Mon, March 24, 2008 - 1:08 PMhair clips?
these outta work

and for bigger (heavier) accessories, i'd use either this type (i have one with teeth, holds well)

or this kind

if that doesn't work....
a trick that generally does is, make little braids with your hair, and stick the hair pins through the base of the braids. they hold better (also valid with longer hair ;)
speaking of braids, african braids (the kind of braid that's tight against the head, like this safihairbraiding.com/images/...ding.jpg ) can be very good to create the support to fix hair clips into. and doesnt require especially long hair to do ;)
hope this helps!

Mon, March 24, 2008 - 1:19 PMsome fun ideas in the short belly hair tribe. I have short hair too and as you can see in some pictures I just posted I can cram some quality things up there. But the front is long enough to do my own twisty things in it as well. The biggest thing for me is one dirty hair. Don't wash it that day and if you do and make sure you work out or something before you plan to get to putting all the stuff in ( I did that but my leave in conditioner for treated hair is way better than I gave it credit for... yeah the hair stuff stayed but the sword didn't!)
Anyway... little pigtails. If you can make a mini pigtail then you can attach almost anything to your head. That annnnnd lots of hair spray/wax. So between the clips, head bands if you wear them and the mini pigtails and the right set attachment (you have to play with that on your own) you should be able to work something out. =) Yeah for short hair!
