Review (1/5): Easy to make sturdier ones?
If you want to wear ribbons on your ponytail, you're better off using your favorite ponytail holder and buying ribbon at a craft store (like Michael's, Hobby Lobby or even Walmart) and tying them on.
These ribbons are tied to THREE ponytail holders each and the ponytail holders have the metal clasp. The ribbons MIGHT cover the metal on the ponytail holders, but everything staying in place is another matter... and not everyone has thick enough hair to require 3 ponytail holders.
