I don't have any advice or suggestions, but I just wanted to say that your hair I gorgeous - if my hair looked like that I would never wear it up. Way to awesome to try and constrain!
ETA: okay, maybe one question/suggestion. If you are looking for a protective style to help with growth, have you tried braids or twists? Not really an updo, but might help limit breakage if the goal is to grow your hair out.
