hair longer than 3”
hairspray is optional, but useful for shorter hair
a small hat with a comb like one of these

If you have shorter hair, it helps if you use a fair amount of hairspray. Have your tiny hat ready. If it doesn't have a comb you will need to sew one in.

If you wear your hair going back, you want the comb to go forward, if you wear your hair going forward you will push the comb into your hair going back.

Hold your hair down behind the comb with your left hand, hold the comb on the hat with your right hand. Hold the teeth of the comb toward your scalp at an angle. If you are left handed you might reverse hands on this step.

Push the comb slowly into the hair, the shape of the teeth of the comb will hold the hair.

You may have to practice putting in the comb/hat a few times before you get the hang of it. Practice in front of the mirror. When it is in right it will feel snug and secure for hours.

We like to wear our tiny hats more to the front over the forehead.
