Supplies:

1. Scissors

2. Pipe Cleaner

3. Flowers or other embellishments (if you so choose)

 

 

 

Step 1:

Fold the pipe cleaner in half,

then place the hair between it, as shown below.

Try to get all the little ends in there (in other words... better than I've done in this pic -_-;; )

 

 

 

Step 2:

Twist the side of the pipe cleaner with the fold into a tight loop.

 

 

 

Step 3:

Twist the other side of the pipe cleaner so it holds the hair tight.

 

 

Step 4:

Roll the pipe cleaner upward.

aveuch says it's important to fold upward (so that the pipe cleaner is rolled into the hair, not towards the neck), that way if your doll has layered hair, it hides the layers.

 

 

 

Step 5:

Fold the pipe cleaner that the hair is wrapped around in half, creating a loop.

Twist ends together.

 

 

 

 

Step 6:

Trim off the extra long ends of the pipe cleaner.

 

 

 

Step 7:

Now that you've trimmed off the excess, tuck the ends of the pipe cleaner into the hair.

Add embellishments if you so choose (I did not for this one), and you're done!
