FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything people ask about Buckle Scrunchies for small ponytails and little ones.

See how it works
01 What are the best small hair ties for toddlers?

Ones that come out without a fight. These click open and unwrap, so you aren't working a tiny elastic out of tangled pigtails while your toddler cries.

02 What are small hair ties good for?

Pigtails, space buns, braid ends, half up half down styles, and short or fine hair. Anywhere you're only tying a small section.

03 Can kids take these out by themselves?

Most can. They press the sides of the buckle to click it open and the tie unwraps, so there's no pulling it over their head.

Why it works for small ponytails and little ones

Tiny elastics are the worst to take out of a kid's pigtails or a short ponytail. They knot up and you end up cutting them out. These click open and unwrap instead, so small sections come down with no tears, and they hold through recess, practice, and nap time.

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!

Buckle Hair Tie Elastics – Quick-Release, Snag-Free, Zero Tangles

Love them!!!

I currently have pretty short hair after my summer chop but I hate the feeling of hair on my neck or face and pulling out a ponytail and all the hair with it always sucked. Saw these on tiktok and had to try! I think my fave part is that they work with shorter (between chin and shoulder) hair just as well as they will work when my hair grows out and I start wrapping it up into a bun!

Love these buckle hair ties and now going to need to add some scrunchies to the collection over the fall!

Easy for dads to use and my daughter loves it

I’m horrible with hair and would always pull out my daughter’s hair when taking out her ties. Now everyone is happy with no tears, no torn hair - and they come in fun pink! Definitely recommend buying then for your daily use.

All green kinda day

I love bright rich colors. Hence why I got probably the two brightest scrunchies in the pack 🤣

It's rhe little things

My story is just a little different. After my accident my husband was my new hairdresser. I no longer have rhe use is my right arm. My husband simply can't do a ponytail or scrunchie.. When the scrunchie is open he simply wraps it around my ponytail and buckles it. Yay finally I can wear my hair in a scrunchie again!

So Beautiful!

I REALLY love this blue glitter scrunchie! I love glitter/glitter items and the glitter combined with this beautiful shade of blue really is the bees knees! Such a pretty scrunchie! I’m literally obsessed with these buckle scrunchies, I can’t have enough! They are so much better on my hair and removing them with the buckle method really products my hair as well :). Such an innovative and wonderful idea!

Doesn't pull or tug at all

The best part about the buckle scrunchie is how incredible it feels taking it out of my hair! The dramatic effect is everything and it doesn’t pull or tug at all. Plus the colors are adorable and the fabric is so soft❤️ I’m absolutely obsessed with them!!

SO CUTE and functional

I work in the medical field and wear my hair up a lot throughout the day and during my workouts/runs after my shift. I usually just use a hair tie, but they often give me headaches and tangle my hair. I wanted something cute, comfy, and wouldn't tangle my hair. These are definitely the solution. I get so many compliments on the different colors too.

It’s cute!

I wore my new buckle scrunchie for the first time at work today a 10 hour nursing shift. I looped it around 3 times and did not have to adjust it all day!

My new favorite scrunchie!

I love the buckle scrunchie! The fabric is beautiful and high quality that can be dressed up or down. It's so nice not having to yank on my hair to take it out of a ponytail or bun, and instead, just unbuckle it and gently let my hair down. It's a game changer! It was shipped to me quickly and was beautifully packaged with a hand written note.
