I posted to Tumblr about my hair-doing woes and now well-meaning people who do not understand that I can do a braid and a bun but cannot do anything to create volume around my face are trying to help me and it's so stressful.

Actually I have found that I can do a little backcombing to make little pomp-things at the sides but I cannot seem to achieve the same effect on top.

People with easy hair to work with will never understand the struggles of those of us with difficult hair that resists any attempt at volume.

Meagre investigation has revealed using those dollar store brown net-mesh hair bun things can be turned into support for bangs, rolls, and assorted bumps. If that is at all helpful information.

So awkward! I find that the way my hair grows (and is usually parted) makes it difficult to get top volume also. I have no solutions, but wish you luck!
