Ds's hair in front reaches down almost to his chin (ironically, his hair at the back of his head is much shorter) and is always getting into his eyes, nose, and mouth. The problem is, his hair is also very very fine and thin and none of the clips I tried, even the very tiniest little ones, will hold in his hair for more than a few minutes...and believe me, I tried loads - 11 different types, to be exact  . And they are a choking hazard besides, even though I watch him very carefully. The elastics bands hurt him and tear his hair out. Any other ideas?

I've done adorable pig tails, really half pig tails, for my son with very thin hair as well. Ouchless rubber bands should work fine if done properly. And you should only have to do it once a day, in the morning. The trick for me was to just cut them, or tear them in the evening and not pull them out, as that's what hurts the kid.

I use the colorful soft pony holders. They don't hurt and stay in place. A pack of about 100 costs 99 cents in Amazing Savings. As for choking, you really have to watch your kid that he doesn't put these things in his mouth.

the tiny ouchless ones work great. to take them out, instead of pulling it which hurts, I cut it with a nail scissor. its worth just throwing it out for the pain.

I tried the tiny ouchless elastics, I just never thought to cut them off instead of pulling. good idea! they come in packs of 100, so by the time we've disposed of 2 or 3 packs this way, hopefully his hair will be thick enough for clips...

put a yarmulke on him and pin back the hairs onto the yarmulke ... much more masculine and fixes any problem
