I am trying to grow out the hair on my neck so it could fit into my ponytail. For now I have to pin it up with about ten bobby pins & even that is not great.
I'm thinking there must be hair gels that I could try to sort of gook up the hair, but it needs to be something that will dry and not get my scarf or my shirt all greasy.
(I've heard some mothers use sugar water on their sons' payos. But doesnt that attract insects etc?)
Any ideas? Thanks!
ETA: I originally was asking Moms who gekriezel their sons' payos. I've gotten some good suggestions here but I edited the title because I realized that what I have to worry about is reacting to something!

If you wear a velvet headband you can pick up the hairs into your scarf

When my mother was a young mother she asked some elderly chasidish store owners what the secret was to keep the peyos so neatly . She used Dippity Doo but it wasn’t as perfect as she’d seen on other kids . One guy told her “tziker vasser “ which is sugar water and another answered “A bissele shpayachs “...a little bit of saliva. 😁

Disgusting.
And now you’re getting everyone on imamother believing that Chassidish mothers make the kids peyos with their saliva 😟
Dippity do gel is strong!

Not that it’s going to help OP, but my son’s straight peyos get permed every 6 months or so.

Garnier fructis
The trick is to do it on dry hair, not wet.

Regarding curling the payes: I sometimes use gel in addition to- curl the payes with a thin "straw"! Hold it in for 1 minute. It looks like a perm!
Regarding hair not sticking out from the back: I shave the bottom of the scalp a little- up to sheitel or snood. It just looks like a high pony. And yala- no hair ever sticking out!👍

I use sugar water for my son's peyos. Holds better than any gel I've tried.

Velvet headband sounds like an idea except in the summer I don't really want that extra layer: )
Now as to all these gels, dippity doo & garnier fructis etc, anyone know how they are for sensitive skin? That's another issue.... I guess I should inquire at Clinique if they have hypoallergenic hair spray!
Although I am picturing now trying to spray the back of my head... I think gel would be easier to use.

yup! sugar water & lemon juice work best ime. I try to stick to (no pun intended) the lemon as we had a lice infestation once (on my fresh peyos boy, & was clearly coming from cheder)
