It is very tricky, in fact I'd even say almost impossible to buy elastic hair ties without any kind of plastic! I don't just mean the mix of non-recyclable synthetic materials usually used to make them, but also the packaging - be it a plastic wrapper, a plastic header card or a cable tie....
Environmentally-responsible, ridiculously comfy, non-pulling hair elastics made in California by Kooshoo, an ethical small family business. They're strong enough for thick hair, soft enough to not cause hair tie headaches, creaseless and made from 100% biodegradable materials. They also fit neatly on your wrist as a cute bracelet!
Two years were spent researching the best hair ties on the market to understand where they succeeded and where they failed. After countless prototypes, these hairties were born and are now Kooshoo's best seller.
Pack Size: You will receive 5 hair ties per pack. One size fits all.
