Oh, honey, you wanna know about that Farrah Fawcett hair? That was the stuff, I tell ya. Back in my day, everyone wanted that hair. Big and bouncy, like a cloud or somethin’. Now, you listen to me, I’ll tell ya what I know about gettin’ that look.

First off, that Farrah, she had layers. Lots and lots of ’em. Like a stack of pancakes, but prettier. That’s how you get that volume, see? You gotta have the right cut. They called it a “shag” back then. Don’t ask me why, sounded silly to me, but that’s what it was. Shag, shag, shag, everyone saying “shag”.

  • Get them layers: You tell your barber you want layers, like Farrah. Short ones on top, gettin’ longer as they go down.
  • Gotta have the right tools: You need one of them round brushes, the big kind. And a blow dryer, of course.
  • Spray it good: You gotta spray your hair first. Some water and that heat stuff. Protectant they call it, don’t get burned.

Now, you get that top part of your hair, clip it up out of the way. Like you’re makin’ a little bun on top, but don’t tie it up, just clip it. Then, you take that round brush and you start blow dryin’. You roll that hair around the brush, get it good and hot. Then, and this is important, you gotta twist it up. Roll it, then twist, like you’re curlin’ it, but not too tight.

And her bangs, oh, those Farrah Fawcett bangs! They were somethin’ else. Kinda swooped to the side, like curtains. They call ’em “curtain bangs” now. You gotta do the same thing with them, roll ’em up with the brush, but maybe use a smaller one for the front. That was a special trick, you know. Smaller roller, I heard.

You keep doin’ that, section by section. Split the top half in two, do the back part first, work your way to the front. Then do the sides like curtains. Lots of work, I know, but you want that Farrah Fawcett look, you gotta put in the effort. That’s what I always say, no pain, no gain.

Now some girls, they used a straightener, one of them flat irons. They’d curl the ends out with that, after blow dryin’. I never did that, my hair was already wild enough. But if your hair’s kinda flat, you might try that. Just be careful, don’t burn yourself. You curl it outwards, away from your face. Like a flip at the end, that’s the 70s hair flip I heard young girls call it today.

And don’t forget the hairspray! Lots and lots of hairspray. Gotta keep it all in place, you know? Like cement, but for your hair. And you can brush it out a little, make it look a little softer. Some folks, they wet the brush and brush it under. I don’t know about that, seems messy. But you do what works for you, honey.

You can also use your hands, kinda scrunch it up, shape it around your face. That takes practice, though. Gotta get the feel for it. That’s how you get the right shape. It’s all about the shape with Farrah Fawcett’s hairstyle. That is the key, I heard some young people say.

That Farrah, she was a pretty lady. And her hair, well, it was famous. Everyone wanted it. Still do, I guess. You see girls today, tryin’ to get that same look. They watch those videos, you know, on the TikTok. Some guy named Justin, showing how to cut it just so. They call it the “Farrah Fawcett haircut” and “The Farrah Fawcett style”. Times change, but some things, they just stay the same.

It ain’t easy, gettin’ that Farrah Fawcett hair. Takes time, takes practice. But if you really want it, you can do it. Just remember what I told ya. Layers, round brush, blow dryer, hairspray. And a whole lotta patience. You’ll get there, honey. You’ll get there.

But even if you don’t, it don’t matter. You just be you, that’s the most important thing. Farrah was Farrah, and you’re you. And that’s just fine. You got your own kinda beauty, and that’s what matters. Don’t you ever forget that. Just take care of yourself and be happy, that is the most important thing I can tell you, honey.
