Let's not be sexist about this!  Some blokes have got long hair too!  (And others have hair styles like those of a billiard ball.)

On the second style, that ends up looking if the hair hasn't been combed or brushed for a week, it's a lot simpler to just not brush or comb for a week.

If I did those dastardly deeds to my hair, I wouldn't have much left.

As the proud owner of a Billiard Ball hair style - it was dissapointing to not have this option featured in the selection shown :-(

Those styles look great but I would not be seen dead in helmet like that lol

But seriously I would not advocate putting anything into your hair that could potentially stab you in accident. Also I can't see how having a top knot (bun) would be comfy anyway let alone not safe your helmet should be snug to your head.

The scarf one again not really safe now is it??

I can see the point being made trying to get people to ride and if it helps someone get on a bike a ride but there is nothing wrong with a simple low pony tail or nothing in your hair in the first place...

Hehe. If I put all of my hair in a bun and put a helmet on top of it, the helmet would only protect the bun and none of my head!

I am a fan of simplicity - one long plait. Done.

Takes you an hour before a ride to have that simplicity Juz :)

Helmet, yes.  But where are the shoes?  (Slide 26.)

Shoes not compulsory, but definitely a "must-have" item of PPE.
