Iconic 80s Hairstyles You Can Try Virtually

The decade of volume

If one thing sums up 1980s style, it is hair: bigger, curlier, higher and held in place with a lot of hairspray. Trying these looks in real life takes hours and a salon visit. With an AI 1980s photo generator you can see yourself with them in a minute.

Six hairstyles that define the 80s

Each of these appears across Novaali styles:

• Teased volume: the signature of glamour shots, backcombed at the crown and set with spray.
• The perm: tight or loose curls for everyone, from yearbooks to family albums.
• The mullet: business in the front, party in the back. Common in instant snapshots and rock photos.
• Feathered layers: soft, swept-back layers, perfect for yearbook portraits.
• Side ponytail with scrunchie: playful and very mid-80s, great with aerobics and beach looks.
• Big rock hair: long, layered and wild, found in our Rock Legend style.

Getting the best hair result

Your current hairstyle does not need to match. Short hair can become a perm and long hair can become a mullet. For best results, upload a photo where your hairline is visible and not covered by a hat.
