during submissive wrestling practiec my hair keeps falling out of the ponytail... any better ways to hold it back?
Different guys have different feelings about this, but I would try the ponytail plus bobby pins for the loose strands. That's what I do when I wear a ponytail, seeing as not all of it reaches my tie just yet. However, some guys refuse to wear bobby pins, so it's really up to you.
Alice bands work great... but some people think its too girly.
I know that the so-called, "professional wrestling" that you see on TV is controversial, & pretty much a staged scenario (and probably very different from the type of wrestling that you do); but, if you can tolerate it... Have you ever considered just allowing your hair to be loose, --- or, if not completely loose, then maybe in a half-tail? Visually-speaking, there's nothing more dramatic (to my eyes at least) than seeing a great-looking mane tossing and thrashing around in the air... You can always start off with your hair restrained in a secure-as-possible ponytail or bun; but if the gods of wrestling swoop down and loosen that hair-tie... Well, then "destiny" might just be dictating to you that you may have to just allow for that mane of yours to show itself off!!
