That hairstyle doesn't actually look low-maintenance to me. It looks flat-ironed and would probably need at least some product to keep it from going everywhere.

Meanwhile, I can just wrap my almost-waist-length hair into a bun, shove a couple spin pins in it and I'm ready to go in under a minute. And it's a lot less likely to be grabbed, either by perps or by babies.

(Not that I personally know about having hair grabbed by perps.)

Agreed. As someone with superfine hair (that is curly if I let it grow, which I usually do not because I am way too fucking lazy to deal with hair), it looks like she spends quality time with a flatiron and product in that pic.

I agree it's a weird looking cut too. Almost wig-like.

I had hair that length when I was a teen and the amount of upkeep it needed to not look like ass was far more than I expected or was happy with. I chopped off my long hair under the assumption that it'd be easier to deal with but it wasn't.

These days my hair is down to my ass and unless I want to look fancy when going out I just curl it up on top of my head and pin it in place, takes me like 5 mins.

I wish I could pin my hair up! It's too fine to stay in for long without mass amounts of products. But my go to mum-hair round tiny children was to plait it.

Saaaame. A ponytail I can do, obviously. But putting my hair into a bun involves:

- Six or eight bobby pins.
- The low-key pain of said bobby pins poking my scalp all day.
- The annoyance of said bobby pins slowly working their way out of my hair and me having to shove them back in all day.
- The crunchy feeling of a whole bunch of product in my hair.

Updos are hard as fuck for people with extremely fine, extremely slippery hair (plus they don't look very good, because instead of a nice big textured bunch of hair, you just get this tight little knot on your head).

Friends, have you heard the good news about Spin Pins?

My hair is baby-fine, and a couple of those hold them like iron, super-comfortable, no product needed.

They can't help with the "small pun" issue, but I don't mind that because I'm just getting it all out of the way while I do stuff, I'm not worried about how they look beyond "neat."

Wheras my hair is super thick and curly. I could put in a ponytail when it was long, and that was about it. Braids would great really messy and look terrible really quickly. And were also painful. Ponytails were painful after a while.

I don't know about this character, but I've had women with naturally straight hair telling me that cutting it short was definitely higher maintenance, because before they could just let it hang down, but now they need to use products and spend time styling it.

My hair is more wavy/semi-curly and I experienced something similar when I cut it shorter before spending a semester in the tropics. Without it's own weight pulling it down, my hair turned into a fluff ball that I had no idea how to manage. I wasn't even aware at the time how curly my hair was (neither was the stylist). Now that I know I manage the curls better, but I still won't cut it shorter than shoulder length.

[philstar22]

Interesting. My hair is super thick and also wavy/semi-curly. It is so thick that even brushing it was a challenge when it was long. It would get tangles underneath. Cutting it in a bob (a bit shorter than JJs in the picture) has been much more low maintenance for me. No product except a little argon oil some days.

[(Anonymous)]

My hair is very curly but also extremely fine. I recently cut it in a bob thinking it would be lower maintenance (it was also very hard to comb even using truckloads of conditioner) and regretted it - the length made up for the lack of volume, but now it looks terrible if I just let it be and I need to carefully style it instead :(

[(Anonymous)]

I too have thick, curly hair and I can't manage it at all if it gets past about chin-length. It starts to frizz and tangle and it's awful. Shorter than that, though? It's literally just wash, scrunch and go.

[(Anonymous)]

Same. I keep my hair super short currently because I got sick in my 20's and it started going crazy thin and falling out (I used to have ridiculously thick hair), and because it's so short you wouldn't know it's curly, but if I let it get long enough it gets weird curly until it's long enough to be weighted down.
