Why it works for thick hair

Thick hair is where regular hair ties give up: they snap, they slide, and they rip out a handful of strands when you finally pull them off. A Buckle Scrunchie wraps 2 to 4 times for a strong hold on heavy hair, then clicks open and unwraps, so takedown has no pulling and no tangles.

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!

FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything people ask about Buckle Scrunchies for thick hair.

See how it works
01 What is the best scrunchie for thick hair?

One that wraps enough times to hold the weight and comes out without pulling. A Buckle Scrunchie wraps 2 to 4 times for a strong ponytail, then clicks open and unwraps so thick hair is not ripped at takedown.

02 Why do hair ties snap in thick hair?

They get stretched to the limit every time you twist them on and drag them off. A Buckle Scrunchie is extra stretchy, and because it clicks open you are not overstretching it to get it out.

03 Will a scrunchie stay in thick curly hair all day?

Yes, if it wraps tight enough. Wrap a Buckle Scrunchie 2 to 4 times for the hold you want, and when it is time to take it down, hold both ends while it unwraps.
