    Talking How do you like your ponytail: High or low?

    I used to only ever wear low ponytails, then switched to high for a while, and now I'm getting back into low ponytails because my hair is BEGGING me to wear it down but I'm not giving in! I have a problem with low ponytails though, I get this weird like "trigger" to cut it off!!! > I hate that!

    So, how do you like to wear your ponytail most of the time? How come?

    ETA: If you don't like to wear ponytails, tell us how you prefer your buns!

    I love *really* high ponytails. Unfortunately, my thickness often doesn't agree with me (heavy hair), and so the ponytail has to always be a really tight one - otherwise it would fall out straight away. However, it's been years since I last wore a ponytail. A shame, because the style really suits me.

    High ponytails for me . They are much more flattering on me. Low ponytails don't seem to do anything for me and the hair underneath gets tangled.

    Plus if you pull a high ponytail tight enough you can take 10 years off yourself!

    I try not to wear my hair in a ponytail. I used to wear it all the time until I found LHC and I always saw broken strands at the pony level, so I might be associating ponytails with damage now

    The majority of the time when I do a ponytail is low, because I secure with a barrette. But I love to do high ponytails and make it bounce around

    When I wore ponytails, I tended to prefer them on the lowish side -- ear level or lower. However, somewhat before I joined LHC, I found I had a HUGE chunk of breakage in the section of hair that probably supported most of the weight of my perma-pony. So I pretty much swore off every style that started with a ponytail in 2005 or 2006. I've maybe worn a pony a dozen times since, most in the few years and all of them just around the house. So, braids or buns for me!

    Low or medium, because my high ponytail looks too thick and doesn't drape nicely, because my hair is almost all one length. Plus I always have flyaways when I do a high one.

    I'd love to wear it high but the weight and slipperiness make it impossible. It's a low pony by default.
