HELP!

So I admit it - my hair has no real style anymore.  If I knew what to do with it, I would at this point.  This morning I tried first to put it back in a cute low side pony tail, then I had little frizzies all around due to this humidity.  Then I considered a full pony - worse.  Tried letting it down - yuck.  Sides -up?  Too expected.  Finally just threw on a headband and left.

I'm getting ready to book a haircut as it is time!  I'll be getting it darkened (dark brown (level 3/4) for those who know).  I have quite a bit of hair, it is what I'd call wavy - but not predictable wavy. 

Your job is to find me a picture suggestion that will (hopefully) accomodate my issues (above) as well as:

• doesn't take too much time (I'm not really into straightening as it takes me too long)
• allows for a couple of options
• isn't on the "short" side

Do you accept your challenge?  HELP!
