Clear Hair Elastics – Snag-Free Transparent Hair Ties, No-Damage Hair Rubber Bands, 4mm 8 Count

I used to buy something very similar to these at Sephora and they were called Magic Elastics. I went to go buy more but Sephora does not carry them anymore which makes me wonder if these are the same, just a different vendor.…. These are great. They last for quite a few uses, don’t snag, hold my hair in place. If you were a former magic elastics user, these are for you!!

These truly are easy to remove, they slide out of my hair without pulling my hair or breaking individual strands which means less damage-significantly less (see update below). These are also very stretchy, much more than expected and I love how they disappear when they are in my hair. The only complaint I have is this isn’t stretchy enough to go around your wrist without it being super tight. If I take my hair band out somewhere other than home I usually put it on my wrist so I don’t lose it, with this I can’t because it’s tight which is how I’ve lost the ones I have. These are on the expensive side for what you’re getting.***Edited to update***I changed my rating from 3 to 5 because I am still on the same original package of 8. A nice addition although it may come with a price increase would be change the packaging its cute but not functional, after you use an elastic it will stretch a little (nothing major and still not even close to being able to fit on my 6.5" wrist) so when you try to put the used elastic back in the packaging (to keep up with them) the used elastic falls out so its impossible to keep them all together. To date I have not found anything else similar to this product, when I got my hair cut my stylist commented on how I no longer have any damage from hair ties (like the traditional ones I once used) she thought I wasn't wearing my hair up at all anymore, I then proceeded to tell her about these. She recommended I keep using them and she has now bought them for herself and now recommends to other clients.

These are a bit thicker than I am used to, but they do not hurt my hair. This is critical since I have extremely fine hair strands. I would recommend them to anyone that is looking for truly snag free hair bands.

Great hair elastics, good quality and easy to use. I see why the price is so high compared with other similar bands, but still ... expensive for a bit of stretchy plastic.

These clear elastic hair bands are strong. I’ve bought others but nothing compares.

I love these elastics. The matte texture makes then nearly invisible. I use the wider size for ponytails and buns and the thinner size for braids. I have very fine, straight, soft hair that hair ties and clips just slip right out of. My hair is also damaged and breaks easily. These elastics stay in really well without having to wrap too tightly and they miraculously pull right out when I'm ready to take my hair down without snagging or pulling at all. They also never seem to wear out. If they do happen to get stretched out a little after I've used the same one for months on end I just run hot tap water over it for a moment and let it cool and it has bounced back to its original shape and elasticity. The only reason I ever have to replace them is because I lose them. If you have thicker or heavier hair you may want to double up.

I bought it a few times over the years and will continue to do so. I just wish they would make a bigger pack. They are perfect for any color hair, since they are clear. They look small when first opened but then are able to be stretched to fit the hair. I have thick medium coarse hair and can fit them around my hair. They give a nice taught hold.

This is the second time that I have ordered this product. The first time was about a year ago. There are five or six elastic bands in this package. I only use them when I do a messy bun, which is probably three a month.These elastics are reusable!They keep their shape very well.Like I mentioned above it took about a year for me to go through the five or six that came in the package!At first I didn’t think it was a very good deal. I thought it was too expensive for so little product, but seeing how long that they lasted, I am a believer!I buy the little elastics from the grocery store and I only get one use out of them before they stretch out and break! I definitely recommend this product especially for a messy bun!
