When you bake, which do you find the most comfortable?

I use a bandana. I stopped using ponytails because they were pulling out my hair, and hairnets....well, are beyond uncomfortable and leave marks on my forehead triggering migraines.

I like the classic ponytail myself. A bandana sounds like a great idea, but I could definitely see myself wanting to fidle with it and readjust it all the time, ha.

I use a ponytail pulled through a ball cap. My favorite "Life is Good" hat!! Gets me in the zoonnnnneeeeee.....

Ponytail for me! But now I'm in a ponytail all the time

I have really long hair, so I always put it in a pony tail or twist it up in a clip. Hair nets also trigger my migranes...good to know I'm not the only one.

I use a hairnet and I agree with OP it leaves marks and I always have a headache...but i get headaches also with ponytails and bandanas.

my hair is really long and hubby says i shed hair all over the place so i always put my hair back in a ponytail and give myself a bit of a lint roller treatment before i go to the kitchen

Those who wear ponytails...do you worry that a long hair will fall away? I always clipped the end up like a bun when I wore them, because of the swinging-like-a-horse's-tail part... I am super paranoid about hair in food, so I may be over cautious..

I have short hair so I wear a hairnet-a pink one at that. I have actually forgotten I had it on and answered the door for the UPS man...embarrassing!!

My hair is short now, so my ponytail doesn't hang much. But ya, when I had longer hair, I'd put it up right into a bun. Or clipped away with one of those claw clip/butterfly clip things.

My hair is long enough that I twist it up with a hair clip. But I might have to find a good "cakin" hat and do what Havingfun does.

Hairnet...I look like Gladys Ormphby from Laugh-In I'd DIE if someone found a hair in my buttercream!!

I wear a ponytail and a bandana and clip up my ponytail.

OMGosh!! Mrs A, I shed terribly also!! I shower, brush hair upside down, right side up, put it in a ponytail, THEN get dressed, after shaking out my clean shirt. Then I put on my "Life is Good" hat. I am soooo paranoid about getting hair in a cake or icing. This menopause crap is for the birds.

I have VERY long hair also, and shed like crazy! I brush my hair then put it in a pony tail but on the last pull through i dont pull it all the way through but leave it like a bun, just instead of it hanging loose it hangs in a loop, then I wear a bandana (triangle fold) over the top.

I have really long hair and put it in a very loose ponytail, but I have to keep redoing it as it falls out. Now before anyone thinks 'god shes stupid' I can't bear to have my hair fastened tight or wear anything on my head after having 4 brain surgery's because of a condition I have. All this has left my scalp super sensitive. I don't want any sympathy votes just any ideas what I could do/use besides shaving my head.

My hair is waist-length and jet black and gets super heavy and pulls on my head when I wear a regular ponytail, so I always do a long braid.

'Jaimeann' thats an idea, certainly given me something to think about...Thanks

tThis is kind of like what I'm talking about. A mob cap or dust bonnet but I want to make it with a band that would tie at the nape of the neck instead of having elastic, so it wouldnt be as constricting.

I have reallly long hair as well. It goes past my bra strap a good three inches so I usually always wear a ponytail whether I'm baking or not. When I bake I wear some really cute bandana head wraps that I bought at a biker shop I am so paronid that someone will find a hair in one of my cakes that I keep a lint roller near and use it several times while I'm baking/decorating to make certain that I don't have any loose hairs floating around. I also wear a white shirt so the hair would be easy to spot just in case. I hate hairnets beyond measure.

I have waist-length hair, which I put in hairclips and a braid when I work in the kitchen.

I use a ponytail AND and bandana to keep any pesky bits from falling in my face.. I have some little bits in front that are a lil shorter and don't want to be touching my hair to tuck it behind my ears then have to wash my hands afterwards each and every time before I touch cake stuff again!

If a customer found a hair, would they say something???

<throat closing thinking of hair in food>

I usually tie my hair in a ponytail, but I will have to consider the hat thing.

I have long waist length hair as well and I wear mine in a knotted bun.Spray it with hairspray and way I go...I hardly ever wear it down anyway...Come to think of it I don't even know why I bother having it long...

I'm actually thinking of shaving my head again... as in "bald".
It's easier, and I have a nice head shape. I shaved my head once in support of a friend who lost her hair to chemo, and I actually liked it.

It's a ponytail for me, but I use the now way out of date scrunchie instead of a hair tie. The scrunchie keeps it pulled back but isn't so tight that it gives me a headache.
