The '80s bangs - I couldn't see where I was going and I looked like a demented poodle poodle, popular breed of dog probably originating in Germany but generally associated with France, where it has been raised for centuries. There are three varieties, differing in size only.  

I had a Szechuan-style haircut - I was the only person who thought it looked good, and no one had the heart to tell me it looked awful

In middle school I got a super short, millitary-style buzz cut; everyone called me G.I. Dave and the nickname stuck

This summer I tried to get it feathered but it ended up in a mullet mullet: see silversides.

In fourth grade, I decided it would be cute to cut it short; I looked like Las Vegas Las Vegas (läs vā`gəs), city (1990 pop. 258,295), seat of Clark co., S Nev.; inc. 1911.
