There's a fad among Italian youffs, for gelling their hair, which is cut quite short, into a kind of mohawk along the middle of their skulls. They also wear sunglasses all the time and wear quite tight clothing. For a long time I couldn't figure out what this combination reminded me of. Then one day it came to me: Sleestak.

Sadly, not just Italian youths. Been happening here for about two years or so. It's called a "faux-hawk".
It's like they're trying to make 80's fashion look good...
Hey, 80s fashion totally did look good.
At least, I looked good. I was into the big-hair/brocade-shirt-buttoned-up-to-the-neck-with-a-Victorian-pin/big jangly earrings and skinny pants look.
I think we called it the "New Romantic" look.
You just keep telling yourself, that, Hilary...
In the 80's, I had a mullet, pegged my jeans, and had a denim jacket full of patches for hair-metal bands like Dokken and Whitesnake. My mother-in-law wonders why I won't let her see my old photos...
Don't forget the bloomers-as-pants! - Karen
