Going through old photos at my parent’s house, I came across this photo of me leaving for the prom nearly twenty years ago. I think I’m grimmacing because my mom is embarassing me by taking so many dang pictures – when really, all I wanted to do was leave and drink punch at the classy hotel ballroom with the rest of the big-haired people.
I remember it taking me HOURS and HOURS and HOURS to get my hair this perfect. Seriously. I look at it now and it seems I should be grimmacing because a spastic cat has crawled into my scalp and died.

Oh.My.God.
I would say more, but I’ve been blinded by your hair.
I had hair like that once. And…if looks could kill. Yikes.
Am I the only one that notices your hair is the only thing that’s changed? You still look like you did 20 years ago! No fair.
Suz,
I so love the hair! It brings back memories of how long it took to get that perfect ratty hair. I miss the 80′s so much!
OMG! That hair is like totally awesome! You are like totally Hot!
So who was your date? The dress is hawt. Did Farrah Fawcett give you a consult on that do?
Susan, I am SO guilty of having that big of hair. You definitely brought back BAD memories. Very nastogic!!
ditto Ann. you still look that age. in fact i thought you just back-combed for a few hours this morning then had someone take your picture to fool us…
HOT!
i believe it on the hair. I can’t give volume to my hair worth beans.. let alone curls..
Ha! I had the same hair only mine may have been bigger and of course black LOL
I LOVE IT. That? Is some rock-star awesome hair.
There MUST be more where this came from… may we have a few more prom photos, pleeease !!!

Hee, hee. I love it!
wow. i ditto anne’s comment. also, the words young and lythe spring to mind.
Well at least you only went to prom with that hair, I got married with it.
Wanna see my wedding photos? Me and the six ski-slope-bangs bridesmaids?
Love it! How many cnas of Aqua Net did you have to use to keep it looking that “perfect”.
Oh, this is the Suzie I remember from High School!! I actually found a picture recently of the 2 of us at my parents house (I think it was 9th grade) we were all dressed up with big hair and I think we were going to the turn-about dance – how FUNNY!!!
Lucky you, at least you had a date. A single geek I was then. Did that hairstyle have a name? I’ll call it The Funky!
LOL! Fabulous picture. I had hair that big once upon a time…hell, it was Texas afterall!
you’re helen hunt meets st. elmo’s fire.
I’m glad I was only a child in the 80s.
You’ve always been you, huh? Love it- that picture is soooo you. Classic!
Truly magnificent. Very bershon.
The wife’s hair was just like that! We didn’t know each other in ’85 but I’ve seen pictures. hehe!
I had hair like that once but I wasn’t going to the prom. I was having my first kid. I had a perm. Oh man… I can’t believe you reminded me of that. The 80s…. mmmmmmmmmmmmm……………
You haven’t changed much Susan. I heard a rumour that curls are the next big thing.
I think you went to my prom.
Just tell me one thing…was there a mix tape in the cassette player with some whitesnake and bon jovi on it?
so cute. a definite foreshadowing of the woman to come…
I had that hair too. I’m so glad I don’t get perms anymore!
Never had the big hair…but was sure jealous of girls like you who did! Wow!
Hey, 20 yrs ago all the cool chicks had hair like that. And all the guys wanted to look like WHAM. I think. Or was that just me?
OH MY GOD!! I used to have the exact same hair, and yes, it took hours to perfect and I thought I was da bomb! TOO FUNNY!
