Comfy, durable once you get to know them
These are a staple in my household. I always have them. Always. Some live in my bathroom, on the gear shift in my car, in my teen daughters backpack, in my kitchen drawers … you get the idea. Both my daughter and I have long hair She’s 17, with blonde hair below her waist that’s super long but fairly thin white girl hair. Mine is dark brown, mid back. fairly thick Latina hair. We both love these. Here’s why:Assorted thicknessesPain free / Don’t pull out hairCan wear comfortably on wrist (thin ones)Last forever *IF* you don’t overstretchGreat value / low price for quantityIf you’re switching from another brand, there is an adjustment. Don’t over stretch these or they will break. For my hair, these can be wrapped around my ponytail twice, maybe three times if I’m super duper careful. With the thin ones, this means I’ll have a loose ponytail that might need to be redone during the day, which is fine for me if I’m running errands, fine for my daughter during rehearsals. The thick ones, while still going around just twice, provide reliable hold when needed. As long as you know this up front, they won’t all break as other reviewers have noted. Recap: Don’t wrap more than twice.The thin ones are our daily use scrunchy – super easy to grab and throw your hair up. They hold hair without pulling, so they’re pain free. These are thin enough to wear around your wrist without cutting off circulation. The thick ones are far more sturdy and we use these when hair MUST stay in place, eg stage performances or serious hairstyles for fancy events. The thick ones are NOT comfortable to wear on the wrist; these will cut off circulation to your hand. But the tick ones are super sturdy for serious hair needs. I wore two of the thick ones for a side sweeping up-do I wore for a recent wedding … held perfectly for 10 hours and lots of dancing.For both the thin and thick ones, wrapping your ponytail more than twice runs the risk of breaking. So be careful. But you can double up if needed … wrap two of the tick ones twice around my hair, and my ponytail would survive a windstorm.One pack of these will last FOREVER. Yes, of course there is inevitable breakage with regular use. But these come 36 to a pack … that’s a LOT of use. I buy one of these for our stockings each Christmas (one for daughter, one for me) and we have enough to pretty much last the entire year!! Yes, my house, purse, car, and life are sprinkled with these particular hair bands. But – for the price, quality, quantity – I wouldn’t buy any other brand.

I wouldn’t buy stock in these
While they do the job, at least initially, these Scunci elastics feel thin and as if they’re losing their elasticity too quickly. And they’re not terribly substantial. I’ve purchased similar (I don’t remember the brand, unfortunately) elastics that are much thicker and last almost indefinitely, like, until you lose them or something – but they don’t get looser and looser like these do.Also, they work – at least for me – only to hold low ponytails. The higher I try to make it, the further down it slips, so these elastics evidently don’t have the strength to do more than bind… certainly not to lift.On a more positive note, these work for a variety of hair types: They hold my thinner, very fine, straight hair with three loops, and my daughters thick, voluminous, curly hair with two, and they don’t grab out hair upon removal. So no complaints there. Like I said, they get the job done. And they’re just an add-on item, so you’re probably not buying packs and packs of them. I’d advise against that, anyway.P.S. If you’re looking for a very precise color, know that the pink and teal pictured here are lighter and dustier than the actual elastics, which are a bright pink and bright teal.

Works great, a lot better than the first ones I bought.I did own one of these years ago, in the 80’s 🥰Thanks!
