In June 2007 we finally got fed up with Eliza's ton of hair (it was always getting in her eyes and making it difficult to play) so we broke down and started putting in the effort to put pigtails in.

We've found endless amusement in what her hair will do - this time right out of the bath after "The Lipstick Incident" (doesn't she clean up well?). We twisted the pigtails so that at first they stood up and looked an awful lot like unicorn horns (well, that is, if unicorns weren't *uni* corns). Then they drooped sadly. But we still got a good chuckle out of it.

This is what happens when idle hands meet a longish beard and a little experience at braiding ...

The braids are staying in place without my having to wrap the ends.
