Hair ties

A ring-shaped, elastic band is called a hair tie (also pigtail tie , m. Or neutr.), Which is used to gather longer hair into thicker strands and keep them in shape. The hair elastic is indispensable for hairstyles like ponytails , buns or pigtails .

The diameter and material thickness of a hair tie can vary. The material itself is usually a latex or plastic product that is covered with a textile fabric . Elements for decoration are often attached to this basic shape, e.g. B. embroidery or decorations made of plastic, metal , wood and other materials.

There are hair ties with and without metal fasteners; those without a metal fastener are less damaging to the hair.
