My go-to style is a lazy wrap bun (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/vbjournal.php?do=article&articleid=72) but I'm also fond of spidermom's bun (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/vbjournal.php?do=article&articleid=123) and chinese buns (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/vbjournal.php?do=article&articleid=15).

ETA: That being said, I love a single centered french braid and hope to do them again once my ends stop being extremely tapered.

Two french braids! Gets everything out of my face but still shows off the length.

@ Madora that is just gorgeous!

As for my hair, I usually just toss it up in a bun.

I like keeping my hair out of the way and protected, so it's mostly buns for me : )

I love the look of updos with braids (especially rope braids), though I usually just put it up in a simple quick bun, as I don't have too much time in the morning :(

Up until a few weeks ago it was a Nautilus bun, but lately hairsticks have been making my head hurt so I've switched back to my old standby of a single English braid in the back.

Haha for some reason, I read this as "spit bun," and I was thinking "uh...haven't heard of that one!" :rollin:

My favorite way to put my hair up is in a rose bun. :) It's pretty, and looks way more complicated than it is.

I tend to keep my hair in a pinless indian style bun like this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrA0V1lsmys) but smaller and tighter as my hair's only tailbone. Nice and easy as it doesn't require pins (even though she uses a fork as an ornament, it's not necessary.

A lace braid across the front, secured with a pretty french barette near the bun, and then a rose bun held with 2 short sticks. I think rose buns are the most beautiful, and secure. They're such a pain though, so it's usually a cinnabun or modify spidermom's bun, with a fork.
