Stay-Put Hair: Locking Down My Locks

Just great.

I spent quality time in the bathroom this morning, molding my hair into follicular perfection, only to get it wind-whipped into something that looks like a cat’s been chewing on it.

Other people have stay-put hair—how are they doing it? How do beehives, bouffants and the Taj Mahelmet stay put?

One thing is clear: If I want an adult hairdo, it’s time for adult styling products. So Aqua Net, it’s been real. We’ve had good times (who can forget the permed bangs of ’89?). I’ll miss your alcohol-stench and sticky-fingered nozzle.

ghd, hi. My name’s Jenny. I think it’s time you, me, and my hair strands talked….

I apparently live in a wind tunnel. Every time I leave the house, my hair is promptly swirled straight up in the air, and driven in eleventy different directions at once. The end result is much the same as you described: looks like something the cat chewed on. I don't bother with a "style", or with any styling products. A simple, low maintenance bob is the best I can do. Now, if you hear of any companies testing their products in a wind tunnel with good results, I'll be all over that!

I'm ready to take this a step further: time to write to a few companies and demand wind tunnel-tested hair products.

Haha. :) I'd be more than happy to provide any interested company with a real-world testing environment, and a willing test subject.
