This is spinoff of "dumb gauntlet question" thread, which wasn't a dumb question at all, but anyway made me think again about how to "balance" costuming, this time it's hair. My hair is baby fine almost to shoulders, permed curly (or it would be limp and plastered to my head after five minutes of dance) but I still need to wear either a half fall as a ponytail or a 3/4 fall when in costume to "balance" body in beaded bedlah. The length of "fall" really depends on what costume I'm using and they work great. Sometimes, though ,it's nice NOT to wear the fall, gets hot if weather turns hot so I usually then wear REALLLY big and long earrings.

Does anyone out there have tips on using jeweled combs in hair for even more "balance" when not wearing my falls and how do you make those combs stay in hair?(again, I have very fine hair.
