It lies

And I should have known better. I got a barrette, thinking it would make a nice change from a ponytail holder. Since I have very straight, very soft hair, I knew I'd need something that would really grip. This one claims it's slide-proof.

Wrong! I put it in my hair and within 10 seconds, no joke, it slid right out. Back it goes to the store. I guess I'll just get more ponytail holders.

Ok, here's the trouble I have with hair ties. Two twists is not enough, and three is too many. I end up doing it twice and then catching the ends of my hair, too, so it's a sort of semi bun.

Yeah I just throw it up in a ponytail now and call it good. Or I french braid it.

my favorite these days is a stretchy ribbon thing with a knot. however, i need to use four of them to get the right tension...
