The iconic perm is now a thing thanks to 80s hair heroes Cher, Jon Bon Jovi and erm Deirdre Barlow.

Just like flares and suede, perms are an hair trend that yo-yo in and out of fashion without a care in the world. While curls circa 2016 could be seen as a tad more sophisticated (see model Steffy Argelich) let's not forget the greatest time of all for the perm - be it at home with spongy curlers and ammonia (popular choice) or a fancy glam rock job in the hairdressers - the 80s ruled the (hair) waves. We celebrate this golden age of BIG hair with our favourite famous curls-fans.

As Ron Burgundy said: 'Hey gang, what would make this great day even better? Perms for everyone!'.
