I was browsing Pinterest and a friend pinned these!! OMG I wore them ALL THE TIME!!!
-
Haha! No but I always wished my hair could hold them up. Mine was too thin for them. My curly hair girls wore the sh*t out of them, though!
-
All the time!
-
I did not, but lots of people I knew did!
-
@mediagirl: same! My hair wouldn't stay.
-
Haha, yes!! I probably had all those colors too.
-
I have an idea of what they are but how on earth are they supposed to hold your hair?? I mean, what's it supposed to look like once you put it in?
-
Banana clips? My aunt gave me one. I loved it.
-
@NaturallyCathy: like so.
-
@mediagirl: So much 90's style in one picture...!!!
-
Unfortunately yes!
-
ahh! totalllly.
-
@mediagirl: So like a fake mohawk ponytail? I don't get it.
-
Yup, and I will rock one now too! It really does give a nice look, haha!!
-
Haha, haven't seen one of those in a while. Yup, I sure did!
-
@NaturallyCathy: Haha, just a different way to wear a ponytail. Kind of reminds me of those butterfly clips that were SO popular. Just another way to do something you already do!
-
@NaturallyCathy: If you had thick/curly hair, these things are a life saver! They give a much better looking pony than if you use an elastic.
ETA: Added a picture of curly hair in a banana clip
-
@NaturallyCathy: Here's a pretty cute use of it
-
@NaturallyCathy: girlfriend, how young ARE you??
-
haha! I forgot about these!
-
@mediagirl: Lol. Um, 24 as of April 16th. So I was just an elementary school kid for most of the 90s.
@swurlygurl: @raspberries: In other words my baby-fine textured hair, no matter how thick and heavy it may feel, wouldn't last ten seconds in it. Probably why I don't know about it!
Thanks for the references.
-
@NaturallyCathy: Yeah, probably not so great for thin hair. This was one hair trend I was actually able to participate in, hah
-
Yes! I have really thick hair and I would wear it really high and my mom said I looked like a horse (in a nice way) with a flowing mane.
-
Yes! With a home perm!
I was 12, my mom did it, hahaha -
oh yes!!
-
I was not cool enough for a banana clip!
-
Omg, I had so many banana clips, lol.
-
I think I had more scrunchies!
-
Oh yes! Loved the banana clip!
-
This totally never worked with my hair type. However , I do have a coworker who still wears one to work occasionally. She also wears really dated and glittery nail polish styles.
-
Haha. Totally!
-
Banana clips!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Banana clips! I tried to wear them, but my hair was too thin and slippery so they never worked on me.
-
My hair was never long or thick enough. I was jealous of all you banana clip wearers!
-
LOL! omg yes.
