They should make a tutu instead.

My daughter once thought it would be fun to apply a battery operated Thomas the Tank Engine to her scalp.   Fortunately for her, BRIO's Thomas has a reverse gear, which turned out to be truly useful.

But on the plus side, it's weightless. True, it does fill the entire volume of your hair with an infinitely fine, infinitely tangled wire. But on the plus side, it’s weightless.
