Episode 9 Hair Chronicles

Описание: Stacy and Carol open the episode of “Start a List” by chatting about short hair preferences, comments they’ve received about haircuts, and funny childhood hair incidents, then introduce the topic: a list-style trip through memorable hairstyles and hair experiences. They reminisce about bangs gone wrong, parents cutting hair at home, and growing up in the 1980s when big hair, perms (Tony/Lilt), teasing, picks, and heavy hairspray (including White Rain and a hairspray-filled brush handle) were common, along with trends like “wings,” the Dorothy Hamill cut, Farrah Fawcett layers, Molly Ringwald’s bob, Faith Hill’s short cut, and “The Rachel.” They discuss early experiences with coloring hair, Sun-In, and at-home dye jobs, including Stacy’s accidental eggplant-purple hair that required salon bleaching, plus a failed at-home frosting/highlighting attempt that turned hair translucent white and then was dyed to tone it down. They talk about letting gray grow out during COVID to save money, note small changes like frizz and wiry hairs, and share hair facts (hair contains trace gold, grows about six inches a year, and may lose pigment about 13 days after a stressful event). The episode ends with more 80s styling memories, a story about a hair net flying out of a purse in high school, Stacy forgetting to remove her Publix hair net after work, and an invitation for listeners to share their own hair stories before they wrap up with the show’s catchphrase.
