BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Hair Updos

I have long hair and I can never get it to stay up. I have some hair sticks but they always fall out!

Hi Goldeen,
I have some good techniques described on the Hair @ BellaOnline site Look under the subject headings under Updos and in the site map under style. I think you will find some help there.

Thanks for the links, and I definitely got some great inspiration about styles to try. I still seem to have some trouble with casual styles though. Some friends of mine can just put their hair into a ponytail, swirl the ponytail into a bun and stick a pencil or two into it. It stays up. But when I try that, the hair always falls down in short order. Any tips?

I'm so sorry I didn't get back to you! I missed your post. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
The trick to making hair stay up is first taking out the slippery quality out by spraying your hair with hairspray before you put it up into the ponytail and then using enough bobby pins to hold the ends in. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
