megan_marie15 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Problem with shoving ponytail into shako: tends to actually hurt to have the pressure of Shako upon ponytail upon back of skull. When you are in a shako for an hour, especially, for example, in a parade, it can really start hurting. When in drum corps, why put yourself through extra pain? Cut the hair as short as you can; keeps you cooler during summer, and makes showers quicker. Long hair = sign of own vanity. I agree that it's painful. A bun under an aussie with the brim below or right at your eyebrows makes for some intense headaches. But short hair makes for it's own sticky situations. In windy conditions, it's hard to get it to lay flat. And you have to cut your hair very often to keep it at the right length. I just personally think long hair slicked back is easier to manage then short hair that doesn't really fit in a hairtie but doesn't look great down either. Personal preference.

Iplaytimpani Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I'm a long haired pit kid. While at Kiwanis I was allowed to do what the girls do which was have long hair but it had to be heavily producted and pulled back very tight in a pony tail. At my current corps, I will have to cut my hair. Just part of the gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
