Need help. I do step aerobics 4x a week and weights 3x a week. I'm beginning to get worried about how to have my bra-length hair (thin to regular thickness) while I'm working out. When I work out, I bounce alot, so I'm worried about ponytail wear and tear during step. Is there a better way to wear it during workouts?

Braid the ponytail and tie off the end of the braid. It makes a big difference.

I think Dave's suggestion is a good one. But if you prefer not to braid it, I would think how tight you tie the ponytail may make a big difference. I would think a scrunchie would be easiest on the hair. You can get it fairly secure, yet the soft material would be relatively gentle and not pull on the hair.
I love long hair and am in the process of growing mine out again, but I do have to admit that this is about the *only* area where I think short hair is really an asset. The hair stays off the face and out of the way easily and isn't hot when you're working up a big sweat. However, I also like the "cadence" a ponytail swishing on the back brings when I run!
