Getting a bit off topic here....but you can use an "Ancestory Visa" to live and work in the UK if you are Australian and have British parents or grandparents (I had a grandfather from England). But still.....snow...hmmm....I wouldn't know what to do with the stuff!
I love a simple ponytail. If I need my hair to be more formal, I use a large barrette at the bottom of the neck. If I'm cleaning house, then a ponytail higher on the head works well, it looks a little silly, but I'm at home, so who cares.

I have to revise my earlier answer, and at the same time "bump" this discussion if that's okay Dave?
I just learned how to do a sock bun and it is my new favorite updo. Here is a photo of my first attempt:
Hope that image works...... Anyway, I love this because it is super easy to do (took me 20 seconds), it is nice looking, it looks like I have lots of hair, and it is cool for the summertime.

I think i'm 1 & 2 also. And becoming progressively more dishevelled. Now I've taken to wearing a damp bun to bed which dries into big curls that can be clamped into a bun-like monster. With messy bits everywhere. Thankfully in my art shop job appearance is not an issue!
Failing that a simple plait is the next best option.
By the time I've got off the bus both myself and my hair have melted anyway. The melting point of a Brit is 29 degrees, I'm way out of my depth here!
That's amazing, SK! It looks like you've suddenly got a massive amount of hair!
Thanks Dave! It is fun to find a new style that increases my hair volume (even if it is an illusion!). I think the sock bun is gaining popularity - but it isn't a new idea. My mom used to do these with a round mesh thingy back in the 70's, but she had to use lots of bobby pins.

Have you tried the sock bun? I bet it would look great on you! I learned about it from our hair triplet, Nightshade. I LOVE THIS BUN!
