Hair

Male readers probably just want to skip this post. I am going to talk about hair and hair styles. My hair has pretty much been boring my whole life. I have had short and long hair with the same style, cut straight across. Most days start out with my hair down, usually it is wet, and by about 10 am it is up in a pony tail because it annoys me. When it is short it is usually half up by that same time. I would be totally fine with this if my hair looked decent in a pony tail, and really I have been fine with it my whole life, but someone I know who shall remain nameless continues to point out my little poof action that occurs on the left side of my head. This poof action is quite ugly and drives me crazy when I look in the mirror, but I don't actually do that very often so I don't notice all that much. I can't find a very good picture of the poof action, but here is a picture that shows it a little. Just imagine that this on a good day and that you aren't really looking head on. Sometimes (depending on the length of hair in the poof region) it sticks straight into the air. It is awful. I am not convinced it is possible to find a hair style that I like that won't go immediately into a pony tail. How do most people do that? I can't stand my hair in my face. So if you are still out there and have suggestions about a new hairstyle I am willing to try it. Currently my hair is pretty long for me, a couple of inches past my shoulders, so I have some choices. I was thinking layers or something, but I have been told before that my hair won't look good that way because it is too thin. So let me know what you think I should do with my ugly hair. Thanks.
