Burlybands Elastic Hair Ties No Damage for Thick Hair, Dark Gray 8 Pack

I'm so stoked on these hair ties and so grateful I found them and took a chance on pricey ties! I have very straight hair, every few months I get my hair thinned out with a trim otherwise it's too heavy. I have to have my hair out and away from my face for work (healthcare). Over the years I've tried so many hair ties and nothing stays in place, they all slip down quickly, if they're grippy they break your hair (was called out by my hair stylist on that one!) Or as you've probably experienced, they hold maybe for a day and then become so stretched out they're worthless. All this to say, I've tried it all in my 20+yr search. Anyway, these hair ties are magic. If I could compare them to anything it would be as if it were a portion of a compression sock? They're wide but roll up on itself. Once you put it in place it does.not.move. I have to admit, there's a learning curve to a hair tie that doesn't budge and took me a day or two to get my hair looking good pulled back securely. I've used this purposefully for at least 2 weeks consistently to give an honest review on durability. So far there has been NO wearing out of the one hair tie I've used all this time. Not stretched out at all. There's only 3 included but these will LAST, I can tell. Also somehow there's no crease left in your hair after extended time in. Magic, I tell you! If you're struggling with thick hair and needing something to actually last and hold, I promise you these are worth it.

They work for fine hair too - I have thin, slick/silky fine hair - but a very sensitive head -- it is very hard for me to wear my hair in a pony tail because most hair bands that are tight enough to 'grip' my hair and not slip out, will also PULL some individual strands or pull all of them, so I'm either feeling pain and annoyance from individual strands here and there, or a headache of the whole punch is pulled too tight. The other alternatives, hairbands with silicone strips or soft silicone 'teeth' don't slip but still pull. Thick or thin, very few hair bands can hold my hair without either slipping, or pulling. But this burlyband is amazing - it has has a fabric grippy surface - hard to explain - it's not tacky, but if I put in one pony tail and wrap it twice around - it's loose enough not to give me a headache - but does NOT pull my hair at all - and does not slip AT ALL - it holds my ponytail at a nice angle. Or, if I put in two pony tails and wrap a band three times around - it has a great strong grip without being tight. The final comment -which probably hardly anyone reading this will relate to since these are supposedly for people with masses of thick hair -- is that these thick burlybands actually appear to GIVE my thin, fine skimpy hair volume, because of the way they hold the pony tail and project it out from my head - which is great! Usually my ponytails just sag and hang down with regular bands. This band is all things to all people - whether you have the masses thick tresses or fine thin baby hair like me.

These are worth every penny. I have fine hair and have been looking for hair ties I don’t have to readjust every five minutes because they are slipping out. I found some I like, but they stretch out and break way too easily. Based on other reviews, I decided to take the chance on these and I’m glad I did. They are different than traditional hair ties in that they are a thick, rolled material that stays in place!! I received these on August 23, and today is October 13. I’m still using the first tie I pulled out of the box! I wear it every day - anywhere from a couple of hours to all day - and it’s still in great shape. In the photo, the tie to the left is fresh out of the box. The one to the right is the single one I’ve worn everyday since I received them. Highly recommend and they are worth the price.

I love these hair ties. I have thick hair and they hold my hair tight all day long. I have them in several colors. I have not had a problem with them damaging my hair or stretching out and always holding shape. I will continue to always purchase this brand.

thick, snug bands that actually hold my hair in place, I might have to order more. Ppl with extra thick hair might not like these bands, but I love them!

EDIT: I’m back, I stand corrected. This hair tie (note: wrapped 3 times- this is important) held my hair in a perfect ponytail throughout one of Adrian’s 30 minute peloton tread bootcamps. I wouldn’t wear it this tight for everyday life, but for a workout it really does hold. I apologize for judging too quickly. I wouldn’t be able to wear it this tight all day though. But for running/jumping/skipping/sprinting/spinning the list goes on, it holds. Thanks!!! Definitely does the job as far as holding my hair up. Haven’t worked out wearing one yet but it doesn’t feel super secure so I don’t have a lot of confidence. Makes my pony look good though, if that’s what you’re going for. I was hoping for hold and a perky pony tail but we’ll see! I’ll update if it holds up to the test. I should also note that I have fine hair texture, so it easily slides out of ponytails but I also am tender headed so I can’t use anything insanely tight. Bought these because another review I read of someone with similar hair to mine recommended. Still unsure if these were worth the price tag

These are such good hair ties the only downfall is I think they're a little pricey for what it's worth who the hell really wants to spend $20 hair scrunchies but they are a really good product.

Very thick! If purchased, I suggest cutting them in half to make two hair bands- allowing them to not feel so tight!

Great for thick hair. Holds great and doesn't damage hair.

Super gut, halten die Form, hebt den ganzen tag ohne zu verutschen auch bei super dicken haaren!

These are awesome for ponytails to very full type styles. They never pull or bind. They are painless to use no yanking or .nasty grabbing They hold up a long time. . A bit pricey but worth the benefits.

Not the cheapest, but the best Update 15/9/2025: More than 3 years later ... and still going strong!
