i found this ebay seller who sells the same pieces as internationalwig,
but for much cheaper. it does take 2 weeks for delivery, i think she drop-
ships or something. anyways, i really like this mona lisa "georgie"
hairpiece.

I have a banana clip fall that I wore all the time in college.  It stayed in my hair really well...even through dance class!  However, I have fairly long hair.  I would put my real hair in a ponytail and braid the length.  I'd shove the braid inside the pocket of the fall and attach the clip between the ponytail band and my scalp.  Sometimes, I'd reinforce with a couple of large bobby pins (roller pins?).

I think if your hair is long enough to make a solid ponytail, it should work well, but if your hair has a habit of escaping out of your ponytail, then I might reconsider.

sometimes banana clips  can be really heavy and pull on the back of your head. however as said above if you already have quite long hair to make a decent pony should not be a problem. the clips are generally strong and hold quite well imo dont find them that comfy though.
