Hi ladies, I'm sure this is for you. For the past 2 years I played with a shorter hair do - just grazing my shoulders or a little higher cut at times. But now I think I'd like it longer. My hair is thick, wavy and at a stage where its getting longer but sticking out every which way. To hold myself over until it reaches a better length to work with, what do you suggest? I do pull it back in a *be it small* ponytail but the bottom most hairs tend to fall out. If I curl it, it doesn't seem to stay well and I get a 'flip' instead of curls mid-day. Suggestions are welcome on how to wear it while it grows out, styling advice - even if a clip on ponytail for fun might keep me going for the longer length and less hassle!
