Default Seatbelt tangle

Okay, need help. My 5 year old pulled the driver side rear belt all the way out, engaging the locking mechanism, and looped it over the headrest. Now I can't get enough slack to lift the the seatbelt back over the headrest. Anyone got a solution I can use?

Same thing has happened to me several times. Just remove the headrest. No tools required.

the condom? Make her take it off.


Just kidding like the other guy said remove the headrest- lift it all the way up and push in on the retaining button-it's on the opposite post as the release button.
