For most of the world, getting through the '80s was a bumpy ride, and the '90s weren't much better until later on. Kids, or their insane parents, did the most regrettable things with their hair, and these school photos are most likely not something they look back on even a little bit fondly. In fact, we're pretty sure all of these hairstyles are now illegal.

If you or your kid's hairstyle was also straight up trippin' back in the day, we want to see it. Add it to our list below, then vote for the ones that made you the most glad we now live in 2017.

Am I the only one that thinks that this one (apart from the dad) is actually good?

Last time I saw her she was in Narnia starring alongside a witch and a wardrobe.

The higher the hair, the closer to God! If you're going to have a mullet, you should have a super mullet.

Crazy.. So many of this kids don't look like real kids, but like miniature grown-ups. Definitely not the hairstyle of a little kid..

In Germany this is called "vokuhila" short for "vorne kurz hinten lang" which means "front short back long" we are efficient but not funny... ^^

Of all the hair styles, this is probably the most conventional, from what I can see.

I remember wanting a mullet in the 80's. It was one of the few fashion choices my mom ever put her foot down on . She said, with the most sincerest of wisdom, "NO F*CKING WAY ARE YOU GETTING THAT STUPID HAIRCUT". Thanks, Mom, you were right!!!

Funny thing is, this kid was probably the "coolest dude" in school back then.

I haven't seen evidence of not knowing how to crop a photo for about 10 years!

This one isn't bad at all. Definitely 80's style but well executed.

I was wondering why I saw this style on kids in the 70's and 80's and it was out of place with the big hair and mullets. This would have been the generation of the parents of those kids. Makes sense.

I'm not saying they didn't put a bowl on your head but this is not a classic bowl cut. Bowl cuts go straight around nearly parallel to the ground. This actually tapers nicely. It's rather cute.
