Hi, I've been looking around for ways to put up my hair but i'm having difficulty finding any casual/simple that i can actually do! I've looked on this site but I couldn't find any that I thought I could do! Any tips people?

Oh yeah, my hair is about elbow length and I am NOT good with hair styling so simple please...

French braiding is simple once you know how to do it.  So is putting it in a bun, pony tail, french twist, spiral twist, or that topsy-tail style.

How about a scrunchee bun? It's sort of a ballerina look and very cute. Do it smooth for a classy look or messy for a fun and funky look. Gather the hair at the back of your head as if you're making a pony tail (but don't put the holder in yet); twist the hair firmly but not overly-tight and coil it around, and then wrap the scrunchee around the bun. I wrap twice for shoulder-length hair. You may need a large-size scrunchee. Good luck!

Mine's just below my shoulder blades and THIN. I use that scrunchie bun method often. If I'm feeling 'sporty', I let a loop of hair hang out. I have to be careful though....my Boxer puppy LOVES to play with that loop of hair. ;)

I practically live in a scrunchie bun. I have two kids, one of whom is only 4 weeks old and has discovered my hair. Not much fun prying tiny fingers out of my hair!

I HAVE FOUND A METHOD!!!! IT'S A MIRACLE!!!!  It's called a hairgami(?) and you just put it up in a pony tail, twist it up and click it in to place! Perfect!!!
