I tried those and they seem to be better but still have a tendency to move. When I first had the bandage, I used the cloth headband because it was wide but then while i was teaching a spin class at the gym, it slid a little and I spent the rest of the class silently freaking out that they could see my giant bandage!JoAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548653968066971599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7256615271055737327.post-10198457853158580272015-02-15T21:18:08.212-05:002015-02-15T21:18:08.212-05:00I was just about to write exactly what Anja did!

You can do it.

The problem is that if the headband or scarf were to come off, there's a shocking swath of no hair that no child is prepared to see and I can't scar them like that! So, I start to feel it slip and then it's all I can think about and then I want to keep touching it until I can get to a mirror. It's so ridiculous. If it were summer, I could just wear a hat and not worry but because I'm in front of kids all day, I worry about these things!JoAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548653968066971599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7256615271055737327.post-21585916288816191832015-02-15T08:59:42.256-05:002015-02-15T08:59:42.256-05:00Sounds like you need to try out Triangle Paper for...Sounds like you need to try out Triangle Paper for those HST's -- no marking necessary and I always get consistent results.

Some people have the skulls for it and some don't : P As for the heart - love it! And yes, you did take on a big one. It'll look great when it's done. Glad you were tipped off about how to cut 4 at a time - so much faster! (Scarfs? What about a scarf for a while until the hair grows out?
