Hallo Ladies and Gentlemen! I figured that since the long hairs get to put up all of their updos, we could show off some of our meager short hair attempts! We can always dream of the more elegant ones we'll do when we are long hairs! So! I'll go first and show my first but hilarious looking mess of an updo from this morning to get my hair out of my face...

I'm just playing with some half and updos, but bits of hair keep falling out. Here's one I did recently. It's two pony tails made to look more like one longer one and a big old jaw clip hairtoy.

My main issues are nape of neck hair and sides not being long enough to stay tucked in. But compared to my original length this is like being Rapunzel! :grin:

Haha! This is something I can do with short hair that I could never do when it was long:

Carrie, you've had some serious growth over these past few months! I like the ponytail a lot. Have you tried a "tails up" type updo? I think there's a description on the Flexi 8 site.

Great idea for a thread! :inlove:

All I come up with are buns and messy buns.
<-- not too creative.

My hair can hold a bun because it's curly, the front is a bit longer than the back (about shoulder length) and I have no layers cut into it. But I'm thinking about getting layers so I'm hoping that this thread will give me ideas for those days when I don't want to wear my hair down. :)

Well this was my first sock bun that I did about three weeks ago. At this point is when I wonder if I'm still a shorty. I still feel like a shorty, for shore.... But hmm maybe I'm a medium-y now? But yesh, my sock bun ^_^ :

I can t make anything nice and elegant because of all those layers.
But I hope, someday, things will change...http://hotimg15.fotki.com/a/89_216/141_192/novembarkika.jpg (http://hotimg15.fotki.com/p/a/89_216/141_192/novembarkika.jpg)

I can *just* pull this look off as long as I don't make any sudden moves, or bend over, or sneeze. :bounce:

Serious - I love your little braid, that's so cute. I can't wait to rock that look.

I like this thread, we shorties need some style inspiration to keep us growing. :D

Well,the end of my braid is so thin that only one bobby pin can hold it.:o

So you just stick the bobby pin into your head under the braid? Is that comfortable? Does it hold well?
I love the way that style looks, but I've never tried it. :)

Yes, it is very nice, but everything falls down quickly ! :(
You should try it, maybe it will work better for you :)

Aw. I was hoping you'd tell me that it holds well.
I'll have to try it one of these days. :agree: I'll try to hold it in different ways to try to make it stay without pulling scalp hairs. :hmm:
