I have short hair, but it's just long enough to get in my face.  My hair flips over on thin ones, it slips out with loose ones, and it shoots off like a rubber band with tight ones...

My hair stays out of my face, I don't need to play with it, it's not too hot (I'm doing hot yoga anyway) and it DOESN'T FALL OFF.  Amen, Hallelujah.  Also. I've washed it at least 3 times and it comes out of the dryer perfect.
