I see that they are usually secured with a single crochet after the bobble, or a chain, in most patterns, but nothing is specified here.

You want to do 2 of those stitches in each one of the 6 stitches from round 1, so that you end up with 12 stitches. Don't work too tightly, bobble stitches are quite large and you won't be able to fit them in if you don't work a bit more loosely (and the hair won't fit on Hermione's head).LucyRavenscarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343160468638235491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554064124143906905.post-47296505912664635792023-11-24T20:13:35.560+00:002023-11-24T20:13:35.560+00:00*Rnd*RndAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554064124143906905.post-66636516646783669382023-11-24T20:13:12.075+00:002023-11-24T20:13:12.075+00:00Hi Lucy, I'm confused about how to do End 2 in...Hi Lucy, I'm confused about how to do End 2 in Hermione's hair, could you help please<br />Thank you very much<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554064124143906905.post-82505348447474508902023-07-29T00:35:30.005+01:002023-07-29T00:35:30.005+01:00No problem!

It is constructed very differently from the boys' hair, and is made up of a lot of bobble stitches, which are larger than single crochet, and the whole of round 5 makes all the long strands of hair at the bottom.
