I was on a visit to london a few years ago, actually it was my last visit. I was in a store and saw this. I would like to have had a better photo but did not want to get into difficulties if someone saw me. I also used to wear such instruments when I was younger for a modern hairstyle, but I must admit I did not wear them for everyone to see, but only at home.

Perfect capture of those little critters (forgot their names) in the background also with their thoughts on it.

I also forgot their name (minion), otherwise I would have mentioned them. They seemed to be laughing as well

Rollers! Oh my–and I remember when they came out with foam hair rollers so you could sleep in them! Gosh, we were a pretty stylin’ bunch, weren’t we? 😆

I love this photo. I remember wearing rollers — I think that ended for me in the 80s… Or sooner?

I was already finished with them in the sixties

I used heated rollers. I remember throwing them out in 1988.

In the sixties we were all walking around with balloons on our heads, the so-called bouffant hair sryles with the accompanying back combing

Wow. Talk about ancient memories! I think I must have been in my early teens the last time I used rollers. I think that’s why I still wear my hair long. Every day is a good hair day and I never worry about rollers — or not getting a haircut.

Certainly does bring back memories, especially for us golden oldies. I am gradually growing my hair. Lock down made it possible, but I am not there yet.

When women wore rollers to the shops, they used to wear a scarf over them at least. Sometimes you need that last minute purchase for that big night out. Love it Pat, brings back memories of my Mum. Thanks for joining in 🙂 🙂

I must admit as a teenager inkjet all the tricks with the scarf as well. 😃
