Keeping-hair-out-of-face question

[velogirl]

I just cut my very long hair this spring. It's a bit longer than chin-length now, and I like to put it up into two pigtails. The secret with very short hair is to use vinyl ponytail holders.

My hair seems to stay out of the way when I'm wearing a helmet.

For other kinds of exercise, I cut sleeves off of old T-shirts and use them as adjustable-width headbands. I guess it's sort of like a buff, but less material. Pretty much the only thing that has worked for me over the years, and on cold days it's an extra layer of insulation under my helmet without making my helmet too snug.

They've got "stay-in-place" headbands at Lucy, but they weren't strong or wide enough to keep my hair in place.
