Our jaws hit the floor after we saw Penny Mcnamee rocking this sultry 80s inspired hairstyle, and we think it’s time teased hair and perms made a comeback.

Penny served her 80s throwback look in a sizzling picture she posted to Instagram from the Home and Away dressing room.

She is totally feeling herself as she struck a confident and sensual pose with her curled, teased and ruffled blonde hair billowing around her face.

We are obsessed!

We also love her smoky brown eyeshadow, burgundy matte lipstick and red blush makeup look that amped up the already captivating makeover.

Clearly, Penny was just as enamoured with her hairdresser’s work as we are, and in her caption she mused that she is from the wrong era.

“My hair is wasted on this decade. #80sbaby,” wrote Penny.

Penny’s fans filled the post’s comment section with high praise as they lusted over her nostalgic hairstyle.

One fan gushed, “YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL ❤️,” while another commenter thought the look was a callback to Oliva Newton’s iconic hair in the movie Grease, “Very Sandra Dee 🔥.”

Some fans were speculating that the glamorous look was for filming a Home and Away wedding that has been teased on the soapy’s Instagram.

“Wow….gorgeous…Is that for the big wedding???❤,” speculated a follower.

The tip that Penny’s look was created for an exciting Home and Away storyline came from her co-star Emily Symons Instagram.

Emily posted a picture of her with Ada Nicodemou in honour of Ada’s recent birthday in a suspicious filing location, looking dolled up for a special occasion.

Time will tell why Penny was throwing it back to the 80s, but we are grateful to have been blessed with the vintage hairstyle for now.

Are Emily and Ada teasing a Home and Away wedding?

Luckily the loose and messy waves can be easily replicated at home with styling products and a blow dryer.
