My hair is long enough for a decent ponytail, but I have longer sideswept fringe. SO annoying when they get in my face (or when I wear a headband-tickle my ears.

How do you pin back your fringe when you're running etc

    Usually with the sweat that builds up on my head. It sticks it right back, haha. Seriously, I stopped caring about cute hair and am concentrating on rocking body now.

    I'm growing my hair back out now from being bald, so I look completely awful in the gym or when I'm running. If I'm in a particularly self-conscious mood, I throw on a ball cap.

    Sometimes I put on a bandana. I'd do a headband, but they're too tight and give me a headache. When my hair was really long, I pulled it into a bun and used the bandana.

    I don't care about cute. I'm going to get very sweaty and then wash it when I'm done, anyway.

    I either rock a cute hat, a bandana, or I sometimes braid the front...I really dont care if it looks that cute as I am there to workout not attract others! plus the hat puts me incognito so I can workout not socialize!

    Hey I figure I already look scary enough whilst huffing and puffing around the gym. The least I can do is keep my fringe out of my sweat

    Love the braid idea. Will try later

    I gave up on cute a long time ago (I work out at home or run outside), but I've twisted my bangs and pinned them to the side, kind of like LC's braid, but easier.

    My sweat works like hair gel basically, keeps it all slicked down.

    When I first started running I cut all my hair off.

    Failing that, kirby grip it out your face and get on with it.

    I have the same problem, and, for some reason (I must have a weird-shaped head, too), hair bands won't stay on when I am running.

    I usually do 2 pony tails (a little one closer to the front, on top of my head, to hold the bangs, which then goes into a regular one in the back) or I use snap clips (not barrettes/kind of like a paper clip for hair) just to hold my bangs.

    Is this question serious?


    Generally, when I'm busting my hump and working up a sweat, I give not one single crap about how my hair looks.

    Just two bobby pins criss-crossed. Either pull bangs to one side, or draw them straight back. They stay!

    Cute hair for the gym? What? You are going to be sweating and perhaps getting some serious swass (sweaty *kitten*) and you are worried about your hair? Ugh. Go get a fckn hairband.
    What's next, makeup?!

    Why are you so angry? She said it's annoying how it gets in her face, and needs a fix. Who cares if she wants it to look cute?
