then you put it on your hair starting from your roots till the end of the tip.  i had to use a blow dryer cos my hair was too long. i used oat meal soap (no hair sprays)

thats me spiking up chris hair in 1991.   use a cruelty free oat meal soap you can get them from the health food store - you dont really need a blow dryer cos they are thick and heavy.

brian and rick 1989  ( i did brians hair with soap and blow dryer - took about 40 minutes)

this is me in 1999-theirs no way you can use a soap when your hair is this long. so i used a 'freeze it' hair spray (cruelty free not tested on animals - comes in yellow can) and a blow dryer.  spray your hair starting from the roots and start pulling it up.  use enough spays so  the spike is wet - then blow dry!

this is tammy (time to unite fanzine) in 1988.   this hair style is called fake dreads.  get a soap and spike it down and later on it will get all dried..

Tammy again - hair style by J.Lee

this is from 1994 or 95 from l-r: edy, chauch,me, frank and dave.. this is the lazy punk fashion.  just wear a band t-shirt - if you have short hair just wear a hat -

199? in Long beach

i think this is from early 99 - the glam punk look:  you get a brush and just tease up your hair...

thats me in halloween - stephanie did the make up and i'm just doing the hair...

a//political rules! I really enjoyed reading this...... Why do you think people tone down later on with the punk look? I have to admit I did. My hair is currently all green .. and I usually wear band shirts.. and I love the music!!!! But yea.. Mmm. I guess I didn't tone that much down Posted by Zits Are beauty Marks:) on Sunday, May 14, 2006 at 11:21 PM

I remember one time you were trying to tease out my hair you fucked up it, i ended up looking like rober smith from the cure. Basterd! Posted by Shäwn Smäsh on Monday, May 15, 2006 at 11:21 AM

Ha, my hairs startin to get longer now - it takes me about an hour to spike after i washed it and 30 minute most days 'cause its still got soap in.... Vegan soap thats against animal testing! Posted by Rich on Monday, May 15, 2006 at 5:04 AM
