Nov 10, 2014 How to keep a straight face while lying? For some, not hard enough. Training yourself to exhibit a placid exterior, when you’re feeling angry or sad, or for that matter – silly? Keeping that straight face through a poker game, a critical conversation, a negotiation – no.
Yeah, basically what the title says. ;-)
I have about BSL length, very thick, slightly wavy (but not in a controlled wavy way, more like its just not straight and likes to do its own thing LOL) hair. I like wearing it down best because wearing it up for any length of time tends to get uncomfortable, but whenever I'm doing something where I have to look down, it all flops across my face! I also have side-swept bangs that are just below chin-length at the shortest--I'm growing them longer so they'll stay back better but I need bangs to cover my hiiiiiigh forehead.
Any ideas for things I can do to prevent this, but still keep it down? So far, I've found that hippie headbands work pretty well (like the kind that goes around your forehead). Thanks lovlies!
