LOL, oh yeah...it's worse then doing our hair.
I have cut Zhoie's off twice and still grew it back. Let me tell you...it is very hard to get her topknot hair grown out....takes forever with my girl.
Zhoie doesn't bother hers unless I get it in to tight, then she will try to rub her head. So, I take a rattail comb, loosen it and we are good to go. However, she is not real fond of bows, so we only wear those when we go out. She a band kinda girl
I know there is lots of boys that wear topknots and bows....I love it!
