90s Goth Bangs

So while reading N. Finsternis's post on her favorite 90s fashion inspiration, I saw this picture of Lydia from Beetlejuice, and was thinking of 90s trends that didn't quite make it over to the current nugoth/90s rivival/soft grunge whatever. Namely, the super-duper gelled bangs:


Does anyone else remember doing this? I do.

Sorry...I couldn't find my photo album to share with you my glorious bangs. I was a huge fan of this. I mostly wore them like this Vampire: The Masquerade gangrel:
my god, v:tm is the most 90s thing ever

Here's another way I remember wearing em...like Talon from the Crow TV series. messy, over your face, making your acne worse


This was every goth guy in high school:


And then there was the two-strand gel things, which was my first goth hairstyle:

Stayed in place all day like you're a still from JTHM

I can kinda see how this trend didn't get revived.  but maybe when people get tired of the natural hair thing and bust out the gel again.
