A new hair style for something with thick and unruly hair?

I have really thick hair, and so every day I pull it up along with a head band to add it more reinforcement. My mother believes strongly in women with long hair so I can't cut it. What other things can I do with it?A new hair style for something with thick and unruly hair?
You could always try straightening it if thats a possibility for you, it looks great with long thick hair. If not, you can get a product called Ringlet 07 by Redken, you just put it in your hair after a shower, scrunch it up, and it acts as both a curling agent and gel, because it keeps it contained.

Also, long ponytails are cute, so if you have bangs, you can just pull it up in a loose ponytail with a ribbon.A new hair style for something with thick and unruly hair?
