    TE ponytail = Kenzie Hairbands

    I believe LBTC is referring to Kenzie headgear, found here

    They are made from a fabric-covered neoprene material and are designed to hold hair in place during high-movement physical activities like soccer, volleyball, etc.

    Longer, longer, longer...

    Having only brothers until I was 13, my Mum made things easy and we all had short hair, so as soon as I got a chance to grow it, it GREW! I've had long hair since and I always either braid it, french braid or go for two looped braids (I prefer this as I haven't got the weight on the back of my neck, I have thick hair from my Dutch father). I've been thinking about cutting it....but it's still just a thought....though reading this prompts me to leave it as I find hair in my face very annoying! I'd imagine a simple lycra headband would often do the trick to easy control though?

    Curls

    I know this is no help at all, but I've got VERY curly hair. I leave it at, or a little past, my shoulders. (Much longer when wet) Short hair = Bozo the clown. Boy short hair = Q-tip head. Both looks are to be avoided.
    Good news, curly hair is all interlocked together. So I put my helmet on, push everything towards the back and I never hear from it or see it again. People always know its me. I always hear "was that you riding on such and such road yesterday? I saw a helmet and a lot of curly hair sticking out" Yeah. It's always me.

    short gal, short hair. till my college days loooooooong ago it was long, down to my waist.

    it's at my shoulders now and I can't wait to see my styleist and get it cut short. I sweat a LOT so I wear a headband but that's just to keep the sweat out of my eyes.

    I have had my hair all different ways, except for real long - to my bra was the longest a couple of years ago. I have "lovely" almost curly hair, which is mostly frizzy during the summer months, I have always had bangs and I finally have let them grow out and can put them behind my ears now, I wear hats a LOT during the summer months and like to take them off and let my head cool off and with bangs it was impossible. B/c of the curl I can't do short I would have an afro type thing going on and b/c I have a lot of hair too long is miserably hot, so I keep it shoulder length maybe a little longer this summer and pull it back in a ponytail, I have a headband like you would use when you apply makeup etc to keep the hair out of your face, I wear that under my helmet it is very thin and it keeps the wisps out of my face and doesn't look bad when I take the helmet off, and in the winter I can wear it over my ears and keep them warm!

    I would love boy short but when its short it is more work for me. I wore it that way almost all the way through school. Plus b/f doesn't like it that short, he likes long, but I told him when he gets up in the morning and washes it and blow dries it then it can grow
