Athletic Hair Styles - Types & Ideas

Double braids - work well with medium to longer hair lengths as they both keep the hair out of the face and off of the neck. Using a comb, trace a straight part down the back of the head and protected one of the two sections with an elastic band. Start braiding by separating the remaining part of hair into three equal sections. Braid hair by alternately pulling each of the outside sections of hair toward the center, over the center part. Continue braiding hair pending only an inch or two remains at the bottom of the braid. Fasten the end with an elastic hair band and repeat for the second braid. For best results, braid hair while it is still moist from the shower unless sporting events are during cold winter months. (Consider doing this same style with French braids if you know how.) Using stretchy headbands, pull hair back from forehead and tie it up into a elevate ponytail for the best and easiest off the neck, out-of-the-eyes style. Elastic bands work best for ponytails because synthetic and metal clips can sometimes reason injure if sporting accidents occur.

Mini-braid mania – Using little rubber bands made mainly for hair, braid bangs or front part of hair split into tiny sections, one by one. Depending on hair's extent and personal preferences, braid one or two rows and attach the rest back into a ponytail. For those with much time on their hands or a whole bunch of friends to help out, braid the whole head! If desired, use hairspray or gel to strengthen the hold. Think using an plastic headband or other alternative to keep braids against the top of your head and off of your face.

Pre-wrap, also known as under wrap, traditionally serves as a soft and cozy barrier between athletic tape and the athlete's skin when a trainer tapes up his or her injuries. It is designed to keep the tape from chafing and sticking to the athlete's skin. For years if not decades, athletes have been swiping strips of pre-wrap and using them as headbands to keep their hair out of their eyes and off their faces while playing sports. College athletes, teenager athletes, football players, softball players, field hockey players, runners and just about any female athletes around pleasure the seem and sense of pre-wrap in their hair before, during and after an athletic incidence.

Pre-wrap is colorful, simple to utilize, inexpensive, and best of all, it works. Foamy and stretchy, the pre-wrap elemental sticks to itself, which means it doesn't slip like normal headbands. This makes it ideal for use as low-cost, versatile headband. You can buy pre-wrap at most sporting goods stores and online. Pre-wrap is sold in rolls for about $2 or $3, where just one roll can associate to 50 or additional headbands! Most athletic leagues forbid the utilize of hair accessories with the exclusion of flexible ponytail holders. Many leagues, however, permit the employ of pre-wrap.

Roll Over Your Expertise to the Next Good Thing

Has the beauty of Autumn's gold visited your area yet! It's glorious where I live. I've got an excellent idea to share with you, and it'll be particularly valuable if you are thinking of a job change.

This past weekend I toured beautiful vineyards in the Walla Walla wine country. For those of you unfamiliar with this lush region in Washington state, it produces such wines as L'Ecole, Woodward Canyon, Pepper Bridge, Three Rivers and Seven Hills. All vineyards have a backdrop of the Blue Mountains.

We had a rare opportunity to meet the winemaker at Walla Walla's most opulent winery. He was not what I imagined a winemaker to be—elderly, short, and stout with a red nose. He was young, athletic, toned and he enthusiastically demonstrated a love for his craft and for life.

I questioned him about whether winemaking had been in his family as a career. Another surprise! He told me that in the past, he'd worked for Nordstrom as a corporate purchasing agent. The next question was obvious. "How did you get here from there?"

As with many individuals wishing to make a change, he woke up one morning and decided he wanted more. He was not unhappy with his profession or place of residence. He was accomplished, respected and well-compensated.

A person doesn't have to be unhappy to seek out more in life. They just have to be curious, have that undeniable inner inkling, and the drive to make it happen.

Where most of us get held up is with the 'what ifs', 'how's' and 'what will people think if I fail.' We allow old tapes of 'but this is all I know' to hold us back. You recognize it as much as I do: your skills are at a high level and you haven't even thought of how else they might be used.

I love it when an executive tells me: "All I know is this product. I don't want to go back to school, but how can I transfer this knowledge into a more intriguing profession?"

I then have them list the expertise developed in working with this specific product and ask: "What proficiencies do you have that could be valuable in an entirely different industry than your current position?" This time, they are the ones who are surprised.

The Nordstrom corporate buyer decided that the life he wanted for his family was in the Walla Walla Valley Appellation. And what skills was he able to transfer? Stop reading for a moment, close your eyes and think about it. What does each vineyard really require?

That's right. It was his Sales and Marketing expertise. Our storyteller made a win-win bargain with the winemaker. If this winemaker would teach him to make wine, then the former buyer would teach the winemaker to market and sell it. Brilliant!

This week think of your experience. What expertise have you developed that are now transferable skills? You don't have to plan a major life change to appreciate this new knowledge. It's simply another tool in your toolbox that can be pulled out as is needed. Enjoy your discoveries and have a superb week.
