Best gifts for 12 year old girls: Red and pink satin Buckle Scrunchies arranged as a Valentine's gift

Why it works for 12 year old girls

At 12, she wears her hair up for school, practice, and sleepovers, and pulls the hair tie out with a knot attached every night. Buckle Scrunchies click open and unwrap so her hair comes down with no pulling or tears, and they hold a ponytail all day. Parents get a gift she will actually wear.

  • Extra stretchy and wraps 2 to 4 times like the hair ties she already uses
  • She chooses how tight it goes, so it is secure without hurting her head

How to use Buckle Scrunchies

1. Tying up your hair

  • Start with the buckle closed
  • Hold the buckle so you know where it is
  • Wrap 2 to 4 times around your hair like a normal hair tie
  • Buckle wraps around last, so it can be the first thing to come off!

2. Taking down your hair

  • Locate the buckle (should be around the outside loop)
  • Press the sides of the buckle with the fleshy part of your fingers to click it open
  • Hold both ends of the buckle if you have thicker or curlier hair so it doesn't get lost or tangled
  • Let it unwrap and twirl out of your hair. Remember, there's no need to pull anymore!
