The comb was used on the highly feathered hair.

Roach clips with the feathers we'd clip to our hair.
Oh, I LOVED those...I had one with blue feathers I totally wore out.
Also, I had yellow and orange shag carpet in my bedroom. With green walls.
I got to pick the colors out myself!
Oh, and I could disco like John Travolta, but honestly, I got most of my moves off of Sooouuuuul Train!
