Glamour Shots was a concept where (usually) women would go to a photographic studio and have their makeup done, sometimes accompanied with feather boas and costume jewelry and have photos taken. That was big in the 90s as were one hour photo studios where you could have your picture taken (alone or with friends) and in roughly an hour you’d receive your photos. These were different from traditional portrait studios in that you could dress casually and have fun with the poses.

You know what you just unlock a semi core memory!!!!

Whereas my dad would not have listened to me my mom actually respected my wishes and the wood panel remained. 😊

The Sega Genesis was the underdog video game console. It secured 55% of the video games market at one point. The Sega Saturn was a flop outside of Japan 🇯🇵. It was released too early with a surprise launch which pissed off KB Toys so much that they refused to sell it ever since only stores like Toys R Us and Electronics Boutique, Babbage’s (later merged into GameStop). After about 3.5 years the Sega Saturn only sold about 9 million units. I do remember playing Daytona USA on Sega Saturn display kiosks at Toys R Us.

I grew up in New Zealand and remember many different interior design styles in the 90s. Definitely recall the sponge-ing and stencil, but also remember bold single-colour paint jobs, and that oh-so-necessary "feature wall" that was a pointedly different colour from the other walls in the room. Much Baroque and Tuscan influence, dried flowers, draped fabric, golds, deep reds, warm colours, lavender flowers, "deconstructed decadence", French rustic touches, and hardwood floors. I aspired to the more minimalist trend of off-white plasterboard, large tiled atriums, skylights, mezzanine floors, generous patios, and the newly-birthed realtor selling point: "indoor-outdoor flow". I was also fond of the style-blending and grunge-tingled aesthetic in graphic design, throwing mixed fonts and patterns at each other. Much fun.

I remember it all, we still have our VHS player and many tapes. We also still have our light oak entertainment center but the newer tv's won't fit, they are too big. Another video that I found very entertaining. Thanks again, Rhett for the blast from the past!

I was born in 1986. The 1990s was my 2nd decade ever. VHS player, CDs, entertainment centers, roller skating, the Internet, Chia Pets, Nintendo, Sega, PlayStation, Books, toys, board games, jigsaw puzzles, I liked the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Game Boy (original), the Super Nintendo, Game Boy Pocket, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Color, and Sega Genesis, but I didn’t get them later in life until 2002 and 2003 respectively, during the early 2000's. I have a VHS/DVD player combo, my Nintendo 64, Sega Genesis, and I don't have my NES and Super Nintendo yet in my house, but soon.

I was born in 1989, so, I did experience some of it!

Thank you for the memories 🥰

You're welcome and thank you for watching Monika!

1:25 FWIW, I've always thought (and still do), think that cargo pants are the bees knees. I like 'em.

Ah, Rollerblades. I could not keep my balance on them to save my life.

The more of these decade videos I watch, the more I realize the general public is at the mercy of fashion trends. How you cut your hair or how you are choosing what features to build into your new house is one thing that you control, but you don’t control what color your new refrigerator is, or what features your car has that used to be great, or whether your roller skates are two-by-twos. If an aspect or attribute of something is no longer popular, you won’t be able to buy it like that anymore. 😢

OMG Someone else who remembers Builders Square!!!

Sooo true! Unfortunately, i still have some of these in my home 😂😂

80s kid here. (I turned 9 in 1980). The 80s were more innovative and fun; everything just flowed perfectly, one after the other. The 90s were more experimental, awkward, and quick fads. I guess the best thing about the '90s was grunge music; other than that, It was just not as fun. Nothing will ever compare to the great 80s.🥰

i remember the halogen lights smoking when a bug would land in them

They were great bug killers but it sure did stink when that happened. Thank you for watching and sharing another memory I had forgotten about.

1990s! Good Times!

Our house was definitely 90s! Borders on the walls, white appliances, light oak cabinets and entartainment center! And our top of the line Sony Trinitron 27" tv and JVC VCR

I was born in 1982 and spent alot of my childhood and teen years in the 90s so i could relate so much to this video! Thank you so much for the memories! 💖✌😊🌈🌷🦋🎈🎉👍

Old Navy! Old Navy! Old Navy performance fleece! Does anyone else remember this jingle in their 90s winter commercial?

Thanks for the memories. I was in the Army during most of the 90s. 🪖 🇺🇸

Don’t forget the little mini water fountains everyone had on their mantle or shelf! But wow you really included a lot here. Hey , love this, I hope you do more 90’s, lifestyles, vehicles, clothes, fads, etc…

I hated the fringe craze, i love the look of oak, it is so beautiful to look at. We had a Dark Cherry Living Room.

I do remember a light cherry oak and a honey oak being popular at the time too. I don't remember seeing the dark cherry. I bet it looked nice though! Thank you for watching and sharing your memories Kirk!

Sunset maple representing, though our ancient (100+ years) house was renovated in the early 1960s. That honey oak rivals our wall panelling and kitchen cabinetry.

I grew up in the 90's.

Another thing I remember from the 90s. I don't know if it's just my region, the coffee shops it was a cool place to hang out. And eating bagels with rage in the 90s. I remember bagel shops in could go anywhere you would find different varieties. Keep up the great work! love and enjoy your continent. Brings back a lot of memories.

I lived in apartments in the 90s. Most of the furniture came from Ikea, because it was easy to take apart to move.

Oh man… the mention of halogen lamps gave me goosebumps. I remember being terrified of them since their hot bulbs were known for starting fires, which freaked me out,

Can you capture the current trends and do a 2020s video as if it were history??
