I asked the seller about the scarf/hair problem and her reply was: "Your question about the head decoration is not so easy - but I would say that the version in blue [bluish tint] is closer to the actual idea. It does seem to be a scarf like piece of fabric drapped around the head. What one does not see in the painted versions is that a ribbon is also wrapped around the head." Thanks for that, Biri!
