Had a 'eureka' moment the other day;
This weekend I got stuck in hot, humid and windy conditions
with no ponytail ties - I have a predominately female
household and they all needed ties so I gave up all the
ones I had. However, even if I did have a 'tie', the
hair would still blow around because not all of it makes
it to the ponytail (I'm probably at the 16th or 17th month
of 'hair age' and I didn't have a hat either).
What I did have to at least keep the hair out of my face
was, umm, sunglasses.
I swept the hair back and put the glasses on top of the
head, like one of those plastic, half-circlular hair
holder widgets - and it worked great for my fine,
straight hair.
I don't think I'll do that all the time but it did work
in a pinch.
Just thought I'd share that bit of discovery -
why women don't have a tough awkward period like the guys is because...
they can get away with wearing JUST ABOUT ANYTHING in their hair!
If men could stick all those pins and doo dads and plastic head bands...
(withOUT those butterflies...he..he) ...
we wouldn't have much of an awkward phase either!
Those SUNGLASSES acted just like a plastic headband...Great idea!
