I found a leather gadget a while ago that's an open oval with holes for a stick at either narrow end. I could braid my hair from the nape, then flip it up against my head, tuck the loose end behind the thick part, straddle the whole sandwich with the leather, and lever the stick perpendicular under it. It was great until the cheapass plastic stick broke, and I haven't yet found a replacement that doesn't threaten to poke people in the eye. Plus I haven't had my hair cut in way too long, so it's now butt-length and would have to be folded an extra time unless I want to look like a deformed unicorn, which would make it too thick to hold. But that clip-thing never gave me headaches the way plain sticks do.

Dude - chopsticks! They're ever so pretty and cheap - at least, they are at our local Oriental Food Market.

Or a dowel rod of the right size. The small ones you can 'sharpen' in a pencil sharpener and smooth with a little sandpaper and - voila!

I had one of those leather things when i was a kid - funny how they're popular again.

I've tried chopsticks, dedicated hair sticks, pencils, dowels...none of it works like the original plastic stick. I think the plastic must have had just enough give to make it hold perfectly. I should look for a plastic chopstick maybe, but they're usually square.
