"Ok, now we are ready to attach the hair that you have. If you have any scraps on material you can always knot those in when you do these and what you want to do is have the knot on the outside of the head. So that when you sew that knot will never slide through and you can just either just do them on the sides or you'll have kind of pig tail looks or you can do it all the way around. Which I usually like I think it looks a lot less creepy that way but you just go ahead and fill then in all the way you can alternate colors or you can put in scraps of material now just make sure you knot them at the top so they don't slide out. Ok, I like my dolls head of hair to be nice and full so I am going to go ahead and get a bunch more of these ready and make sure I have them all pinned in where they need to go and all facing in. You always want to have the hair facing in all the way to the middle. Make sure this is your choice or your chance to get it good and full because if you have lots of big gaps in between it s going to kook kind of freaky. So that?s how you pin in the hair."
