Cycling Scrunchies & Hair Ties

Cycling hair ties fail in the same place every time, right under the helmet straps. Buckle Scrunchies stay put through climbs and sprints and click off in one motion at the end of the ride.

A normal elastic digs in and slips once you are an hour in. A cycling scrunchie that needs readjusting at speed is not a real option.

Road cyclists, spin regulars and mountain bikers all deal with helmet hair the same way, with cycling hair ties that do not fight back.

Why it works for cyclists

Riding long means a ponytail fighting your helmet straps, hair knotting in the wind, and a tie that rips strands when you pull it out after. A Buckle Hair Tie or Buckle Scrunchie holds a low pony secure for the whole ride, then clicks open and unwraps.

Best for
  • Road Cycling
  • Mountain Biking
  • Spin Class
  • Bike Commutes
  • Triathletes
  • Low Ponytails
  • Low Braids
  • Helmet Hair
  • Long Rides
  • Gravel Rides

Real hair, real takedowns

Tap for sound

Benefits

  • Helmet off, tie out, no ripping hair after a long ride
  • Fewer windblown knots and less breakage at takedown
  • A low pony or braid that stays put under the helmet
  • Comfortable for hours, because you set how tight it goes

Features

  • Click open buckle, so wind knotted hair unwraps instead of tearing
  • Extra stretchy and wraps 2 to 4 times, so a low pony holds for miles
  • Thin hair ties for under the helmet, fabric scrunchies for spin class
  • Wears on your wrist for the coffee stop after the ride
  • Really strong and made to last forever. Wear it out (you should) and the buckle has a 100 year warranty

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 cyclists.

See how it works
01 How should I wear my hair under a bike helmet?

A low pony or two low braids below the helmet cradle. A thin Buckle Hair Tie keeps them secure and clicks open when the ride is over.

02 How do I stop my hair tie slipping on a bike ride?

Wrap it 3 or 4 times at the nape and finish with the buckle on the outside. You control the tension, so the Buckle Hair Tie stays put for long rides.

03 How do I get a hair tie out of sweaty, windblown hair?

Click the buckle open with your fingertips so the tie unwraps. Hold both ends if your hair is thick or curly, and the tie comes out without ripping or knots.

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.
