This mom needs hair bow help...post some pics!

Hello everyone!
Being the mom to awesome little boys is wonderful, but I am so excited about Emma and hair bows! I don't really know where to find them---or how to put them on correctly! I called my mom in OH when I was in Guatemala to ask exactly where the handband/ bow goes---Emma has so much hair! Emma isn't a big hair bow fan...and I only had her wear it for a few pictures!

(Also, if you are wiling to PM with some of the best places you hair bows---I would be so appreciative!)

Ok----BRING on your BEAUTIFUL GIRLS and their BEAUTIFUL BOWS!

I will try to attach a few pictures. For a wee baby, I use tiny little infant snap clips...I simply pull comb her hair to the side and I attach the clip...put the clip on the opposite side of her part. I will PM you with a source of clips. God bless.

Here are a few of my little love in her bows...I LOVE bows. Mostly, I get them off of a very popular online auction site. But, I'll also pm you with a couple of websites that I like, too.

I get all my bows from one person. I love them. They are very well made and stay in ANY hair. She is the sweetest person. She sells on Ebay and her prices are SO cheap ( I think). Here are some pictures of Mikayla wearing her bows. She has WAY too much hair for a hairband.

I have always found ebay to be the best place...lots of different vendors to choose from, lots of 'bow collections' and very reasonably priced compared to buying them in a store!

We found that putting in a rubber band first really helps the bow stay in the hair. You can buy clear rubber bands that come out easily.

I highly recommend the clippies. You pinch them on one end and they open at the other sort of like a clothes pin.

Enjoy!!!

I LOVE bows, so I have lots of bow pics of Gabriella. I have found that bows that have ribbon covering one side of the clip do not slip out as easily. It also helps to pull the hair up with clear rubberbands and then put the bows over it. Good luck!!
