Hi Lezlee,
Thank you very much for taking the time to offer your help for style suggestions. I appreciate it very much.
Updos are tricky styles and if you want to know a secret, they drive me the nuttiest of anything related to hair. Why? Because everyone always wants something "different, something noone else ever has worn".
OK. Big sigh. Well this is almost impossible because bottom line, there are some basic styles that can be changed around but there are a finite number of updos that can be done. The "new and never seen" comes from adding funky touches like new hair jewelry, glitter, floating jewels, hair sequins, color, tiny spikes, shine, texture, etc. That is where the new and edgey comes in. Also, making updos out of hair that is not naturally thought of as appropriate for that look is how you do something different.
The style that you are referring to can indeed be worn by someone with short to shoulder length hair. It can also be worn by someone with mid-back length hair. With some modifications it can be worn by people with super long hair.
Which is another topic. Any age, any sex, any hair length can wear most any style. Yes, a super short bob can not wear an updo like Jennifer Aniston wore with the tied sections. However, I have even seen people with short to medium hair pull that look off with just tiny sections of hair.
It is impossible for me to show every style in every length of hair so I do encourage people to experiment and try all sorts of variations of a style. If I post styles for long hair, people with short hair and medium hair write and ask me for styles for their hair length when in reality, styles can be modified to suit the length and texture of just about any hair.
The style you referenced question can definitely be modified for short hair.
The key as you said, is to use very small or tiny amounts of hair. The style I suspect you are referencing is the two at the end where the ponytail is brushed up from the bottom and over the crown. Y
es, that style could be worn, even in a modified way, by someone with medium or shorter hair. They could accomplish a modified look by using all their hair "up" to the crown and then putting the hair into a lot of little or tiny tails. They could also gel the hair so that even if it did not go into an actual ponytail, they could give the impression of faux tails.
Bottom line, thank you for your posts. The purpose of HairTalk is for everyone to fell comfortable to express their opinions and provide their own brand of feedback.
I hope noone ever rules out a style because they think it is for longer or shorter hair or whatever type of hair. Rachel Leigh Cook has thin, fine hair and when it was on the shorter side in a bob I actually saw her wear it in a faux French twist. It looked great. Yet it was not a French twist that a person with longer hair could have pulled off. Yet it was stunning. Well done and creative.
I guess keeping an open mind, being creative and looking for ways to try new ideas with your hair is the most important thing.
Best wishes & Happy Holidays.

Try putting your hair into small pontails in equal sections throughout your hair. Then twist each ponytail until it rolls in on itself and pin into place. This is a very trending look on the catwalk today.
The other alternative is to section the front of the hair from ear to ear clip the back section out of the way. Then divide the front section into 5 equals parts. Twist these sections back leaving the ends free and pin to the crown. With the free ends back comb softly and mist with a little hair spray. The back section that is now left straight can either be softly curled with a heated wand or left alone. This is a very funky look and for added interest put some hair jewels or tiny flowers into the front section. %( B % A`a` 0`` $
