I guess the 50's and 60's were the brylcreme era and the 80's was the gel/mousse era. It was much bigger news in the 80's. I remember the TV advertisements for Vidal Sasoon and such.

yeah I too used to start with a baseball size wad of mouse, spike my hair back like a dirty used car salesman, then spray a healthy cloud of hairspray on top of that.

Man I hated it when someone touched my hair and made it fluffy instead of 'wet'.

Sometimes I wish I could still do my hair like that. But I would just feel way too retarded.

So you're saying hair gel challenges your personal growth, mentally, emotionally and physically!!

Mousse! Lots of it! If you used the right stuff, you could have the slick look, and then brush it out you had the blown look.

I was in a small band for awhile and used TONS of hairspray...

Mousse was great for a while, but the smell made me nauseous and maybe it contributed to the whole in the ozone.....
