After looking at both the Nat'l Fed and NCAA books, I'd have to agree with Bob that ribbons are not legal, since they would appear to fall in the category of decorations. The high school book does add the statement, "Rubber/cloth (elastic) bands may be used to control hair," which makes it a bit easier to say that ribbons don't count, but the NCAA book omits that statement. Still, there certainly is nothing in there that says they ARE legal now, so seems that the ruling would be they are still IL-legal.
