  • Hair Crimper

    Along with wearing lace fingerless gloves, hair crimping was essential practise among teenage girls and even grown women (Madonna and Cyndi Lauper for example) in the 80s. Basically, using a pair of crimpers connected to the main, you clamped sections of hair in between two hot metal (nowadays ceramic) plates for a few seconds. After releasing the plates, this section of hair would be totally transformed in a zig-zag effect. No one knew back in the 80s just how much damage crimping did to your hair, though! These days, crimpers only come out for 80s fancy-dress nights out - most prefer to straighten their hair or curl it, both in much the same manner as crimping.
