How are you wearing your hair today?

[bparnell75]

the Spock bun .......What else?

[Arctic]

Spock-frame bun (secured with large bobby pins).

[Pinni]

High bun. I have found a bun that looks ok on me. So surprised and I have now a hairdo that I can use at bad hair days!

[EssentialJo]

Bun.

Don't know if this has a name: placed the stick at the back and wrapped my hair around it tucking the ends in.

[Groovy Granny]

Down ~ air drying after my clarifying Shampoo :eyebrows:

[Sarahlabyrinth]

the Spock bun .......What else?

Same here.... :D

[spirals]

English braid.

[TatsuOni]

Still my sleeping braid. Later it will be a bun.

[Dendra]

In a low cinnabun secured with three spin pins. Shocked that I need three when some true longhairs seem to only use two, and the packet recommends using two...

Don't be shocked, he he! I always use 3 or even 4. Those with very long hair have completely different methods/challenges/advantages when it comes to putting your hair up than those with shorter hair. For example I have APL hair, layers, blunt hemline and poofy hair and my buns are mostly air. I need lot of securing. Those with long hair have much, much more dense, compact buns and often some natural taper which helps the ends stay in. Completely different beasts!

You just need to do what works for your hair, there is no right or wrong number of pins/sticks/clips. The most important thing is that your hair style is secure (and since this is a long hair forum, also that the securing methods are hair friendly).

[Frankenstein]

Cinnabun/bee butt bun hybrid

[MoonRabbit]

Sprayed my hair with water and did some double dutch braids. Hoping to get some awesome braid waves.

[bparnell75]

So far I have had a horizontal pha, and a Spock bun. head is itchy for some reason today, so I keep taking it down. Maybe I will try a Palmier.

[Arctic]

Was in damp double cinnabuns, now down to finish drying.

[Aredhel]

Loose for the time being to let it dry. Will probably do a loose English braid later. :)

[Suze]

In a bun with 2 accent french lace braids. Secured with a Ficcarissimo (glittery, Polka Dot).

[Kat-Rinnè Naido]

In a braid.

[triumphator!]

Uggggggghhhhh I can't get my hair to do anything properly today! :mad:

[Arctic]

cinnabun (part of the time damp). Now down for bed.

[Ligeia Noire]

It is a holiday today around these parts and we went to a Lebanese restaurant for the first time so I let my hair down, it was a pain to comb when I got home but it felt gooooooooooood ;p

[lottiealice]

Loose, but I'll be putting it in a bun (might try a sock bun) later for the gym.

[Kat-Rinnè Naido]

In a braid bun

[Arctic]

Right now in a top knot. Probably will make a diagonal french braid later on.

[Ondine11]

I switched from a center part to a side part today. Not a big deal to anyone else, but, for me, ANY hair change is a big deal, since I'm recovering from hair loss & I'm paranoid that it's all going to abruptly fall out for no reason, at any moment. Looks nice, though; really changes my face.

[TatsuOni]

A twisted LWB with a stick.

[mira-chan]

A mess. I'm wearing a mess.

It's a sleep braid that has gone wild put up with a ficcare so it doesn't get in the way. I don't expect to be leaving the house for a while. Anyone who comes to the door has brought this horror upon themselves.

[Frankenstein]

Gibraltar bun

[Dendra]

Don't be shocked, he he! I always use 3 or even 4.

Hehehe true! I still don't think I completely understand the physics of the air-bun vs hair-bun, though I know you're speaking sense! It seems like the longer people's hair is the less stuff they need to keep it up with, like just one stick for example.

In other news today I wore a new style for me - two english braids, each pinned to the back of my head with two mini clips. Engineered to fit under a sun hat.

[TatsuOni]

Braided Chinese bun.

[Frankenstein]

Braided cinnablob

Log roll with ficcare, again. It was still a little damp this morning so couldn't use the wood forks today.

[Arctic]

Dianyla braid.

[Arctic]

Log roll with ficcare, again. It was still a little damp this morning so couldn't use the wood forks today.

I'm probably overly cautious with my one and only Ficcare, I don't want to use it on damp hair. Someone told me it causes tarnishing.

[TatsuOni]

French braids that ends in a braided bun.

[mira-chan]

Cinnablob with a 60th street fork.

[Sarahlabyrinth]

It's braided at the moment but I may wear it loose for a while later. I wore it loose for a couple of hours and now it's up in a Nessa bun.

[Hairkay]

I let the bush out loose today. I'm twisting it up for the night.

[EmbracetheHippy]

Thank you :joy: I'm so happy about it, it feels great and marks the end of putting my hair up in a claw clip and four mini claw clips! Which was, at times, exhausting.

I had a braided Chinese bun.

twill, that's beautiful!!

Thanks! Had a bit of a time finishing it - my husband soldered the wires for me and then I filed down the rough edges, but I'm happy with it now.

I used to do the Chinese braided bun quite a lot... I should do that one again sometime.

[spirals]

I have a dickens of a time with the chinese bun. I need a stick and fourteen hair pins...

[twill]

I have a dickens of a time with the chinese bun. I need a stick and fourteen hair pins...

I was doing it fairly often, so I got it down to the point where I just needed 2 sticks and 2 big bobby pins to hold the tucked ends under the bun. How I would do it would be to stick one hairstick through the bases of the 2 braids and then wrap them both around into a bun, then add the second stick where ever the most support/hold was needed. Then the 2 pins once everything else was in place.

[spirals]

Oh, I think the difference is that mine is iii. And curly, which adds bulk. It just spits out pins, haha. I did the stick through both braids today. I'd rather do without the ponytailer also.

[Sarahlabyrinth]

After a battle with Hair and about 3 styles later, a Hypno bun. Why it didn't tell me that's what it wanted all along, I don't know... :p

Your hair is so thick and lovely :) I love the red in it too!

[cm006j]

Thank you! :D

I think the red (well, it's supposed to be pink but came out more red) looks pretty funny when it's down, but I like how it looks in updos so that works for me! hahaha. I put bleach in my hair randomly and then used Overtone pink on it.

I love how real y'all are. Here's my photobombing hubby. I had soup for lunch. I feel a certain kinship. Well, minus the hubby; still working on getting one of those. Meanwhile you are there looking fabulous with that flex-8. And your sig line: wow, so pretty--you and your hair! I hope you get back to 2013 soon. Also, I love those dresses on the left, the blue and the red print.

Today, a braided cinnabun.

[TheBoldLife]

Side braid with a ribbon tie for the least amount of damage on my poor split ends.

[AZDesertRose]

Down to dry for now. I might try to do something more creative with it than I have been lately (it's been a lot of low ponytails with an occasional nape cinnablob-type bun when I'm taking a bath or shower and not washing my hair) once it's dry.

[Frankenstein]

High-up lazy wrap bun

[AZDesertRose]

Wound up going for a left-sided side braid, and it's been so long since I braided my hair, I was actually clumsy doing it!

For reference, I'm 41 years old and have worn my hair longish for most of my life since around age twelve when my mom decided I was old enough to decide how I wanted to wear my own hair, and, as long as I took decent care of it, she threw away her Give-A-Rip on the point for the most part (except for trying to talk me out of the Disastrous Pixie Cut of Summer 1992, between my eleventh and twelfth grade years of high school--and, incidentally she was right to try to talk me out of it! It never really looked good except when professionally styled!). I learned to do a regular English braid somewhere in childhood, because I remember braiding doll hair from about age six on, and I learned to French/Dutch braid somewhere in late childhood or early adolescence. I think one of my aunts taught me because my mother to this day doesn't know how to French/Dutch braid, but one of my aunts is a long-hair and has never in my memory worn her hair shorter than waist/hip, and she used to French braid my hair for me when I had spent the night with my cousins/her daughters, who are close to me in age. Thus, it's really odd for me to be such a butterfingers at a simple three-strand English braid!

Cinnabun with 3 mini spin pins and 3 spin pins. It's holding really well. Yay, I didn't have to redo my hair when I got to work and bun didn't fall apart during my errands. I will wear this often.

[leayellena]

my ever first tucked in french braid. https://plus.google.com/photos/photo/117443690656099550325/6437724998438114834?icm=false&authkey=CJifseDWyZvHrQE not cute, but I am still beginner. maybe I should buy some spin pins.

Cinnabun held with a fork. I'm not that fond of the cinnabun but it sure is simple and easy when you can't think of anything else!

Right now it's up in a French Twist, but I haven't detangled it yet this morning, must go and do that after I help DH move some furniture.

This reminds me that in my middle-agedness I have gotten lax about grooming. I used to wash my hair every other day and style it. Now I sometimes can't remember my last wash and I can go a couple of days without detangling. I used to shave my legs every day and now I say "Ain't nobody got time for that." Or I just don't feel like it. I am fastidious about my skin care still but often a full face of makeup--which I used to do every single day--is something I don't feel like bothering with. I think this is a good thing. I needed to relax. And benign neglect fits right in.

Now I sometimes can't remember my last wash and I can go a couple of days without detangling. I used to shave my legs every day and now I say "Ain't nobody got time for that." Or I just don't feel like it. I am fastidious about my skin care still but often a full face of makeup--which I used to do every single day--is something I don't feel like bothering with. I think this is a good thing. I needed to relax. And benign neglect fits right in.

Totally agree :)

A log roll today. It's so easy and I never have to worry if it looks ok. It was my everyday updo when I had WL hair as a teenager. Some days I can't be bothered messing with whatever style, so a log roll lets me just forget about all that fussing.

Sarahlabyrinth how do you secure your log rolls? I love the way they look but I always find they tend to slip out on me.

Under an old shower cap and a towel with henna in roots. After that will it be indigo in the roots, wash and then down to dry.

My hair is still in my sleep bun, a very uncharming bee butt bun on the top of my head. I'm not really planning on changing it either because I'm going to relax today :meditate:

Rolled my sides to behind my ears, joined those two ponys into one braid, then practically STAPLED the braid to my head. :D Used all of my snap clips. Not moving at all.

In my go-to style (at the moment), peacock twist with one big claw clip and four minis. Sooo easy in the morning.

Now that I can post more than just "ponytail with a scrunchie" LOL

I made a high-ish "bun" (I can wrap the hair cinnabun style one whole rotation around now :laugh: ), and then clipped it with a large hair clamp! All but a few baby hairs at my nape stayed up all day, and I just took it down and have not a single tangle. Amazing. Hopefully this will inspire me to stop being so lazy :P
