Review (3/5): Invisibobble fan girl here- not a big fan of these though :(
I pretty much love all things Invisibobble and swear by their hair ties and several of their other hair accessories. I was really excited to try these since they slightly reminded me of those crazy double loop/figure 8 hair ties I had as a kid. I thought this might be a cool addition if I quickly needed/wanted to put my hair up.
Sadly, I have no idea how to get these to work without being a total disaster. While, yes, the mechanics should seem pretty obvious- it's easier said than done. Every time I tried to use these to tie up my hair, it ultimately came out looser than I wanted since I was trying (in vain) to maneuver.
These are very cute and made of the traditional Invisibobble cord (same as what is used in the "Slim" version of the hair ties) but if you're trying to use these on yourself- they're tough. If you are trying to tie up someone else's hair, these are likely a slam dunk and very easy to use.
Overall, not as easy to use as I would have liked but these could be a great option for other folks, depending on their application and use.
