Hairstyle! Will I be judged by teammates and coaches?

[GB_Gymnast]

So at the moment I wear a ponytail to the gym, I have always wear a ponytail, never ever anything else.

However, at the moment I am growing my hair out, and it is getting so long that I am frequently getting whipped in the face and eyes by it, which is very irritating, of course.

I want to wear it in a bun, messy or a mckayla maroney bun, or even just a normal neat bun.
What do you think I should do, and also I think I might be judged by my teammates and coaches, like they will think I am trying to be someone I'm not, or something silly like that, also my sister goes to my gym and is in my group, and I feel she would be like "you don't actually need that," and things, she can be very degrading.

I need help! <3

I have absolutely no idea why the gymnasts/coaches would judge you because you wore your hair in a bun instead of a ponytail. However, if they ask you, say your hair was too long for a ponytail so you wore a bun instead. Hope this helps

Well you can either follow me, of if I reply to your posts, it will show up in your alerts.

You click on the person's name, and at the top there will be a Follow button. Click that, and you will be following them.

Let me tell you a couple of things I did this year. I went in:
-combining a green leo with pink shorts
-wearing my light blue pyjama pants, the one with the cute teddy bears
-with this hairstyle: http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/school-girl-funny-hair-style-10663310.jpg
-wearing vampire teeths (don't get clever ideas, wearing vampire teeths to practice is a privilege of the coach who doesn't plan on flipping with them)
The gym should be the one place where you're only judged on your qualities as a coach/gymnast/teammate.
Who are they to tell you who you are and who you're not? The only person to decide that is you.
So if you feel like getting dreadlocks..get dreadlocks!

Ah! I got it! Thanks soooo much xx

dude, wear whatever you want. If people are being rude, just tell them "it's the new style".

I think that wearing your hair in a bun is a good idea because it will not get in your way. Just explain this to anybody who asks. In my club, we all have to wear our hair in a bun, even for practices.
