If you catch the same section of hair in opposite directions, it makes it much harder for it to fall out.</p> <p><strong>Darren</strong> - Haha I'll cut your hair... got a bowl I can use? :P </p> Kristen – Try using overlapping bobby pins facing opposite directions on particularly difficult sections of hair.

No matter how I pin, clip, gel, mousse, or hairspray my hair, bits of it always end up falling out. Any advice? I have another hair related question:

Mine is pretty slippery and difficult to style, and this works well for me. I find that doing this right after a shower (you can see my hair is wet in the pictures) also helps, and makes it easier to get the hair into a bun. </p> <p>For shorter hair... it depends. If your hair is long enough to get into a ponytail and you can wrap it around and get smaller bobby pins in, then this method will work just fine. If you can get your hair in a ponytail but can't wrap it into a bun, try wrapping a hair net around it and then using small bobby pins to secure the hair net. If you can't get your hair into a ponytail, then use hair gel, hairspray and bobby pins to slick your hair back and there are little *fake buns* you can buy from wig stores (maybe even drug stores?... I'm not sure) that you can stick on the back of your head where a bun would normally be and secure it with bobby pins. Hope that helps! :)</p> For sleek hair, this should work just fine.
