I read this somewhere and it works GREAT. Make a little topknot towards the eyes...a little more forward and down than you want the final thing. Secure with a rubber band. Slip the bow band over this...you don't have to twist these, as they are pretty small bands, usually, and aren't functional to hold the topknot in this instance. Then pull that ponytail into another ponytail/topknot using some hair farther back on the head. This "traps" the bow! It's straight! You don't have to worry about tightening bow bands and getting the bow all off center. The final topknot is in the right spot. It works great! It also allows you to get some of the shorter hairs toward the nose.

YEAH!!!
