LYNNWOOD — Being referred to years ago as the city with big-haired women who go crazy with blue eye shadow still lingers in the minds of Lynnwood residents, some of whom work at City Hall.
They remember how the Seattle TV comedy show “Almost Live” spoofed Lynnwood in the 1990s by depicting locals as big-haired buffoons.
One particular 2-minute and 42-second segment about a fictional Lynnwood hair salon gave the city’s image a black eye — or at least a dark one — referring to a certain type of eye shadow as “Lynnwood Blue.”
