Great post! I get so tired of styling my hair the same way every morning, and will definitely try out these new ideas – good stuff here! Thanks!

In reply to Sydney Bristow. Excellent. I have the same problem. I'll pick up some spin pins.

“Pin in place” is next to impossible for my thick, wavy hair too. Typically I use elastics, roller pins/huge bobby pins, or what I affectionately refer to as ‘the claw’: http://www.amazon.com/French-Twist-Comb-Three-Tortoise/dp/B002RN6WY6

Often the claw digs into my scalp and I usually break them within 6 months, but they give me a nice neat twist while they last.

I am a huge fan of the sock bun. And in real estate, it’s a fine look. I do it wet so it’s slick lookin and very neat – not poofy. I’d have used it in both of my law offices too (regional office of largish firm and government).

In reply to Toffee. I am currently having a too-short (very curly) moment myself, as I grow out a haircut that essentially broke my part (as in, I can't get my hair to part correctly anymore). It's finally grown out long enough to go into a scarf -turned-headband with a few side pieces pulled out to frame my face. I work in a very casual industry, so it might not work for you.

I have to buy salon grade bobby pins – the regular pins from the drug store just don’t cut it in my thick and coarse hair. If my stylist would use them for a wedding updo, they’ll work.
