My daughter is 19 months and her hair is always in her face. She'll tolerate elastics (for a bit, til she notices them) but really hates clips for some reason. We use the little terry cloth elastics, I don't know where to buy more without buying a giant package that includes all those teeny elastic-elastics. Haha.
She likes to take the terry elastic out and chew it like gum. Ugh. I usually wait til we reach our destination to do her hair for that reason.

My daughter will keep in the tiny elastics (she has really thin/fine hair) and most barrettes and small bows. She won't wear headbands though and I've never tried huge bows.

My littlest one also tolerates hair things until she notices them - I've had success with the felt lined clips and velcro hair things - they're literally pieces of velcro (the hook side) that are cut in cute shapes- you just pull the hair away from the face and push the velcro on top to hold the hair.

Yes! When we first started putting hair clips on, she didn't like them so I kept saying they're pretty so now she calls them pretty!

Currently, yes, and I'm thrilled about it! She wouldn't tolerate anything for a long time, so I thought she might never be a bow girl. Right now she likes to pick out her own bows for wearing around the house (I switch it out for something that matches if we're leaving the house), and she likes to choose between one pony or two pigtails. I'm glad she's finally come around on hair things because her bangs are long enough that they hang in her eyes if she doesn't have a clip or pony.

She keeps elastics in but doesn't love getting them put in. She is hit or miss with bows right now but if I'm persistent enough she typically will so I tend to save those for times where I actually care.

DD doesn't like headbands but doesn't mind hair ties and clips. Sometimes she tries to take out the clips, but I think it is because they aren't securely fastened in her hair. Once I fix it she is usually alright.

Yes, she will keep the tiny elastics in and also clippy bows if I sneak them in quickly
