I did put my hair in a pony tail but obviously did not use enough pins. Not
even enough for me to find my way out

The best answer, then, is to costume yourself as the White Queen from
Lewis Carroll's THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS, and celebrate the scattered

Start with 'day-old' hair, not freshly washed. It won't be so dry and
difficult to keep in place. Styling products
Mine stays in a bun better if it's slightly dirty - much more slippery if it's
clean. Would a hairnet spoil the effect you want?

I have to admit I'm one of those disgusting ones whose hair stays in a bun
pretty much by itself (can't braid it though because the cohesion is too much).
_However_, if you put the hair in a pony tail first and then

Sadly for me my hair is slowly becoming less thick and every time I get it
evened up it gets a bit shorter as well. I have had good luck back
The best trick i have is to section your hair. first make a part in the hair
from ear to ear, and take the back hair and make a bun. the front hair you
divide in 2 at where you want a part, then take each section and wind it around
the bun and pin well. It holds for me, and I got super smooth

Depending on the length and thickness of your hair, you might also
try braiding it before twisting it into a bun. I do this frequently.
I also use hair sticks to hold the bun, but hairpins, like the
sticks, would be more

I'm open to anything, short of super glue. A hair net might do the trick--or

Dear All,
I had a book signing recently. In preparation, I pinned my hair up in a bun,
only to have the whole mass fall out of its pins soon after arrival. Do any
of you have any sure-fire suggestions as to keeping ones hair in a bun until

Marjorie,
I use hair sticks rather than hair pins. My hair is very long and
very thick, so regular bobby pins I can get at the local stores are
totally useless. I prefer the sturdy metal and wood to the plastic. I
also prefer the two-prong sticks to the singles. You can get short
and plain
I find the best way to keep my hair anchored in the
bun or twist is to use either a foam mousse or
hairspray before putting it up. Otherwise, it just
slides right out no matter how many pins I use.
Generally I find the best method for dry hair is to
bend over and hang my head down, comb the hair
for
the hair loss. Ya gotta be tough to get old (er)
