What do you do to hide bad hair?

Lately I've been really obsessed with the hippie-ish headbands. My bangs always look like shit, so if I just take a suede string or headband and wrap it around, I can disguise my evil bangs. :K

Hats. thumbsup.gif Haha, although I need more cute ones. I'm having a love/hate debate on an Ed Hardy hat... pinch.gif


But yeh, umm either that or just throw it up in a pony and hope for the best.

I'd have to just restyle it altogether. Wet it, blow-dry it, flat iron the crap out of it, blow-dry it with cool air. If that doesn't work, then I just go out with bad hair. I'm really not a pony-tail/hair accessory type of girl.

Prevention is better than the cure IMO. There was a point in highschool several years back where my hair went really greasy - I managed to disguise it with talcum powder!

Now I have frizz more than grease, so I bung it up in a ponytail and leave it.

I rarely have bad hair days, and when that happens, I just tie my hair back. My bangs are long enough for me to do that.

I like wearing hats or sometimes just tying it up. Sometimes I'll braid it or something so it doesn't look so terrible (but my hair's a little too short to do that lately..haha)

I don't have much hair accessories except for a hair tie, so if I have bad hair days (which I have rarely), I would just tie up my hair, or just let the wind mess it up to the point where people would think it just got messy from the wind. If it's really terrible, I'll just try to do things such as straighten it or maybe even curl it. I try to avoid going out during bad hair days though, and I would usually take a shower and get my hair wet, which makes it much more smoother and straighter. I try to get rid of it instead of hiding it, though.

Ehhh, I don't get bad hair days. I usually just go with it because I don't care much for my hair as much as I used to.

When i have bad hair day, there's no hope in saving it so i have to wash it, blow dry and then re-style.

Put it up into a dancer's bun, where a dancer cover-up shawl to school over a colorful cami and slap on some ballet flats and pretend I did that style on purpose. whistling.gif

***found images on google...my hair NEVER looks that slick. It's always really frizzy, but for some reason that works.

I prevent bad hair days from ever happening by showering every morning, but since swimming has started I have to shower at night, leaving me with crazy hair in the morning. So on those days, what do I do? I just jump into the shower again anyways, despite the possibility of drying out my hair/scalp.

I can't stand greasy/messed up hair at all; it's one of those things that will make my day automatically crappy and I'll feel unhappy/uncomfortable/insecure/dirty all day.

I'd rather go to school late with clean hair than on time with dirty hair. ><

I shower every night and sleep on it, this flattens my hair. And when my bangs get messed up in the morning. I put my hair up. Wash my bangs with shampoo and water. Dry with a brush and it goes the way I want it to go. I put my hair down and get ready for school.

This is my hair.
I guess that you could buy a straighter.
I would straighten at night then sleep on it, that way it would produce oil in your hair while you sleep.

I shower at night, blow dry, and straighten. Then in the morning I touch it up.
But when I don't straighten, my hair get really greasy.
I have really curly hair, ha.
When I don't straighten, I just put it up.
aha

Bah. I've had that same problem lately >.<
But now we bought this John Frieda Hair Serum, and it stops your hair from frizzing when it's humid and protects when using a straight iron :3
