I hate giant bows. I HATE them.

I like them. Soon enough she will be too old to wear them.

Unless they make a circa 80s comeback with stirrup leggings, glitter acid wash jean jackets and Blossom hats.

What is with the huge, tacky bows cheerleaders wear? What's the purpose? Why not just a cute bow over the ponytail, not some huge, gaudy thing on the top of their head? I just.don't.get.it.

Those sorts of things look better in competition. They all flick their heads at the same angle at the same time- huge bows give it more impact.

You don't know what I put on my kid. We do shop at Target and JC Penny's because that's what we can afford. Congrats on being upper class?

Target sells hair bows...

My girls don’t have stringy hair. Ok, fine, maybe they arent looking perfect every day. They sometimes wear bows, small and gigantic.

You need anger mgmt if bows upset u to this level. Likely, better fashion overall. I bet you’re the sheeple in white jeans and blue blouse. Look in the mirror wrinkle sun face.

Clue: white jeans out.

A hair bow on a little girl is a sign of class. No bow equals no class.

Oh man. I live in Georgia and see this a lot. Usually very religious, conservative, lower SES families. The higher the bow the closer to God!

Bows ARE very frumpy. It’s trying just enough but they still look (almost) universally ugly on kids.

I'm from NJ and rarely see them there unless they are part of cheer/dance costumes, but I see them everywhere when I visit family in rural Tennessee!

I bought my daughter one at CVS, rainbow for pride.

Good lord, this thread is old. But still true. I also hate big bows. My ILs in the south and Midwest love them and their kids look stupid.

They just look tacky though.

I agree 100%. Babies are already cute. Why some feel the need to treat them like xmas trees with those garish bows, I'll never know. All my friends with baby girls have them though. Such a shame.

I'm from NYC, have 2 boys. I'm on page 6 and haven't been able to understand. I need to see a picture of the object.

Big bows are so cute! Especially with little girls in bishops collar smocked dresses. DMV area mom
