I Think It’s Time We Bring Back The Scrunchie
I don’t ask for much,* but can we bring back the scrunchie?
Here’s the thing… my daughter has a LOT of hair, and that means I have to spend a lot of time putting it into pigtails, french braids, what-ever-the-hell-else-you-do-with-hair, etc. Which means I use all sorts of rubber bands. The problem with these rubber bands is that they’re black, and tiny. So, I lose them.
All the freaking. time.
Seriously, it’s like I never use the same one twice, and I feel like that’s such a waste.
So, I have the perfect solution. Let’s bring back the scrunchie. There’s only one problem, I would never in a million years wear a scrunchie, so I’m going to need you to do this for me. Everyone dig deep into the depths of your bathroom drawers and pull out your rockinest scrunchie.
Now, we’ve started a trend. We’re cool! And, totally unrelated, I can stop spending a small fortune on Goody Ouchless Rubberbands…
*Okay, that’s not entirely true, I ask for lots of things…
Love this post! Two links for you:
First, Scrunchies.com, of course. Tons of scrunchies over there.
Second, Hair Flair Boutique, they have a ton of Scunci Girl accessories and yes, even girls’ scrunchies.
@Hair Flair, I am LOVING the stuff over at Hair Flair!
I’m with Lynette and Nicole – scrunchies never went out of style. The rest of the world just became unfashionable.
I have long thick hair too, and I have to use scrunchies when I work out or jog because they’re the only thing that will hold all my hair.
Thank you, Lynnette! I still wear scrunchies at times. Sometimes even out of the house. Was too scared to admit this before Lynnette posted though, lol
Scrunchies are out of style? Since when? 😉

We lose ours all the time too. And I even buy the colored ones. I do sometimes find them in random places.
Hehe – I know! I lose those freaking things all the time!! I started putting them on the little ring that comes with them, but still. Crazytown.
*whispers* Don’t tell anyone, but I wear a scrunchie in my hair to bed. (sexy, no?) (sexy, NO!) I have thick long hair, and if I don’t put it up I sleep and choke on hair all night. The black bands just don’t hold all the layers, and they’re not as gentle/kind to the hair.
Husband doesn’t mind, because otherwise, he’d be sleeping and choking on my hair at night too.
BUT, I swearz, I don’t wear them out of the house. Ever. I don’t even answer the pizza delivery door with one in my hair.
Okay, enough purging of my embarrassing fashion don’ts for the day.
Happy Monday,
Lola
@Lola Sharp, hah! I just pictured your doorbell ringing, you pulling the scrunchie out of your hair, tousling, and opening the door!
