Hello curly gurls. After a decade of straightening my hair, I am embracing my natural hair texture and returning to the curly life. A lot of things are very new for me.

My question is, how do you put up your hair for things like the gym? I usually brush it (!) into a bun. This will obviously break up the curls and ruin them. But my hair is too heavy and hot to work out without putting it up. What do?

I put my hair into a pony tail and then use a head band to keep my bangs in check.

I just high ponytail it in a scrunchie no brushing. If too long leave a loop, if too heavy low ponytail but usually high pony.

Pony tail or folded bun, but I also have an undercut so I don't have to worry about gathering the hair from the sides/back of my head.
