I know, Throwback Thursday has been around for a long while now.  Probably a bit too long, and we all kind of put up with it.  But the one thing I always notice from the second a pic is posted is the huge chorus of Vidal Sassoons and Paul Mitchells  chiming in with, "OMG that hair!"  Or  "Those bangs, nice mullett, or what's up with your hair?"  and the LOL's are flying around like planes over O'Hare.  And being fair, it's apt.  It's about all anyone really says.

But Throwback Thursday has taught me over the years there are two things to keep in mind.  One is, yes the hair was awful. I mean look at this pic from me from the 4th grade.  What hedge-trimming, machete-wielding, pinking shear-throwing sadist did that to me? Truth be told, it was probably my mom with some razor blade contraption from the Revco.  But things are different today, as many parents put a lot of money into their own hair, or thier kids hair too.  And that's fine, everyone is looking good!  Until you don't.....

The second thing to remember is this. The hair you're wearing right this minute as you read this, will be laughed at hard in Throwback Thursdays up the road.  The clothes too.  We all think we are the height of fashion, until one day we are not, and today's hair style is the thing of a good laugh from others and probably you too, in the years ahead.

But right now, we are looking good!  Real good!
