Collection: Hair Ties for 4B Hair

4B hair has a soft Z shaped coil pattern that's especially prone to thinning and breakage at the edges from regular elastics. The Buckle Scrunchie and Buckle Hair Tie click open instead of pulling free, protecting the hairline and the coil pattern. Extra stretchy and comfortably secure, they hold styles without the damage.

4B coils need a hair tie, scrunchie, or ponytail holder that won't thin the edges over time. The Buckle Hair Tie and Buckle Scrunchie work for puffs, twist outs, braids, and protective styles, releasing clean instead of tugging at fragile Z shaped coils.

Hair Ties for 4B Hair

Why it works for 4B coily hair

4B coils love to wrap around elastic, so a regular hair tie usually comes out with strands attached, or you end up cutting it out. Buckle Scrunchies and Buckle Hair Ties click open and unwrap, so your coils and edges stay intact, and puffs stay secure all day.

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!

See how it works
01 What hair tie is best for 4B hair?

One that opens before it comes off. A Buckle Scrunchie clicks open and unwraps, so 4B coils aren't tugged or wrapped around the band.

02 How do I stop hair ties from getting stuck in my coils?

Use one that unwraps. Press the buckle sides on a Buckle Scrunchie to click it open, then hold both ends as it loosens from your hair.

Secure but easy on your edges. Wrap a Buckle Scrunchie 2 or 3 times, and adjust the wraps for more or less hold.
