Review (5/5): All of the hype is true
I have long, very curly (think ringlet-y afro, Diana Ross style) hair. I have tried many a hair band, and every time I go to pull them out (even gently by easing every twist off individually) I end up with a clump (maybe slightly exaggerated, but still too much hair for my liking) of hair in my hand and wrapped around the band. I saw these hair ties in a Youtube video for a Birchbox (beauty subscription box) "unboxing & review", and was curious. The girl said that they definitely worked. So, I thought "why not" they're inexpensive on Amazon. Well, THEY WORK. I think they're fantastic. They still pull out a little bit of hair, but mostly slide right off my ginormous mane with ease. If you have a lot of hair (or even a little) and are looking for a great hair band, this is the one for you.
