Like someone said at the start of the thread, long-ish hair and just leaving it loose. "Easy and feminine"!

Really though, I just feel comfortable that way. I never was good at trying to tidy it up, at all, and I always fiddle with it or scratch my head (while looking very intelligent) which quickly ruins most hairdo's - and once it's ruined, I've gotta take it down alltogether... Because, well, it's ruined. Perfectionism, woo!

I cut it short, especially if my country's such a humid place. Now I don't have to worry about my hair being tangled or stepped on.

Can't stand hair touching my forehead or cheeks. Have had long hair all of my life from shoulder length to the back of my knees except for one pixie cut that my mother forced on me as a child. Went from hair below the waist to above my ears. I totally freaked out. I wore high pony tail style, double and single braids as a child. Keep my hair pulled back or up as an adult. Currently my hair is a few inches below my shoulders. Always wear it behind my ears and off of my face. Due to sensory issues I can't tolerate going to a hair salon. Cut my hair myself every few months. I've been told over and over that I would be more attractive if I "did something" with my hair but I don't care what it looks like. I care more about not having to deal with sensory issues.

Very short. Husband cuts it with his clippers on one of the longer lengths every couple of months - works out about 2cm when freshly cut.
If I'm around the house and we're not expecting visitors I wear it however it happens to be when I get up in the morning.
If I'm going to work I'll wash it or wet it and run my fingers through it to tidy it up if necessary.
If I'm going out with a friend, as for work or just stick a hat on to cover it up.

Two ways- straightened and down, or in a ponytail. I hate when other people do my hair, and I don't know how to do anything more complicated than the two I mentioned.

Curling irons are a nightmare for me! xD

My hair has not been cut in over 20 years. It is not long enough to sit upon. Around home I usually wear it down, but I put it up when I go out. I usually do either a twist, a Chinese bun, or a French slide.

My hair is just below shoulder length. I almost always wear it up in a ponytail (with the ponytail tucked under the hair band so that nothing touches the back of my neck... like a messy bun). I can't be bothered styling my hair. I can barely be bothered with brushing my hair.

I usually have mine in a ponytail, or ill use hairclips to keep it out of my face when its down.
I absolutely hate the feeling of split ends on my skin, so i trim it regularly. But I'm keeping it long now. I used to have it really short most of my life.

I love hair acessories but I use them with my hair up. I like head bands, hair clips, scrunchies, different colored hair ties, barettes, you name it I wear it.

Long straight with the occassional trim to give it something resembling a shape. I took alot of flack for letting it get past my butt with not trimming. "It looks like you just don't care..." which, I really didn't. I'll toss it into a ponytail for the summer and use sunglasses to hold it back like a headband.

Mine is pretty long, a bit past my hips. I mostly wear it loose. I put it up into a bun when I need to be neat and efficient. I collect hairsticks and can do all sorts of different buns. I don't use any styling products. Just wash and let it dry naturally. I trim it by myself twice a year into a gentle U shape.
