Also from the 80's, there was a lovely young gal from LA that traveled to various churches and did hair styling demonstrations.
I and several other ladies drove in a van 300+ miles to attend one of these sessions. It was fun. I volunteered to be a model. There were other churches that also drove to be part of this.
Nothing wrong with ladies getting together and having a good time.
There was a Friday night session and a Sat morning session.
But it seems sad that we would need to devote that much effort on our hair.
Maybe we could put that focus and energy into something with real importance!!
