Aww, lovely J-Willy.

I like the name J-Willy Grin

He does have excellent hair. They missed out a few obvious ones IMHO.

PrivateIsles · 05/04/2019 17:58

I rest my case Grin

I was lost in a rabbit hole earlier, looking back at who was playing at Wimbledon in 1994, and the winners in the years that followed etc- and was reminded that Sampras beat Cedric Pioline in one final. (97?)

Now, he is a man who would not feature on 'best hair' lists nowadays- Grinbut at the time he had a lot of hair!Grin.

Private now that's how to do a ponytale/headband combo Grin

Raahh · 05/04/2019 18:04

(I think I used to wear my hair like that quite a lot in my teens - much curlier, though, and minus the hair band Grin).

Raahh · 05/04/2019 18:04

(I also sported a similar monobrow- i was a gawguss teenager).

Private I'm sorry, but that photo is wrong on so many levels Confused he's definitely got better with age!

JaneJeffer · 05/04/2019 18:35

Aha Raahh was a Brosette Grin

Raahh · 05/04/2019 18:37

See, I had naturally curly hair, which made mine rubbish- whereas my sister had a perm and everything, (and was a proper Brosette- Grolsch bottle tops and everything ).

I was trendy (hair wise) by accident. Grin, for 5 minutes.

JaneJeffer · 05/04/2019 18:39

When I moved to London at 19 I couldn't get over how it was teeming with Brosettes Grin

I wish I hadn't posted that photo of JW because I keep having impure thoughts about his beard now.

Grin Grolsch bottle tops - blast from the past!! I had a perm as a teenager and it was terrible - god knows why I wanted it (well because they were trendy, that was the reason, whether it suited or not!).

he's definitely got better with age
No doubt about it! A bit like Gary Lineker Grin

Raahh · 05/04/2019 18:47

Jane You need to dig out the Cosmo photo shoot ...

PrivateIsles · 05/04/2019 18:48

Yep I've just double checked and that's really quite a hot photo Jane Grin

I mean the JWT one, not the Delpo one, just to clarify Grin

Raahh · 05/04/2019 18:50

Private in my wisdom (and because my mum's step brother is a hair dresser) I had a perm , on top of my natural curls, the summer I was 16.

It was huge.

PrivateIsles · 05/04/2019 18:54

I'd forgotten about Cedric Pioline btw. He did have a lot of hair didn't he?!

JaneJeffer · 05/04/2019 18:57

I got a perm in the 80's too even though my hair curls naturally. What were we thinking? Grin

OP posts:
kazzaD66 · 05/04/2019 19:31

Cedric had very big hair and now it's all shaved off.......he looks the better for it, though Grin

kazzaD66 · 05/04/2019 19:33

I had a perm in the 80's aswell and midway into the 90's most people did, didn't they? HmmConfused
