Easy hairstyles for hot weather?

Jan 31, 2010 15:10

I know for most of you it's winter (& I am soooo jealous right now!), but where I am (Melbourne, Australia) it's boiling hot. The kind of weather where you're sweating within seconds of getting out of an ice-cold shower & all you can bring yourself to do is lie in front of a fan/aircon/etc because everything else is too exhausting.

My hair is waist-length & fine/thin.. what am I meant to do with it?  Buns are fine if I'm going out, but they're not really comfortable for lying around on weekends. Braids touch my neck/shoulders & get hot, sticky & gross. Crown braid/hair taping is too tricky in this heat & on top of all this, when it gets hot, my (straight) hair, turns into a giant disobediant ball of frizz. It's soooo tempting to just cut it all off, but I know that when summer ends & autumn starts, I'll miss having long hair.

So, ladies & gents, what are your super-easy, ultra-comfortable, no-fail-even-for-hard-to-handle-hair styles?

EDIT: Thanks everyone! So many great suggestions! I think the very-high pigtail braids is the way to go for me!
