Do you know how to make a proper topknot? That will help a lot.
Topknots shared by Linda Grimm and Maria Lelinho starring Rocky! Many Thanks!
After you make the topknot, you can add a bow. I always recommend bands as barrettes can be a choking hazard. Bands stay in better, too. If you do chose barrettes, make sure you watch her carefully until she is older and gets used to wearing bows.
