sgrace - I saw your latest picture in your hair journal!

Your topsy tail hair style looks great! It's so different from the normal ponytails we see around. I love it!

Looks cool! Is it comfortable? Topsy tails give me a headache, but maybe dividing it up increases the comfort? Anyway, it does look nice on you, sgrace!

Re: sgrace - I saw your latest picture in your hair journal!

Hey thanks Elle and Hairstorm !

The topsy tail is very comfortable for me, but I did end up taking out the last "topsy" because it was getting caught on my collar and bugging me.

It takes a while to master the thing, and if you start with a tight pony than it does make it painfully tight after the twist. I can wear it with a single pony or divided, it's actually more comfortable for me than a regular ponytail. I think the key to doing it with all your hair at once is to wear it at the nape of your neck where it does not put pressure on the back of your head.

I used to wear my hair like this as a young girl and was suprised at how elegant it looks as a grown up!

Thanks for the tips; I'll try it looser and lower. I'll have the braid the tail, though; I get too tangly loose.
