Nothing else would hold my LO's fine hair. I typically cut them out with baby nail scissors or nail clippers (because I happen to have them in the same drawer, I guess). I only unwrap them if they are a bit lose. caitcat on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857207 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 19:29:41 +0000 caitcat 2857207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ For pig tails or braids, I use similar small bands to what’s been recommended. They are a pain to get out though! For just a single pony tail, I really like these coil hair ties. I can loop them a couple times and they don’t pull my daughter’s hair as I take them out. They’re kinda bulky, but for a pony tail she doesn’t seem to mind and they stay in well:: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FYB35YJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_h917Bb8FTJ27D" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FYB35YJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_h917Bb8FTJ27D</a> newlypregnantlady on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857205 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 18:25:07 +0000 newlypregnantlady 2857205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NBSV7UD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_xf17BbXCCBXKX" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NBSV7UD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_xf17BbXCCBXKX</a> My girls have a lot of hair and these work the best for us. They’re small but soft and hard to turn into weapons! But you do need more than just a tiny baby amount of hair. I have a ton of wavy thick hair and I think my girls have inherited my hair.

I can easily unwind these from DD's hair with a bit of patience (and she is 10 with nearly shoulder length hair). I can not say the same for the elastic version. I can get 2 or 3 uses if I remove them well enough. :grin: SweetCaroline on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857203 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 17:44:15 +0000 SweetCaroline 2857203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lady baltimore: the ones that come 500 per pack? Yes, single use. They get all stretched out even if you don't cut them out. lady baltimore on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857202 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 17:37:58 +0000 lady baltimore 2857202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @SweetCaroline: So they're only single use?

Then they really are ouchless! snowjewelz on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857194 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 16:34:19 +0000 snowjewelz 2857194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lady baltimore: I use the same ones. The other ones above are so hard to get out and pull hair with them; totally not ouchless IMO! lady baltimore on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857192 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 16:22:14 +0000 lady baltimore 2857192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My mom put hair ties like everyone has recommended in my daughter's hair last week and I wanted to murder her! They were a real bitch to get out, and tore a bunch of her hair. We used these when LO first had enough hair for pony tails: <a href="https://www.target.com/p/goody-girls-ouchless-mixed-pack-elastics-45ct/-/A-15642839" rel="nofollow">https://www.target.com/p/goody-girls-ouchless-mixed-pack-elastics-45ct/-/A-15642839</a> and recently switched to these: <a href="https://www.target.com/p/scunci-ponytailers-40pk/-/A-75564457" rel="nofollow">https://www.target.com/p/scunci-ponytailers-40pk/-/A-75564457</a> Kaohinani on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857181 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 15:11:38 +0000 Kaohinani 2857181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ When my DD was little she had shorter "baby fine" wavy hair. We used the following "polybands" made specifically for fine hair. (* photo affixed) Of course, now she has lovely thick hair (still fine textured, though) but I still use these when doing more intricate braids and updos along with clips and hair pins to keep the flyaways at bay and maintain a finished look. These have been a godsend.

They are about the size of a ring. snarkybiochemist on "hair ties" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hair-ties#post-2857170 Fri, 16 Nov 2018 14:47:00 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2857170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ What hair ties do you use for short little girl hair?
