Goody Ouchless were my old standby, but my hair is long and thick enough now that I'm going through one or two a week, and occasionally snap one when I really need it, for a professional event. I need large, plain black, elastic hair ties. Any idea where someone sells them?
Hi Stephen - most supermarkets & 'chain-stores' will sell 'No-Damage' hair-ties = I have a bunch of dark coloured ones myself = so I can 'slick-it-whip-it-up-good-2-go ... life is busy, after all = just go to the 'girly' section where all the brushes & shampoos are = I've had to swallow my pride 2 you know ... hehe *gigglez* cheers to you CEM.
Is it possible you're wearing them too tight? I use "scunci"
ties, they don't damage the hair and they last for many weeks at
a time. I always get them in the color black.
The key is to not make them too tight.
And while they are not too tight they will still hold.
