What's the best way to wear your hair if it's thicker closer to the roots and thin at the

My hair is medium length and i can't find a way to wear it besides up in a pony tail. When i wear it down it poofs out no matter what i do.

What's the best way to wear your hair if it's thicker closer to the roots and thin at the bottom?

well my hair is medium length and i either put it in a pony tail real neatly with a hair piece or some track weave (sort of like queen latifahs iin briingin down the house) but if u need a perm dont do this!!! or i either straighten it and have my bangs!!
