Spinning As you mount your bike and prepare for the fastest ride you'll have all day, that strand of hair that even thinks about falling onto your forehead is dead to you. Dead. Instead of having to fuss around with a fatigued ponytail during your session, your best move is to keep it way out of the way -- so all you have to focus on is moving your legs at the speed of light.
What the experts say: "The best hairstyle for a high-intensity workout is a high top-knot bun with a headband," says fitness expert and trainer Fitz Koehler. "If you are taking your favorite cycling class, it is imperative that your hair stays put. I love a high bun because the hair stays off your face and neck, while the headband ensures that sweat isn't falling into your eyes. Secure your hair with multiple elastics or bobby pins so that your hair is never a problem during cardio workouts."
The look: Headband bun
Try it:
1. Smooth your hair to the top of your crown using a soft bristle brush.
2. Once your hair is at the top, secure it into a ponytail using an elastic.
3. Wrap your ponytail ends around the base of the elastic, and then secure using another elastic.
4. Place a headband along the hairline of your head to finish.
