I have really long hair that I wear in a ponytail and I also wear those biker 'head wraps'. I have zebra print, leopard print, pink bandana style...etc. I HATE hair nets. Just because you're in the kitchen doesn't mean you can't be fashionable...LOL... I also keep a lint roller near by to remove any loose hairs or lint that may otherwise end up in/on my cakes.

I have long hair. Profile picture is from last year, my hair is at least 6ins longer and my red hair phase is over, back to brown, lol). When doing cakes I have my hair pinned up with one of those large hair clips. Love those. When you are done working you take the clip out and run your hands through your hair you have some nice curls. You can go from office (ha, ha, bakery) to date just like that! Always have my hair up. That would be embarassing if a customer found a hair in their cake. I think they don't pull the hair up on these shows because it is all show, they gotta look their best for the camera.

I have very long hair also, I pull mine into a high looped ponytail (kinda like a bun) then fold a large bandana triangular and wrap my head.

I can't stand to find a hair in my food,and would hate to have a customer find one of mine in thiers.

I actually wear a shower cap! LOL I look ridiculous but my hair is really long and tends to come out easily ...having someone find a hair in my cake is my worst nightmare, so I am extra careful.

OMG! I just discovered this hidden jewel a couple of months ago! Hated how the ponytail holder or scrunchie flattened the hair on my head and left a crease when removed. Switched to the clip and will never go back. In fact, it's part of my hair styling routine even if I'm not working in the kitchen.

My biggest problem isn't the hair that's on my head, it's what came out and stuck to my clothes while brushing or styling. I always go over myself, head to toe, with the lint roller before heading to the kitchen.

It's not the absence of hair nets that grosses me out on these TV shows. It's that the hair isn't even pulled back. Just hanging all over the place. How is that even comfortable?
