I need to do something with my hair. It is fairly long,
(lower back), and it doesn`t always look good down so I like to wear it up and pulled back a lot. Well,
the problem is it is too heavy to be comfortable. It feels like it is pulling my hair too much. I hate to get it cut shorter but I don`t know what else to do.
Also, my pony tail looks too bushy. (My hair is wavy.)
Any suggestions?

I don`t know what you could do, I`ve heard that long hair can sometimes put strain on your back or neck, causing you to get sometype of back or neck problem(I can`t remember it that well, I read something about it about 2 months ago.)
:DI hope someone here can help and has a better solution than cutting it shorter.

Hi! I had the same problem with mine. It was halfway down my back and I got it all cut off up to my chin in a layered bob. it looks awesome and the weight is all gone! Well.....it has been fun and I have enjoyed it for about 6 months and am now missing my long, heavy hair. I can tell you that the my hair was so thick that I could only wrap the thick goody band around it once and it would be hanging down loose 15 mins later. So I started wearing it in a braid down the back like an indian. I would wet it from the neck down and put gel in it, then braid it so that it would look nice and straight. Then put some tigi bed head shine junkie on it.
Always worked and stayed nice all day.
