Side Fringe With Pony Tail

[pb100191]

I've had a fringe nearly all my life, but recently I've swept it into a side fringe. The problem is I can't wear it in a pony tail! It looks awful. It's not long at all as my fringe was above my eyelids, and it hasn't been cut.

Does anyone know how I can make it look good?! The girls at my school have sidefringes with bits hanging down, which makes it look good.

Anyone help?!

I've already been to a hairdresser and they said there's no need to cut it as it's already a side-fringe,

Perhaps ask the girls at school where they get their hair done.

I recently changed my straight fringe to a side swept look, and it worked fine. It takes some time to blowdry it in the right direction, then lots of hairspray to keep it there, but that's all I've done.

What is it about yours that you don't like? Maybe you should let it grow out more before sweeping it to the side?

I love having a sidefringe when my hair is down and everyone has complimented me on it, but it's when I put my hair up in a pony tail that it looks awful. The people I've asked have told me it doesn't, but I really don't think it does.
I can't really describe it, but it just doesn't look right. ...It makes me look like a boy!

maybe try wearing your hair only half up, instead of a full ponytail. then your hair will still look long and feminine. or wear earrings/ more dramatic makeup to ensure no one mistakes you for a boy ;)

Our school is too strict! My hair is already long so I have to have my hear up at school...and make-up is not allowed.

**Sorry that was meant to be ;

I have to have my hair up at school.

Can you sweep your fringe back and clip it on top of your head with kirby grips?
