"Remember when Carrie and Berger almost broke up over a scrunchie reference in his novel during an episode of Sex and the City? I sure as hell do, because even though I haven&amp;#x27;t worn them for many years, scrunchies made a definite impact on my beauty routine during the formative years. How about you? Let&amp;#x27;s start this post by stating, quite clearly, that this is a no-judgment zone. I not only wore my weight in scrunchies, I had an entire dresser drawer devoted to their safekeeping. What a genius way to hold your hair back without getting it snarled around an annoying elastic! What a stroke of matchy-matchy genius, for a girl obsessed with Wigwam socks and Champion sweatshirts to have just one more thing on her person that also happened to be salmon pink. The possibilities were endless. And now that the 80s have come back full force (Want proof? Acid wash jeans. Puffy sleeves. Shoulder pads. Neon. I rest my case), the next logical step is the return of the good old fashioned scrunchie. American Apparel, the soothsayers of all things retro-kitsch, has decided they deserve another moment in the spotlight. As with all things American Apparel, anything goes, as long as your tongue is planted firmly in your cheek. They come in two packs, they cost six dollars, and they&amp;#x27;re available in every form from fluorescent green to zebra print. Time to talk hair accessories, dolls: Are you all aghast? Secretly excited to bust out your old stash? Or wishing nobody but your boyfriend would see you in one of these while you&amp;#x27;re washing your face? Do you think the 80s revival has gone too far this time, or just far enough? DISCUSS. Are you ready for the return of the scrunchie?(surveys) Add glamour.com to your Google homepage Follow Slaves to Fashion on Twitter!
