Hellobee Boards

E was obsessed with pulling them out for awhile, and then a few months later, started wanting them in her hair. Tries to put headbands and bows in, etc. Puts them on her daddy....and now she has no problem wearing them. She's 21 months now

@autumnlove: I do stuff like braid it when she's sitting in my lap, distracted with a puzzle or book. Today she had dual french braids with little white bows at the bottom!!

@blackbird: We had dual french braids with pink bows today! She watched Curious George while I did it. lol. Great minds.

Yep, just keep at it. How old is your LO? Mine went through stages. I would put them in until she took them out. Once she got sick of the headbands more and more often, and her hair was longer, I started putting in a little pony in the front... hard to describe but kind of like a side part and clipping your hair back, except making it a pony. I would then often clip a bow to that tiny pony so it looked like her hair was clipped back, but it was more secure. She also seems to not notice the little hair elastics as much at all, and that helped ease her into it. I hope I described that well... it's hard! But yeah, just keep at it. If you quit doing it because of a stage, when you start to try again she will want no part of it!

olive does not like headbands (she doesn't like tiaras either), but she is fine with hair clips and always has been. i think they grow into it more as they get older.

@blackbird: gotta try with LO 2!
