Fantastically accurate descriptions

Lucca. I have a short, graduated bob, but, bobs were mentioned as unsuitable, along with cauliflower cuts. I did ask tongue in cheek.

What does it matter how people choose to wear their hair as long as they are happy with it. I am NOT happy about the use of any of these derogatory terms.

With the greatest possible respect dawn, lighten up!!

Yes, my greengrocer always calls them 'cauliflower heads'!

I am not happy with my hair, it is thin and short styles do not suit. What do you called that patch (not bald -yet) at the top head which everyone can see when you are sitting down?

I could listen to Billy Connolly all day.
He has such a lovely way of telling his tales.

Georgesgran I think Billy Connolly also described these ladies as having 'Scone shoes' - the little comfy basketweave wide fitting footwear that scuttled into tea shops, taking their owner with them! That was such a funny sketch.

My hairdresser many years ago called the pensioners “ the blue rinse brigade “

Sorry autocorrect Grannee

Grande, I thought that read ‘a face like a melted WILLIE’.
My mind boggled ?

And then there is helmet hair

I’ve watched most of the Ever Decreasing Circles this last year, they regularly crop up on Dave or Gold, and I enjoyed them even more the second time around.
Good acting and dialogue and plots, both funny and touching.

I found a photo taken the only time I had a curly perm. It seemed to make me look older and fatter. I was 43 and a Weight Watchers leader. Now I am really older and my naturally curly hair has made a comeback.

I have heard of a bus driver who calls his older clientele the "Twirlies", because they're always trying to use their bus passes before 9, and ask "Am I too early"?

A local farmer here would say "a face like a melted wellie" ?

A late and very lamented. Geordie chum of mine used to refer to a grumpy person as "having a face like a pox doctor's clerk" which always made me laugh.
My favourite way of getting off to sleep is to snuggle down and say to myself "a warm bed on a winter's night". Works every time.
Howard and Hilda..Ever Decreasing Circles. I loved the flirty next door neighbour..was it Peter Egan? As ever, Richard Briers played a brilliant part. We all know someone like that.

I was a cauliflower head for 1 day in the early 70s. I went to pick up my young son from nursery school and he didn’t recognise me!. After walking round me in a circle and with me reassuring him that I was mummy he burst into tears. I had it taken out the following morning.

As I have a natural wave in my hair it had frizzed up . I had agreed with my hairdresser that he would take the perm out if I didn’t like it.

We used to call them (now us) 'Cottontops'

I once lost my temper at work and descibed a woman who I disliked as having a face like a smacked a**e.

My boss laughed so hard he fell off the chair.......

You can have a nice sharp bob Tweedle!

Oh, dear! I have always avoided a perm. I always had fine, straight hair but, lately it has developed a kink.

I am puzzled about what to do with my hair if I can’t have a bob or a perm. What is left, please? Currently, I blow-dry it to get rid of the waves.

Omg this thread is hilarious ?.

On another thread I described someone's facial expressions as being like a bulldog licking p*ss off a stinging nettle.
