Help. I look like I'm on TV AM in the 80's

I don't know how it's happened but since cutting my hair a few years ago I look like Anne Diamond. No matter what cut I get it reverts back to Anne Diamond

Do I buy some natty knitwear and embrace it? or do you have any suggestions for fine, short hair to look a bit more 21st century and less 1980's mum

Ta !

Embrace it! Just dont forget the shoulder pads!😄

The 80s are back! I’ve seen loads of blokes with moustaches and mullets recently. You’re ahead of the curve with your Anne Diamond do.

The 80s are back for kids who have no idea who the frig Anne Diamond is. Not for those of us who remember it all first time round .

Get your hair chopped v short.; Anne was never brave enough for a pixie cut.

Could be worse OP.

Anne Diamond, bit of a babe...
You could have the David Frost do..

'No matter what cut I get it reverts back to Anne Diamond'
Sorry OP, not helpful but I can't stop laughing at your predicament!
Could you stop cutting it for a while? Just deal with it growing out until you get some length back then have it trimmed by a hairdresser who doesn't specialise in 'Anne Diamond Circa 1980'?

Go full 80's.
Heather shimmer lipstick
Sun in to highlight your hair. (Backcombed of course).

I also say embrace it OP, nothing wrong with that style in the photo above

Ironically.. I'd have loved an Anne Diamond look in the 80's. My mum permed my hair and only knew 1 method so i looked like Hyacinth Bouquet in a school uniform. 😂May need to rethink my username !
