USE THESE HAIR TIES WITH YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS
Let’s talk about damaged hair.
You may notice split ends or your locks lacking moisture from using too many chemicals (bleaching), frequently using hot tools to style your hair, over-brushing, or you may be adding too much protein into your hair care routine (yes this is possible).
However, did you know that using the wrong type of hair tie can also lead to breakage?
If you constantly have your hair up whether it be to go to sleep or during a workout, your hair ties may be the culprit of your hair breaking off.
Hair Ties to Avoid
Rubber band Hair Ties
Rubber band hair ties are the most commonly used amongst ponytail users as they are easily found on every Target Run, but they are the most damaging to your hair. They create an excessive amount of friction, which tugs on the hair and causes breakage.
Use These Hair Ties Instead…
Invisibobble
Invisibobble hair ties look just as fun as they sound - they come in a spiral design and keep your hair in place without leaving any kinks when you put your hair down. They are also super gentle on your hair and scalp, which prevents any irritation that you may be experiencing from other hair elastics.
Fabric Hair Ties
Yes, fabric hair ties - aka scrunchies, are back from the 80s and that’s a good thing! The fabric covers the elastic and reduces friction and frizz in your hair, while preventing tugging that can break off hair strands.
They come in so many different colors, sizes, and designs, so you can change up your look while keeping your locks healthy and secure.
