whenever i put my hair up in a ponytail, the top of my head has these really really short pieces of hair and they stick up. It looks really bad and weird. So is there any way i can prevent from these small hairs from sticking up? I use hair spray, but all it does is make my hair look oily, and it doesn't even work. Should i use gel?? I try to use a headband, but the headbands keep falling off my head. any suggestions??

also, BedHead products, any of them will keep your hair smoothe! [ luvbug555's advice column | Ask luvbug555 A Question ]

gel shouldnt make your hair look oily just wash it every night on the days you put your hair up!
