| Hair bands for top knot What do you guys with little girls use to keep the top knot up? I've been using plain black rubber bands and have recently noticed a lot of breakage in her hair. The main front is pretty long and stays in her eyes if I don't keep it up but I don't really want to put it up because of the breakage. If I use something soft she'll just rub it out lol. |

| As you said, i've either found ones that hold the hair, but cause breakage; or they don't cause breakage, but dont hold the hair well and fall out. My solution is to use ones that hold the hair, but take them out every evening before bed, and often times dont use them at all or use them looser when Im home to supervise.

| At my dollar tree they sell ones that are less rubbery/more plasticy (I know I really can't think of a better description) and they work great! Less breakage and a pretty good hold. |

| We use the small cloth scrunchies - they are easier on the hair. Cali is 6 years old, has a long top knot, and no breakage. At night I loosen it significantly, then put new one on in the morning. I get them in the children's department at places like target or Walmart or often at dollar tree type places. There are also some folks here on YT who sell the small scrunchies.
