Can we just not and say we did? Like oh my God, perms are back. And if you're googling "what is perm" let me save you the time. Your mom and I were reallllly into them in the 80's. We tried so hard to make it look like the amazing Tori Kelly here, who has naturally curly hair.
In fact if I was going to get a perm (nope) I'd bring this picture and say THIS, give me the TORI!
Problem is for some of us our hair just don't go that way, no matter what chemicals you try, so we ended up looking like this. WHY why why did we feel the need to curl our bangs under too?
