Do you always wear your hair the same way?

I have a habit of waking up and just throwing my hair in a ponytail. It doesnt take much to brush it or anything and its not all knotty but its just easier and faster for me to do a ponytail. I realized today that it must be about 2 years since I have done anything with it, stylewise anyways. I always have it up in a ponytail of somekind. I am thinking I might have to do something with it! Not sure what yet though. I dont really want to cut it, its currently down to the middle of my back and its not too curly or too straight. Maybe I will straighten it. Sometimes I have issues with a little frizz but not too bad. I just hate it all in my face all the time. UGH! Anyone else wear their hair the same way everyday? Almost everyday? How long has it been the way it is?

I am like you, I have had this pony tail forever. I do not want my hair cut, but I do not like it in my face either. Whenever I go out to a fancy event, I will change my style, but of course it is an upsweep still. I hate wearing it loose because for some reason, it really annoys me on my face or neck. STRANGE ME!!!!!

I am the same way. My hair is long and curly. It is too hard with 4 kids and a husband to do anything with it. When I do I just usually straiten it and wear it down. I just dont have 2 hours EVERY day to make it strait!

You are just like me. I am so tired of my hair being so long straight and no style. It has been like that for years, what i only do is to trim it like cut 3 inches from it, and then i tried bangs, and now it grown back again, i wanted to try for a bob, but i feel like i will regret cutting hair for more than 5 inches long just to get the style i want. Sometimes i also do think to wave or curl it so that i can have a brand new style. Or else why not have hair dye which will add something new for me before my birthday comes. I am caught in between curling, cutting, hair dye or perming my hair. I do like all to try but which is which. I really am tired just pony tailing my hair.

I have had my hair short in the past and as much as I would like to cut it now I know I would end up hating it as soon as I started. I just cant do short hair. I have been with bangs and without. I have had short and long. I have colored it. I have straightened it. And I have curled it. I might so like highlights or something...who knows. Guess Ill have to just go walk around a few stores and see what is available.

When I'm getting ready for work and maybe running a little behind..I throw mine up in a clip. It's not a bun but I call it my bun n run hairstlye..LOL..I don't like mine in my face either. I like it up if I'm working. If I'm going out or at home..I'll leave it down. Mine isn't as long as yours but it's still a pain sometimes...LOl..Take care.

I usually try to change it up, unless I'm crammed for time, in which case, I'll usually just throw it into a bun or a pony tail. But otherwise, I'll try to curl it or straighten it alternately, or do some other kind of wavy style in between. It's fun experimenting with your hair & seeing what works for you.

I've had my hair the same way every day for the past 3 years. It's just easier. I guess it is time to do something new, but I have to admit I have no idea what to do about it.

I usually keep my hair laid down but there are times that I have the ponytail hairstyle. I actually depends on what I will do for the day

i like to keep a style as long as i am happy with that, normally it changes in every three days. Also i rarely use a comb ... i just do it with my fingers and hand and believe me it looks good.

I always wear my hair the same way and I think its really boring! I usually just let my hair lose and I do have the same problem of frizzy hair like yours. Last month, I think, I had it cut shorter, shoulder length and put on some bangs! I thought it didn't look nice but my friends told me they like it. After a while they started to say that it was nicer the first time it was cut. I think its starting to get boring again!

I can not keep a hairstyle for more than two months. I am really amazed that how could you manage the same hairstyle for more than two years. I can not tie my hair for long as I tend to develop headache as and when I tie them. sometimes I do keep a ponytail but the duration for that is small. I love trying new hairstyles and get a rfequent hairdo.

right now,i always wear my hair the same way for about a year now.i haven't really got the extra time to go to a salon and have my hair changed into something that's new and quite fresh to look at.and because i'm always in a hurry,i always have it up in a ponytail coz i think it's a less hassle for me.hopefully,when i have that precious extra time,i'll definitely have my hairstyle changed. happy mylotting!

This week, I hesitate whether I should take another style for my hair. About half a year, I marcelled my hair and make it down to the middle of my back. But my hair grows too fast, after that, I have cut it twice. So now, it seems to be straight entirely. Now Summer is coming, and weather is more and more hot. Maybe a ponytail is a good idea. But I think that a ponytail will make my face seem very big. Oh, it's in a dilemma.

I've had the same hairstyle since I was 12 but that's because I have square head and it's the only style that doesn't look strange. :)

If you are sick of pony tails but don't like your hair in your face, I suggest getting it layered. Typically layered hair tends to curl towards the cheek and not in your face and in your way. It's also rather nice without much maintenance. Just a suggestion.

I normally just put my hair up in a ponytail. That's the way I do up my hair every day. I don't really change the way I do up my hair. I find that it's easier to just do it up in a ponytail, and just stick to that. The only time that I may change the way I do up my hair is if I have a show to do or if I have a party or something that I want to go to.

When I was younger, I do want to have different looks with my hair. I was able to have it cut short, permed, long. But now, it's been a year that I haven't cut it and sometimes I also have it in ponytail. I also put on a clip so as to prevent my hair on my face.

Pretty much. I always wear my hair down nowadays, but there was a period of time (I think from 6th grade all the way into my junior year of high school) when I wore my hair in pigtails. And before that, I wore it in braids.

My hair is very long and very straight, before i used to let it be and it used to just hang, but now i use my hair straighteners and curl it, straighten it and really experiment with styles.
