Haro! I am reasonably new to long hair and it has been pissing me off at Le gym. If I wear a ponytail it digs into my head while benching. If I have pigtails they get caught up in the bar while squatting.

Is there any secret great way to put hair up so it doesn't get caught on things. I even pinned myself to the floor via my pigtails doing DB floor press last week!

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Shaving hair off is not an option I have been growing it from having used to shave it for many years now! :grin:

A low plait or low pony tail. My hair is long enough so I can brush it to the side and have it hang in front when I squat. Actually, having said that - pony tail to the side! :pfft:

Ponytail to one side is a good idea or even princess leia bun on one side could be good! French plait would be ideal except they take too long and too much co-ordination to do at 5am!

I could hold your pig tails while you squat?

At 5am?

The only reason I couldnt help out is because when I get that close to womens hair I have to sniff it and most women dont enjoy that. Other wise I would be there with bells on. :pfft:

You should be a hairdresser, then you could sniff hair all day and nobody would think it was too weird!

I have to change how I tie mine depending on whether I'm benching or doing other lifts. If it's a bench day, then it has to be a low ponytail (at the nape of the neck). Otherwise I just do a ponytail. My hair is getting pretty long at the moment (needs a good shearing), so if I'm squatting I'll often do the low ponytail thing but instead of letting the 'tail' bit all flow, I tie it up so that it's more 'bun' like (but not a bun, just kind of folded back up - seriously, I have no idea how to describe all the possible kinds of ponytails!!).

Princess leia buns.

Yeh I have tried those and they come undone and just annoy me, I'm prolly doing them wrong! Good suggestion though especially from a boy!

I'm full of good suggestions.

For example, shave your head down to the stubble a la Sinead O'Connor.

Or try and pull it off as the "chemotherapy chic" look.

I used to shave my head, it was really good, you wake up in the morning and your hair is already done, you save money on shampoo and stuff, except it's a little chilly in winter brrrrrrrrrrr

Bench I wear it down with my cap

Deads & Squat tied back in a half sort of bun thing like CC said you know how you got to do a ponytail but don't pull it all the way through....

Cap would be good, I could also use it to block out the other gymming people! 1/2 pony tail is a good idea then it wouldn't waft about when squatting. Thanks ladies! oh and Rimma :grin:

Wearing a cap is awesome, I'd be lost without mine! Also good for having those sneaky looks at the hotties without getting busted lol :pfft:

Alas there are no hotties at my gym :cry: the only people I have to choose from is:

Partial squat man -who just annoys me with his 1cm ROM.

Cleaner man - who cleans the gym in between sets and the hair on his back pokes through out of his t-shirt.

Santa claus man -who looks as old as santa and has the same beard and wears rugby socks pulled up to his knees.

*sigh*
