Knotty Hair Headband

Today I wanted to do try a hair headband on Khari. I don't know how to cornrow so I did four pull-throughs (or knots whatever you want to call them). I guess you could do the pull-throughs then connect them, but the way I did it I think it allowed for the pull-throughs to show better. (I tried the other way first, but I think this looks cuter.) I made the first part on the right side of her head then did a pull-through ponytail. I took the hair from that part and added it to the next section BEFORE I did the pull-through ponytail and repeated that process for the last two sections. I wanted to leave her bangs out because I thought it would look a little funky to include that front part in the headband as her front hairline is so thin, but they are longer than I thought and it looked even weirder out as they are so curly so I just attached them to the last part and attemted to clip them out of the way. (I'm sure this clip will be long gone by the time I get off work!) As you can see I'm not the best parter in the world and it's not getting any easier as she gets older because she fidgets even more! The highchair/food trick isn't really working anymore. I think the next time I do this I won't make the parts so long (going towards the back).
