Holding hair back other ways
Posted by Doomlord on December 08, 2003 at 00:48:37: Previous Next
Hey, how exactly do people get there hair to stay rolled up using 2 pencils or sticks etc.? also Ive seen men and women roll there hair up and keep it that way just using an ordinary hair tie, how is that done? Just wondering cuz Im starting to get bored of just loosely tieing a ponytail, and Id like to be able to do something besides braiding. thx.

This doesn't answer your question I know but just out of curiousity
how often do you tie your hair and how often do you just leave it
down? If I had hair as cool as yours it would probably be down a lot.
Except of course when it is safer to have it tied.
IMHO your hair ranks right up there with some of the best I've seen.

wow, thanks, yeah actually I try to keep it down as much as possible because otherwise it really gets in the way. in the past when Ive let my hair get long I would never tie it back just cuz I thought it looked weird, but this time around I had a job where they required me to tie it back and since I didnt want to cut it, I went ahead and did it, I got used to it though, but after doing that a while Id like to try other methods.

Once I saw a girl rol her hair up in a bun somehow, didn't put anything in there to hold it, and it just stayed there. I was completly baffled. I would also love to know how you girls do these things.
Personally I use a tiny little hair clip, and it works great. I somehow wrap my hair around itself then hold it in place with the clip. It's really hard to explain, but I like it a whole lot more than a regular pony tail. I don't get any of that tension I feel from the weight that I get with pony tail ties. Plus the hair is a whole lot more free since I'm only cliping down the part I need to keep out of my eyes. Sorry but it might be a while till I get some pics. I am at the mercy of my friend with the digital camera.

I twist my hair tight and wind it up in a bun like shape and tuck it in some of the hair that is already tight. it stays like that till it starts getting loose and then I do it all over again :)

Here you go Doomlord, bun instructions with pictures. A lower down bun might be easier to start with and it gets to rest on your neck so there is less pulling on the hairs holding it.
As for the other style, I am not sure what they are doing to hold it up with just the hair tie but keep an eye out for someone playing with their hair. Eventually you are bound to see somebody fiddling with their hair in public and watch to see what they do to keep it up.
