I used to take Max's out before bedtime. Letting his hair down and rubbing his head was the fastest way to put him to sleep. Now that his hair is really long, I have to leave it in all night. Same with Teddy, otherwise they would wake up with hair in their mouths, noses, and eyes.
We use the tiny scrunchies and the topknots are pretty loose. With Max's eye problems, I have been using the tiny rubber bands to make pigtails and I leave them in all night. The hair is still loose enough not to harm his skin.
