Thinking back to my teenage years, I can remember a horrible hair cut that I was talked into as “perms were in style”. To my horrified teenage mind, this haircut was the “end of the world”. I was hoping to have a great hairstyle to fit in with all of my friends, and came out with a horrible, layered, curly mess. I cried for days. I remember refusing to go anywhere because “everyone would be looking at my horrible hair”. My mother, being the loving mother, attempted to console me and get me out of the house, but it really didn’t work too well. Of course this is a real life example of the imaginary audience that teenagers go through in which they think they are the focus of everyone else’s attention.
