Mm, I have the same problem. I take a shower every morning and never have time to dry my hair completely, so if I don't put it in a relatively high ponytail it gets my shirt all wet... XP I like it down, but then it a) gets in my face and b) gets all messy and hard to comb. :/

So let me get back to you on that one... I'll think. :)

I could probably give you a few. I, too, have longish hair and it's also sort of layered up (if you have really thick hair like mine, that's a good way to have it). But anyway, one way I do my hair is I part it on the side and take the top part of the heavier side and sort of twist it back. Then I take a really small strand of hair and twist it in with it, so it will stay in place better. Then take a small elastic band and tie it around the hair (or a rubber band, if you want to). And finally (this part is optional, but I personally like it better this way) take a miniature "claw" hair clip and put it over the elastic.

Another way I do my hair is I just part it on the side (it's usually always parted on the side, because I don't realy like my hair parted in the middle...) and keep it back with a headband. Preferably a softer rubber headband with an elastic-ish part in the back, because the normal kind give you headaches after a while (or they give me headaches, at least). That's just a really simple style, though. :)

And, (I'll just say one more) if you want to put your hair up, a good way to do it is take your hair like you're going to put it into a ponytail and sort of twist it into a bun. Then, just tie it off with hair elastics. I'm not a huge fan of buns, but if you don't make it all tight looking and don't put tons of hairspray on it (I don't really use hairspray much anymore) it can look good. Anyway, I hope I helped some! :) If you were confused with any of my instructions, just tell me and I'll try to explain better. I have problems with that sometimes...

I'll write back if I can think of some more. :)

Um, usually I just put mine in a ponytail, leave it down, or pull up just the very top section to keep it out of my eyes. Sorry, I don't really have very many tips :( Sometimes after I get out of the shower, I braid it loosely and then take it out the next morning, which makes it wavy *eyes widen*Sorry, I have this obsession with wavy and curly hair...mine is too straight :( Blech :P

I knwo what you mean. I had my hair cut pretty short for a while, but now I've been growing it out for what, 3 years. I usually just wear it down long, but somethign easy liek a side ponytail looks nice. What I like to do is make a side ponytail, and then take 3 or 4 tiny sections from the top and braid them. It actually looks pretty nice! (By the way, if you don't know how to braid, it's actually pretty easy. You just take 3 (not 2!) sections of hair, and then start overlapping them, starting with the furthest left.)

You could also take just a little bit of hair and pull it back in a ponytail, so that it;s half up and half down. Erm... those are the only ones that I cna think of that no one lese has mentioned. :)

Well, I usually let my hair hang loose.  Sometimes I put it in a french braid.  If you don't know how to do it I'll explain as well as I can... 

You take the top part of your hair and start braiding it.  Then you add strands of hair to the three other strand thingies to make them thicker.  And then When you have all your hair in a briad, yu can keep on braiding or put a ponytail at the end right away.  That might not have made much sense, but that was the best I could do.  Even if you don't understand it much, you could try it anyway and make up a hair thing of your own.

I also use a stick to make a loos bun.  Start out as if you were makeing a ponytail and then after you have all your hair in your hand start twisting it until it's a bunnish thing on yur head.  Then you take a stick and kind of weave it through yur hair so the bun will stay up.  

I also sometimes do my hair like a fountain was sticking up over my head.  Bend over so the top of your head is facing the ground and grab all your hair and pull it up so that it's sticking straight up the top if yuor head.  Then put a ponytail in to hold it up.  So now all your hair is stickking up over your head.  Then you pull the hair up more and let some shorter part of it fall down so that it's kind of like water squirting out of your head.  Then put a other pony tail in to make the hair even higher.  Then, depending on how tall your hair is and how tall you want it to be, keep on doing that.

Okay, sorry if some (or all) of those don't make sense.  I'm not very good at giveng people insructions except on how to turn banana's in to poop...  So, I was thinking of dying my hair dark blue so that the fountain hair thingie can be even more like a fountain.     

Mine was long for most of my life, but for a couple of years now I've had it short, it's easier to deal with.  Sadly, I don't have any fun ideas, because my hair was, well, is too heavy and thick to do anything with.  Most people say they would kill for my hair, but I would do anything to have just one day with curls!!!!!!!!

I think it's so weird how everyone always wants hair that's like the opposite of theirs!? I have always wanted, thin, silky, straight hair. My cousin has always wanted dark hair but she has blond. It's crazy!!
