watch out boy…
Why oh why can I not find an image of one of those chunky combs we used to stick in our Jordache back pockets???
I found tons of 80′s sites when I googled “80′s huge pocket combs” but I have found nothing. I really need one. It’s for Chapter 2 of “Do You Think He Likes Me?”
Any suggestions?

Two â The Accidental Mullet
Summer 1983
The night before I was to go to my grandparents’ trailer on Lake Erie, my mother surprised me with a new haircut. She chopped all my hair off, leaving me with the unfortunate hairstyle known as a mullet. I was traumatized. Katie looked great with a mullet because Katie was beautiful. But me? I thought it brought out my freckles and chubby cheeks even more. I cried myself to sleep that night.
I was determined not to let to let my bad haircut get in the way of my summer vacation. Katie came to visit for the weekend, and we went skating at the Gem Beach skating rink. As Hall & Oates’ “Maneater” blared from above, I found the courage to ask Joey, a fellow mullet head, to skate on “Ladies’ Choice”. Joey courted me that summer, boosting my self-esteem.
