Irish pop music duo Jedward are known for wearing their signature blond soft quiffs, which they described in a segment on The X Factor in 2009. Notable individuals with the style Popular figures with soft quiffs The Japanese Punch perm, a favorite among Yakuza (organized criminal) and Bōsōzoku (biker gang) members, bears a similarity to this hairstyle. The quiff became increasingly popular in the early 2010s with celebrities popularizing it. In the 2000s, pulling the fringe back into a quiff with a ponytail was a popular female hairstyle in some countries. The quiff saw a revival in the late 90s, due to the advent of the French crop, a modern version of the quiff, and continues through today. The hairstyle, although prominent in the 80s, faded into obscurity except among ardent 80s culture fans. It has been taken to the extreme and parodied by the Finnish band Leningrad Cowboys, and is their calling card. Probably the most famous example of the more prominent variety of the quiff is singer Morrissey. Mark Kermode, popular film critic and reviewer, is well known for having an 'impeccably-coiffured quiff'.

That “pops the quiff” – the quantum wave function – into the “prickly particles” we know as “reality.” So we have before us all possibilities, and we draw forth a particular possibility by focusing on it. ![]() ![]() That act of observation, or the influence of consciousness (as some argue), is what transforms possibility into reality. It seems these “quantum waves” remained in that state until someone took a measurement of them. Instead of being able to pinpoint the building blocks of life as microscopic “things” that are easy to understand and predict rather what scientists found were “waves of possibilities” also described as “vibrating energy packets.” Wolf explaining it (at 1:45 minutes in) to someone who gets this stuff about as well as I do, I think:Īlthough there is controversy among quantum physicists in extrapolating what we see on the quantum level to life on a bigger level, it fits in with what we deliberate creators have learned about manifesting our reality. Quiff short for “quantum wave function.” (QWF – get it?) Including his description of how our consciousness transforms quantum wave functions into the particles and atoms that make up physical reality as we know it. He presents challenging concepts in a down to earth, easy to grasp way.
