Great for super thick hair
I was always stretching out and breaking elastics before, plus my hair would fall out anyway.  Not with these!  You do need to master their use or you will pull out a lot of hair! (Why only gave 4 stars)  As for breakage, compared to the regular types, two of these lasted longer than whole packs of other ones.  I wish now I had kept the rest instead of giving them to my daughters (who could not use them without pulling and breakage). Deninitely worth a try if looking for pony solutions!  Wish I could still find in stores.
