This. Whypeepo was at they drug crazed nastiness back then in that era and the gimmick was mad successful.
Now as a black man who's musical tastes includes a large portion of Rock and Metal, I'm sadly familiar with most all these hair spray damaging the ozone layer using, Sister Mascara stealing, wafer thin androgynous looking b*stards stayed eyeball deep in long back groupie trim like you wouldn't believe.
shyt I think Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue infamy were the ones who unabashedly made a bet to see who could get more chicks after not bathing for like a fukking month and stayed fukking off the strength of this whole Glam/Hair metal wave.

I was so fukking glad when Chris Cornell and Layne Stayley'n'em put a nail in these b*stards coffin with the Grunge movement and white people just looked/smelled nasty instead of being all that plus wild mango gay as well.
The musicianship was top tier tho, Word to Nuno Bettencourt and George Lynch.
