Throw Your Hair Ties in the Garbage???
You read that right!
Whether you’re heading to the gym or to work, reaching out for an elastic hair tie seem to be the quickest way to tame our hair and keep it out of our faces. In fact, this has become so routine that it's a habit for most of us. You may think hair ties are completely harmless, but they actually cause a lot of damage to your hair.
Have you noticed how much hair is on your elastic every time you undo your ponytail? For some, the pain and struggle of removing their hair tie is real! There are many good reasons to stop using traditional hair ties and protect your hair, but giving them up entirely has never been a realistic option. That's where PONY-O bendable hair ties come in! It's a unique, groundbreaking hair accessory that won't harm or tug at your hair!
Are Traditional Hair Ties Really Bad for Your Hair and Health?
The answer is a resounding "Yes"! Although hair ties may appear to be the easiest and most convenient option for a quick and reliable hairstyle, they consistently tug on your hair and its follicles, resulting in breakage—especially for those with fine hair. Feeding your hair back and forth through an elastic until it's super tight, creates dents and creases in every hair type, especially in wet hair. As the elastic tightens around your ponytail, the damage is unavoidable.
While it may not be common knowledge, there is a condition associated with tight ponytails called an “extracranial headache”. Constant, excessive pulling and tugging of the hair triggers the nerves underneath our hair follicles which then results in the development of headaches, aka "the ponytail headache". And the number one culprit: very tight ponytails.
According to the National Institute of Health, 50 of 93 females questioned in a study experienced headaches from wearing a ponytail, and the pain was experienced at the site of the hair tie. The headache was determined to be preventable by wearing the ponytail more loosely tied.
Another condition resulting from overly tight ponytails is "tension alopecia" or "traction alopecia". Wearing your ponytail so tight for a prolonged period of time, in an elastic, literally can pull your hair from its follicle.
Why torture your hair with archaic elastics and hair gadgets? The risk of permanent hair damage and headaches just isn't worth it! The Pony-O is different from any other hair accessory on the market.

What more can you ask for a than hair accessory that allows you wear a ponytail with no damage at all?

PONY-O bendable hair ties won't crease your hair and causes zero damage or breakage, because you only feed your hair through and shape it. Since you customize the PONY-O to fit your hair, it will keep both fine and thick hair in place throughout the day.

Waterproof & Sweatproof
PONY-O is covered in a gentle silicone coating that's not only incredibly comfortable, but also waterproof and resistant to sweat. It stands up to chlorine and salt water, so when you're taking a dip in the ocean, it won't be affected. PONY-O hair accessories holds well in wet hair, but it's also easy to remove: open the PONY-O back into its circle shape, and it slides right out! No hair comes with it!
Designed to Provide Extreme Comfort
One distinct difference between the PONY-O and a hair elastic is the way you put it in your hair.
- Using your thumb and forefinger only, pull your hair through the PONY-O.
- Holding it close to your head, flatten and squeeze the PONY-O.
- Using your thumbs, bend the ends down SEPARATELY to secure your ponytail. DO NOT BEND THE PONY-O ONCE IN THE MIDDLE. If you want a tighter hold, bend the ends a little more.
TIP: For a more secure hold, bend the ends a little more. If you pull on your ponytail to tighten it, that will open and loosen the PONY-O.
Super easy! Super comfortable! Super secure! No tugging or pulling.
