Share your '80s fashion sense and some details of your personality with us, and we'll sure we'll be able to tell which hairstyle you rocked back when Madonna was blasting out of your Walkman. The simplest details about your haircare habits, and your '80s knowledge will go a long way to letting us know how many hours you spent looking in the mirror dreaming about Kirk Cameron while getting ready to go out with your friends.
