2. You Have To Choose Elastics Very Carefully

Small elastics? Don't even bother. Trying to fit a normal sized elastic that girls with straight hair use is a nightmare. It's inevitably going to snap the moment you get enough stretch going to get the goddamed thing around your hunk of hair, or it's going to go round once and fall out later on. You end up spending a fortune on mega massive elastics that feel like the hair equivalent of the straps on bras made for big boobed girls. It's not fair: why does your hair need taming so much? It's not a lion, it's just hair, like anyone elses. Just on a (much) larger scale.
