Zip Ties as a hair tie. Quite possibly the cutest hair accessory ever. All she would need then are 1714's FIRST Earrings and 3D printed clothes.

i hit my head a whole bunch of times on the pyrimid, but first doesnt like it when you wear your safety glasses on your forehead as "saftey glasses only proetect you when you wear them over your eyes."
