Hey tennis players out there just wondering if you have long hair
if you do yo do any thing fancy to it when you play tennis?, tie it?, were a bandana? Cap backwards?

I play with a cap backwards or make my hairs like Nalbandian.

i hav long hair as well, i can quite tie it in a ponytail yet (it makes a pretty small tail lol) i wear a bandana like moya. i find it the best. when the sun is strong ill wear a cap and if that messes up my serve too much, ill switch it backwards.

now, I REALLY have long hair for a male tennis player. I tie it in a bun inthe back and wear a hat. The 'bun' goes through the hole in the back. Hmm....maybe I should post a pic. If I just tie it back it whips me in the face when i play

Ferderer uses those bobby pins in his hair.

I have long hair, I wear a cap backwards and kind of push it back, somewhat like Hewitt.

Just curious, how long did it take you to grow out your hair?

James Brown · 09-14-2004, 08:42 PM

long time brian, my hair grows really freaking fast and it didnt do much. ive been growing mine since november last year, im pretty much at federer level , like i said tho, cant do a full ponytail yet. id compare it to something close to fish's. from the other people ive talked to, usually a year and a half ish. believe me though, its annoying as hell while its growing. when u cant keep it behind your ears and it flops in your face is the worst part :>

technically it's not really long but since i used to shave my head, my afro is getting to be long. i wish i can put it back in a tail of sorts, but for now i have to use the backwards cap and readjust it after every point...boo!

Yes, I tried and got as far as my chin before hacking it off, but that was 5 years ago when it was becoming a sin to have anything but a Ricky Martin haircut. I gave in to La vida loca. Now I have nothing to show for it.

Wow so is your afro like Ben Wallace of the Detroit Pistons?

I have really long hair, its straight but its curls up on the sides and in the back. I haven't cut it since may, and that was only a light trim. I wear a headband sometimes, but for the most part a hat. (and i wear it in my eyes, so i can't see much, but not when i'm playing tennis). i love long hair!

Yikes! My tennis-playing daughter spends less time worrying about her hair.

@wright · 10-20-2004, 06:10 AM

Does anyone use a hairdini to create cute ponytails?

topspin · 10-20-2004, 02:05 PM

It gets tucked up into my hat.

serveboy · 10-21-2004, 11:27 PM

I also have long hair. I use a tiara to hold it back. Kind of the like the one Clement uses but it's not shiny. It's a dull piece of plastic. Very uninstrusive.

James Brown · 10-22-2004, 03:08 PM
