How To Tuesday: Wear Your Hair When You Haven't Combed It

Okay. I haven't brushed my hair in four days. I stayed in for three days straight and since my hair is not easy to comb, I just let it go. Today I was running late and knew it would take forever to get all the tangles out so again, I just let it go. But since I was going to be in public, I couldn't just leave it looking like a cavewoman mane. So I put it up in a yarn messy bun, which I first learned about at A Beautiful Mess. Except this turned out to be a really messy bun.

I was running late, but not so late that I couldn't
take these pictures before getting out of the car.

The back of the bun. Reallly messy.

I just wrapped the piece of yarn around my head behind my bangs, attempted to weave it into my rat's nest of hair, and pinned it up.

Later, I took the yarn and pins out and put it into a side ponytail for some casual socializing.

It's still obviously uncombed, but both hairstyles look better than my previous totally out of control anti-hairstyle. I should also mention that after I washed it this morning, I put some olive oil in the bottom half and then partially rinsed it out in an attempt to prevent too much frizz. I think it worked as well as it could have.

So when am I planning on combing my hair?

I don't know. I'm kind of liking the gnarly side pony.
