Collection: Swimming Scrunchies & Hair Ties

Swimming hair ties have one hard job, which is coming out wet. Chlorine and soaked hair turn a normal elastic into a knot you end up cutting.

Search "hair tie for swimmers" and that is the top complaint every time. Buckle Hair Ties click open soaked, so you are not standing on deck yanking at a swollen band.

Swim team parents keep a few swimming scrunchies in the bag for meets, practice and the drive home.
