What do you do with your hair every day?
I mostly wear it in a ballerina bun ... sometimes down/styled on the wknds.
I want to chop my hair, but am reminded that short hair is more maintenance for me.

Bun, ponytail or braid, 99% of the time. It's pretty much only down when I go out at night without the baby!

I wear it down and straight most days. Sometimes I pull it back into a pony tail or bun.

I've been wearing it down more since getting a medium length cut (below the shoulders though) - but normally it's down for the first day after washing and up in a ponytail or bun after that.

Straight and down or up in a ponytail. I prefer having my hair away from my face and up when I'm with DS, but I have thick and long hair so ponytails give me a headache if I have it up for a prolonged time.
I'm thinking about cutting this summer to about shoulder length, but still long enough to put up in a ponytail. Ponytail length is a must for me!

Down or pulled back loosely. I've been wearing headbands a lot lately.

Ponytail/bun 90% of the time. Only wear it down if we go out on a weekend or dinner!

I put up in a pony tail, bun, or half up in one of these.

I curl it and wear it down, or pinned back a little. Then the days that I don't wash it, it is back in a pony tail.

I just leave it as is, sometimes use a little clip to keep my long bangs away from my face. I never cut it above my shoulders my hair is too fine and would look weird.

Down and straight or with a bobby pin holding my bangs to the side.

Day 1 - straight
Day 2 - flat iron curls
Day 3 - loose waves/curls from the day before.
I found an online tutorial for "the better bun" and I like it so I'm going to start wearing it up some days...especially in the summer or on our swim days. Short hair always means more maintenance for me but sometimes going medium length - like around shoulder length can be easier to style

My hair is now past my boobs, and I usually wear it down and straight (because "straight" is the only thing my hair can do). I don't love the way I look with my hair up, so the ponytail usually only happens when my hair needs to be washed but I'm too lazy

@sandy: Would you mind posting the tutorial? I have never managed a decent bun.

Down and straight (which is how my hair is naturally). When I start putting it up in a ponytail by the end of the day, that's my sign that I need to get it cut! In fact, I'm getting it cut tonight (nothing drastic).

@sandy: curious about this "better bun"!
Mine gets tossed up into a crappy looking messy sorta bun 98.5% of the time.

@mrsjyw: pony tail nearly every day.
It's so annoyingly thick that it takes too long to dry. Unless I've got somewhere special to be, it's air dried & in a bun/pony tail.
Cannot wait until my appt to get my hair thinned and more manageable!

McKayla Maroney sloppy style at home and down when I go out!

I wear it down for the first two days after wash, first day blow dry, second day curlers, on the third day it goes up. It's too long and heavy to wear up, it gives me headaches.

Its curly and I wear it down during the week for work but pulled back on the weekends
grapefruit / 4085 posts
I usually wear a ponytail or bun everyday - which I feel is a bit of a copout and that I should wear it down more often. But it's so thick and coarse that it takes a lot of effort for me to get it styled just right. So I usually wear it down when I go out to dinner or something.

I wear it in a pony every day and I'm getting so bored of it! It's hard to wear down because L loves to pull at it. I only wear it down now if we are going out or on a date.
I want to start doing cute buns but have no idea how. Womp womp.

Usually blow dry straight because DH likes it like that. If it's cooperating (rare), I'll throw some mousse in it and let it go naturally wavy. If I have at least 45 min, I'll use a curling wand and curl it.
@sandy: I want to do the straight iron curls, but I can't seem to get the hang of it. Did you use a tutorial?

@PermaStudent: @NurseMommy: here's the tutorial. I found it through another blog and the girl's hair looked so cute but this is the tutorial she followed... I like doing it with hair that's been curled bc it helps give more body to the bun and the ends are easy to curl in and pin up. I love how it looks and it's super easy. I'm not good at doing hair
ETA: here's the link

@BabyBoecksMom: I've watched so many tutorials and none of them made sense to me - their technique was like "hold the iron upside down and flip your hair yadayada..." didn't make sense to me. This is the only one that I found that makes sense to me and works for me. It definitely takes a few tries but after two or three attempts it was like second nature and super easy. I love it bc it's fast and long lasting...like I could do 3 days of curls easily - the last day it much looser but I like it looking relaxed. Now I do my hair a little differently but basically the same technique that she uses

I either braid it, wear it in a pony tail or (rarely) wear it down. I don't do anything to curl/style it. I braid it when I go to bed so when I wear it down it's got some nice waves. I have butt-length hair.

Pony tail 99% of the time for me. If I'm going out I'll wear it down/half pulled back
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
Half up, ponytail, bun, french braid, variations of low key updos, french twist...I do a lot to my hair and it's all insanely easy. Mostly to hide the fact that it's dirty because I work out a lot and do not wash it often

I wear mine down most of the time. It only goes up when I'm hot and want to get it off my neck.

Ponytail most of the time. I prefer it straight down, but it gets in the way.
