Women with chin length hair, what do you do

My new favorite thing is to french braid the "bangs" or front of my hair like a headband. LOVE THIS- it will last thru 2 back to back Zumba classes!!!!

i swear by lululemon headbands. im not a fan of the "non-slip" ones as they pull at my hair, but i can't find the old-school ones anymore. Theyre my fav - great for keeping the hair off my face and sweat absorb-tion during cardio!

I wear a sweatband. I feel nekkid without it ... kind of like not wearing a watch.

I've gone to out of town races and forgot to pack it ... made the whole crew go with me to a sporting good's store and get one.

Although it's narrow - it's multi-functional. Today I used it cover my ears until I warmed up. It also serves as something to keep my headphones in place. But its main function is to keep my hair out of the way.

I have elastic type headband that I use, and they never slip. I also put in tiny pigtails.

I find the inch or thicker cloth headbands work for me. Keeps hair out of face, especially when bangs where in awkward growing out phase

I have the non-slip headbands that sort of work. My hair is slippery though, so even those slip. I just make sure my hair is long enough that I can always put it in a pony tail. With three kids under 3 1/2 I HAVE to be able to put it up!

I use thick headbands, or this cool elastic on one end doo-rag type of thing. Lol, maybe silly, or maybe badass thug? I like to think the latter. Also, i find that if i can at least pin my bangs back so it's not sucked onto my skin when i start sweating i can deal with just tucking my sides behind my ears when i need to.

I wear a cap...keeps the hair out of my face, and helps absorb any sweat.

I do this, too. My hair is sooooooo ungodly thick, I have to split it and do 2-3 ponytails and use a wide headband. I wash them once a week and let them air dry so they don't lose the elasticity. When they get to the point of being 'too stretched' out and slip off my head, that's when I dry them to shrink them. Works every time.

I like the Walgreen's generic cloth headbands that are about an inch thick. They are thick enough to stay in place but don't pull.

I do my hair half-up. It keeps it out of my face. Try a headband as well if you have bangs.

I almost always just wear a cap. I used to love my Buff bandana headband thingy but it got lost so back to my ugly Mizzou baseball cap that will not die.

When mine was chin length I wore my golf cap and I also used a headband. Or just wore it down.

Barrettes, one on each side.

I do the little bump/ "flat bump" with my hair or I'll use a headband.

LoraF83

Hair into a ponytail and then two cloth headbands (layered over one another, overlapping) to keep fly-aways out of my face! Works double duty & collects sweat too

Scunci makes some headbands with the rubber on them. I buy the children sized ones cause they hold better. My hair has grown quite a bit since then though and can now put it all in one elastic.

I just cut my hair to a little shorter than chin length, I use colorful snap clips for my bangs and the rest of the hair can just hang behind my ears. the hair bands that are elastic and go all the way around your head just do not work for me.


you can get these at the dollar store

I got my hair cut chin length on saturday. I loved flip clips even when my hair was long to keep the bangs back. They worked great today while working out!

I also have a friend that swears by these: http://www.sweatybands.com/

I swear by sweatybands too - they are great, and they don't move :-) Plus they have tons of neat patterns and styles.
