Running Running pretty much requires a major amount of bouncing up and down until, eventually, your hair becomes a sopping, sweaty mess. You need something that can withstand the occasional whip, nod and tug here and there. Because you're not slowing down on that 3-mile run anytime soon -- especially to fix a slipping headband.
What the experts say: Celebrity fitness trainer Terri Walsh says, "A low ponytail or bun is best for running." Frank Galasso, celebrity hairstylist, adds, "It's best to have your hair pulled away from face with no product in it while running." Any gel or sprays can run down your forehead and into your eyes when you sweat, causing irritation.
The look: Low ponytail or bun
Try it:
1. Part your hair down the center.
2. Smooth your hair back to the nape of your neck. Use a soft brush to tame flyaways as you go.
3. Secure your hair with an elastic, leaving the ends loose. For extra long hair, wrap the ends into a bun at the base of the elastic and secure.
