Long Hair ideas

i need some inspiration.

Currently have the longest hair i've had in YEARS, its bra strap kind of length, all one length, side parting.

Now, i don't want to go shorter, because i'm a low maintenance, boho waves, wash and go kinda person.. at most i blow dry it upside down and get on with my day.

But.. at home, it lives in either a messy bun, or a side plait, and i'm well.. bored.

What do you guys DO with your long hair?

Also, if anyone has any links to fabulous hair accessory sites, I would welcome those enthusiastically...

Placemarking for ideas as I am similar. I like a 'sides up, down at the back' arrangement some days as my fine hair drives me mad otherwise. I have a long fringe so pinning that up in a quiff and the rest in a pony is a different sort of look, again it gets it out of my way. I like but can't get on with headbands. They either won't stay in, give me a headache or conflict with my glasses/sunglasses.
Pinterest is good for ideas, OK, some a bit too elaborate but some are doable.

My hair is quite long, it reaches my bellybutton now. I use lots of scarves, headbands and silk scrunchies. Clips/pretty Bobby pins and tiny elastics come in handy too. I do lots of twists and very simple braids. Twisted crowns, sleek high ponies, half up messy buns, space buns.. Dead easy stuff that stops my hair from being damaged in the same places by doing the same styles every single day.

I have hair down to my waist and use a lot of this sort of double comb

I twist it into a rope like braid and let it down from my turret window if I fancy a thorough rogering from a a passing prince.
