Default Female hairstyles (ponytail)

I just had a discussion with my GF. She says she looks horrible with a pony tail, and that no one likes it. I say guys love it, because the neck is exposed, etc and we can actually see the face. She said I was the only one who though so and well.. you can see the result here.. I had to make a poll about it! So honest opinions, plz

I split it up between woman and men so I can see if there is a difference. I've got the feeling most women think that it looks too regular.. you know.. you make a ponytail when you sit in your baggy comfy pants (which, by the way, is also very attractive! :p) in front of the telly.

I think I might be a bit weird or something.. hopefully not, though!

If you're a girl and you think a ponytail is attractive, it does not automatically mean you're into girls, just so we've got that cleared up

Some people look good with their hair up, some not. Depends on forehead height and head shape and stuff like that. I think ponytails are a copout, for workouts, etc. If I want my hair up and back, I do twists and whatnot.

Ah, thanks.

Don't much care, depends entirely on the individual. But it would be a pretty rare individual that didn't look hot with a pony tail out the back of her ball cap.

I also twist my hair up and put a pencil, chopstick or whatever I have to secure it. I think a ponytail can look attractive though, if you secure it with a nice, plain band or barrett. I have a pony tail right now, at work, with an attractive hair clip.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of baseball caps either.

Pony tails are nice. I love watching them swing to and fro when the gal jogs bye me.

I usually point some random place and say "look" just to get her to swing her head so her pony tail swings

damn it sounds like I'm some kind of freak!

<----------- There is my pic.

Pull out the pencil and I have normal hair with a bit of wave to it. It can go up wet or dry, no styling required. Low maintenance without looking it. Better than a pony tail.

I've always wondered how you girls do all that stuff with your hair.. like put a pencil in somewhere and it just stays there! Genious!

And Lisa, only you know I'm a freak, I was mainly adressing the rest of the forum

What kind of pony tail?? A low, medium or high???? I like mine in a high pony if I'm going to the gym. If I'm at home or going out, I like low to medium......

Karky - you are making points with your girl friend and that is what counts. And we would love a picture, but that is HER decision.
