FTR, I don't put my hair up on a ponytail - or didn't, I do now sometimes. A swinging ponytail is not controlled enough...

I usually roll it up with a big clip, or bobby pins, if I want to be really together. I feel like it holds up my outer shell of confidence. It also prevents me from playing with my hair. It took a while before I was comfortable enough to show the me who plays with her hair and hides behind it.
