The one problem with the braid idea (which I've tossed around for one my fics) is that wouldn't it become unraveled during the course of a rescue, especially one dealing with mud, or high winds, or fire, or falling debris, or a fistfight, or some such thing.
The pocket is an interesting idea, but I can't see her leaving her hair really long. Wouldn't it get caught in stuff? "Superwoman was on the way to rescue today, when her hair got tangled up in some trees in the Amazon..." This would explain why the writers / producer / actress
decided to cut Lois' hair.
