    At night, I use satin scrunchies for keeping things protected. During the daytime, I use hair ties for guys from the longhairs. I've had far less breakage using these than I did with cheap elastics found at the store. Plus, I like getting them in fun colors and patterns for a little bit of flair.

    I only use scrunchies or invisobobbles anymore, preferably scrunchies though. Invisobobbles for a more chic, business look if necessary.

    I use satin or silk scrunchies the most of the time and sometimes when my hair is oily by an oil treatment I wear normally hairties !

    For years and years I used the goody metal-free elastics - the big thick ones for ponies/twisted up buns in the day before I knew how to use forks/sticks and the smaller ones for the ends of braids. I also used the clear elastics for braid tails if I was doing two braids. Both kinds cause more breakage than I liked and tbh have really reinforced my belief in sacrificial ends. I've stopped wearing my hair in two braids mostly because of the elastic situation.

    I bought some scrunchies small enough for a single braid tail but large enough to hold a ponytail (though I quite rarely wear a pony) a while back, and use satin scrunchies for sleep-buns. The small scrunchies have improved matters significantly and I've been contemplating getting some more... I saw some little satin ones at Target a few weeks ago but thought I'd probably lose them off the end of my braid and not notice!

    The knitted ones that are like a thick stocking material.

    I keep using regular rubber bands even though I should be using the satin scunchies!

    Literally dollar store brand hair ties LOL. Just the metal-less fabric covered ones

    I also have these plastic ones that look like telephone cords and those are really fun, I’m constantly scared of them getting caught in my curls though so I don’t use them as much.
