invisibobble Power Traceless Spiral Hair Ties - Pack of 3 Crystal Clear - Strong Elastic Grip Coil Hair Accessories for Active Women - No Kink, Non Soaking - Gentle for Girls Teens and Thick Hair

Wow- I am really impressed by these hair bands! I have long hair (nearly to my waist). My hair texture is straight and fine, but I have A LOT of hair. I was most concerned with these getting stuck in my hair, since my hair is so fine. My hair gets stuck in a lot of hair products. I had been using the "seamless" elastic hair bands for YEARS. And I have 100s of them. Yet, I always lose them somehow- and they always leave a "dent" in my hair. When I saw the ad for the invisibobble, I was intrigued that it claims not to leave a visible dent in your hair. That was enough to sell me and shell out the >$8 for just 3 hair bands. I've been using the invisibobble Power bands for just over a month and I am hooked. They do not pull my hair, snag my hair, or come loose. They are strong enough to hold my long hair back in a ponytail without any slipping. There is a little bit of a technique to removing them, though. You can't just pull them straight off while they're wrapped around your ponytail. You have to unwrap them one loop at a time. This prevents pulling and any associated breakage (technically, that's the same way you should remove a regular elastic hair band, but who really does that anyway??) Now, that said, I will say that these bands are not for everyone. I was so thrilled with my invisibobble that I showed it off to my cousins over Thanksgiving. When I asked my younger cousin to show me how to do a "messy bun" she showed me on her hair using my invisibobble. Somehow, she got the invisibobble stuck in her hair and immediately determined she did not like the invisibobble at all. For reference, she's 19 years old with shoulder length fine hair. SO- while they may not be for everyone, they are definitely worth a try if you're looking for a comfortable hair band that does not give you a headache to wear and does not leave a dent in your hair.

I love these! I have thick, heavy hair and these hold my ponytails with zero issues. They also go right back to their original shape after taking them out. Worth the price. Will repurchase if I lose the ones I have.

I cannot & will not live without InvisiBobble! If you’re considering buying these for curly hair, I cannot recommend them enough. I wish someone had told me about these sooner!I have long, curly hair (3a), and these weird plastic hair ties keep my curl pattern intact between wash days, workouts, sleep, yard work, etc SO MUCH BETTER than a scrunchie or a traditional fabric-covered hair elastic.I always sleep with my hair in a loose bun to prevent it from getting frizzy, tangled, & losing curl definition. When using a regular elastic hair tie, it is impossible to make a tight enough bun that stays all night without crushing my curls. The hair between my scalp and the ponytail gets stretched and looses root volume, while the hair in the bun falls out and gets fuzzy anyway. Working out with a regular hair elastic is a million times worse, because the elastic bounces down, pulling my hair flat & straight on the way out. So many bad hair days due to bad hair ties!InvisiBobble, in stark contrast, is somehow tight enough to hold a bun all night & a ponytail for an entire workout, without slipping or pulling or being too tight on any one section of hair. Wherever you put it, that’s where it will be whenever you get back to it. I’ve literally gone to bed with a bun, woke up & liked it, worn that same bun to work all day, and still had perfect curls when I took it out like 20 hours later. No pony dent, no flattening. I love these.I’ve purchased the “slim” type twice previously, and I expect a 3-pack to last about 6 months before breaking or disappearing. Not bad. They’re not indestructable, but note that I also use them every single day for like 10+ hours a day between sleeping and ponytails around the house. So they’re much more durable than traditional ties. I’m interested to see how the durability on these “power” ties compares & will update if it’s any different.

I take showers at night and put my hair up to sleep while wet as I do not blow dry my hair. These are fantastic at following through with the "no crease" promise but I can't necessarily say that they hold better than an ordinary hair tie, even with being the super strong hold. Despite that, I'm still sold for it holding my hair up while I sleep without leaving creases in my hair. Another selling point is they do not cause split/damaged ends and ripped hair the way a typical ponytail would if it got stuck and you sit there trying to untangle and end up ripping it out. Also, I tend to wrap the hair tie around my pony 3 times and when I take it out, the plastic material is really stretched out and hasn't really gone back to original shape like other reviewers have mentioned it does after a few days. It does however shrink back to some degree and this is good enough for me. Lastly, I wish there were more in a pack for the money but oh well. All in all I am impressed despite the minor downfalls and would definitely purchase this product again. Thanks!
