Some Tips For Best Result
1.	Don't put your HairSock on wet hair. It will work in the reverse and make an awful mess. Almost like a huge dred-lock. I'm not sure why this happens, but for best results you should only wear your HairSock on dry, freshly brushed hair.
2.	For high wind sports such as riding a motorcycle, in a convertible car, boat, etc., make sure the HairSock is the same length as your hair. If the HairSock is longer than your hair, the extra fabric is taken by the wind and will pull your HairSock off. If it is too short, the ends of your hair will be unprotected and are subject to wind damage and snarling.
3.	To determine what length HairSock you will need, measure your hair from where you wear your elastic to the end of your pony tail. HairSocks are sold in different lengths beginning with 4 inches an continuing every 2 inches to as long as your hair needs. (ie: 6 inch, 8 inch, 10 inch, 12 inch, etc.) No hair is too long. HairSocks can be made by special order.
4.	Extra thick hair is another consideration. If your pony tail is thicker 1 1/4 inch in diameter (about the same as the cap from a plastic gallon milk jug) you would need to special order.
5.	Many people like to wear HairSocks for fashion. They have many so they will have them to match outfits or moods. It is very pretty to have a HairSock on with 2 or 3 inches of hair peeking out the bottom. You would want to protect your hair if you were working or riding a bike, but fashion has it's own place in the world of HairSocks.
6.	If you tend to wear your hair in a high ponytail, you may want to put an elastic in your hair first. The weight of the HairSock tends to pull them loose if they are up high. Pony tails worn at the neck do not need any additional support. The elastic draw string pulled as tight as you can get it will hold the HairSock snuggly in place.
