REVLON Extra Thick Black Hair Elastics, 15 Count

There is no consistency in stores when it comes to hair rubber bands and I have a thick wavy hair that I often wear up in a bun and these are the only ones that work well without being too thin or tight. Finding these thicker ones are nearly impossible! I was very glad to find them on here and I have been re-ordering ever since. They are well-made and last a long time (or until my cat gets a hold of one ) lol

These are amazingly thick hair ties. I have 2 daughters, plus myself, and we go through so many hair ties, and I'm always looking to see if there are superior ones out there. We all have different hair types, too. Let me tell you, these are probably my favorite set thus far. They are honestly much thicker than your regular garden variety hair ties. They're not just labeled to be thicker like some are, yet end up coming the same size as most. NOPE...these are THICKER! They also don't break or stretch out easily, which is just as important. These are not what you'd use for smaller pieces of hair or braids. These have been good for half, or full ponytails. Fyi...(They are tight on my wrist, as shown in my pic, and are how most unstretched hair ties fit on me, but they do fit. I don't really wear them on my wrists anyways, but my daughter loves wearing hers on her wrist, and she's able to wear these just fine). I have long, fine hair, and I really need a tight fitting hair tie. One that doesn't break or get so stretched out that it leaves my ponytail flat. These help give me that bounce, and they stay put, and don't pull on my hair. None have broken yet, so I still haven't went through the whole pack. I still wish they came with more, because I am known to lose track of my hair ties, and my daughter's not much better.😂 I don't really use these on my youngest, 7yr old daughter, because she has shorter, thinner hair, and regular hair ties are sufficient for her hair right now. Plus, I want to keep these for myself, and my oldest daughter, because we both really need this thicker style. My oldest, 13yr old daughter has A LOT of hair! She has really long, thick, curly hair, and has a hard time finding hair ties for the same reason as me. We all want and need quality hair ties, and I have been very pleased with these, and am happy to recommend them to you. *(Pictures above are with 1. A basic regular Scunci Brand hair tie in Navy. 2. A Goody Brand hair tie that comes with a band of rubber swirled around it. (I like these, as well. They stay in place). 3. This Extra thick Revlon hair tie. (My favorite)!

I rarely bother to write reviews. Why would I do it now for a <$5.00 item? Because these seem to last somewhere between 100 and infinity times longer than any other hair tie I've ever used. I'm a 40+ year old male, with laughably thick, longer than shoulder length hair. All other hair ties I've used last a day or two, the glued together connection snaps, I tie the ends in a knot, and it lasts a few weeks longer. Then I tried these. According to Amazon, I bought my first pack 2 years ago. The first one I used, the glued connection snapped after a few weeks, so I tied it just like the rest. But.........Then apparently these will last indefinitely. I'm literally still using the FIRST ONE I pulled out of the package. I used two of them at a time to manage the man bun. I'll check back in on this review in a couple decades and let you know how the other 4 in the package hold up, IF I ever get around to needing them. I'm shocked, awestruck, amused, and maybe even a little bid frightened by how well this 3 dollar purchase has held up. These will outlast you, me, my children, my childrens' children and maybe even the planet itself.

I have been seeking a replacement for a discontinued scünci hair elastic type for quite a few years now, and have yet to find a suitable replacement that is durable. This particular brand is, so far, the best I have come across, but it still falls short. The problem I have is that I find elastics last a few weeks, and then become so stretched out that I have to throw them away and start with a fresh one. If I go with other brands or types, I find they either entirely don't work, and start to slip off my ponytail almost immediately, or they only survive a small handful of times used. Anyway. These Revlon ones seem to last 3-4 weeks of daily use before I need to throw them away and start fresh. These ones have a glued or fused band inside them that will break eventually, but often before it breaks, it will stretch out to a point where it no longer holds the hair well. I really am looking for a nylon one that does not involve a rubber band covered in stretchy fabric. That is the type I had that worked the best years ago. But so far, I haven't encountered anyone making such a thing with enough strength to hold in place.

I have a lot of hair! It's very thick, but the hair its self is thin and very long. I have to put it up in a bun every day, and I was breaking bands left and right! The normal bands weren't cutting it, my hair would slip through out the day and I would always have to re-do it. Then as I would strech it to pull my hair though, *snap*! I had resorted to using four of the very thin ones, which was ok, but not perfect These are AMAZING! I have had one that I have been using for my hair for the past two weeks, and that is saying something! Yes it's thick, it's hard to pull, but that is what makes it great! It's nice and strong, and can keep a bun in place ALL DAY!! My hair doesn't slip out, I've never had to redo it during the day. Also, when I throw my hair up in a messy bun, I only need ONE band! And it stays! If you have thick hair, don't even question this investment. It works beautifully, doesn't break, and just does what hair bands are supposed to do. I hope they have some brown ones soon!

These bands are THICK. They provide great hold but unless you have small wrists, you won't be able to hold these on your wrist because they are too tight. I can wrap it twice in my hair, or once if I am putting up my 3a curls pineapple style for bed, but they won't go more than that. They also don't have too much pull. I prefer nylon ties.

These hair ties are the best I've ever purchased for my hair. I have sleek hair but a lot of it. Most hair ties, will sly off or stretched out too much because they wouldn't hold up to the amount of hair I have.

I have super thick hair, no other hair ties work for my hair without breaking or falling quickly. I love these. I’ve had zero break on me. None have stretched out or fallen or anything. They hold up well and hold my hair where I want it to be too. I will never buy another kind again. These are cheap and work! Now if I could just stop misplacing them, I’d be golden!

I really like these hair bands..I wrap them around my pony tail twice and they stay on... just the perfect fit! These are thick and very well made. I will continue to purchase them.

Gostei do elástico. É grosso e parece resistemte.

Excelentes para mucho cabello, son grandes y resistentes

Awesome for my hair, works great but seems to do that weird stretchy thing right near the seam pretty quick, but still holds on tight! New fave elastics.

Great for thick/heavy hair! I was sick of putting a ponytail in and having it sag after an hour - these don’t have a huge amount of stretch which I think is what keeps them so tight. The only thing I don’t like (hence the 4 stars) are the way they connected them. It looks like they just burnt them and fused them together, so I don’t know how sturdy it will be or if they will break easily in the future. You can see the one in my photo - the thinner plasticky section - looks like it’s close to breaking already (though none have yet). Those little plasticy sections are not smooth, but didn’t bother me. It just looks a bit shoddy. As I said, so far, so good - they are a nice sturdy hair tie!
