08. Is hair management a problem? *(response: William R. Pogue) One particular problem experienced by women is managing their hair. (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
Many crop their hair short before flight; some roll it into a bun during flight, and I have seen video showing how a large bushy hairdo can get in the way of other astronauts. And, there is always the possibility of getting hair snagged on equipment.
