The Bubble
Wow, talk about a style that is not conducive for gymnastics. How do you flip and do giant swings or even run for that matter, whith this bubble-beehive on your head?
The Pigtails
This style also does not seem conducive for doing acrobatics -- don't ponytails on either side of your head get in the way? BUT, it's cute as a button, I'll give it that.
The Ribbon
Again, another cute look but that is fianlly practical. It's kind of the "all-business" look with a touch of flair.
The Boy Cut
It was the 80s, I guess women felt the need to be liberated from that long, ironed-straight hair from teh 70s, not to mention the ultimate practical hairdo for the sport.
BANGS
Oh, my goodness. Bangs came, and long overstayed their welcome. I mean, check this out. A decade of poofy bangs. The requisite hairstyle was ponytail, about 9 metal clips and the curled, poofy bangs in front. Curling irons were put to very good use.

Glitter and/or corn rows
Apparently, no one understood the concept of all things in moderation. People went insane with the glitter.
And meanwhile, it seemed like the Parkettes began experimenting with corn rows. Fortunately, this was short-lived.
Things were rather subdued from 2000 -2005. I think we were calming down from the many trends that were just wacko and thigns were very plain. A style began to develop in about 2007 though that was in reaction to the decade plus of bangs.
The bang poof
Just about every girl on the Beijing team did this. Finally, a happy medium.
