Revlon Extra Long Black Hair Elastics, 16 Count
Strong Hold for Thick Hair
Many customers praise these Revlon hair elastics for their ability to securely hold thick, long hair. Users report that the elastics keep their ponytails high and in place throughout the day, even during physical activities. The extra-long design allows for multiple wraps, providing a tight hold without causing excessive tension or discomfort on the scalp.
Gentle on Hair
Despite their strong hold, these elastics are generally gentle on hair. Customers appreciate that they don't cause excessive breakage or pull out hair when removed. The smooth texture of the elastics helps minimize friction and damage to hair strands. Many users find them to be a good balance between secure hold and hair protection.
Versatile for Various Hairstyles
Reviewers note that these elastics are suitable for a variety of hairstyles beyond simple ponytails. They work well for securing braids, buns, and other updos. The extra length of the elastics makes them particularly useful for those with thick hair or protective styles like box braids, allowing for easy styling and secure hold without needing multiple elastics.
Durability and Value
Customers frequently mention the durability of these Revlon elastics. Many report that they maintain their elasticity and strength even after multiple uses, lasting longer than other brands they've tried. The 16-count package is seen as good value for money, especially given the longevity of each elastic. Some users do note that the elastics can stretch out over time, but this is generally after extended use.
Size Considerations
While the extra-long design is a plus for many, some users with fine or shorter hair find these elastics to be too large. A few customers mention needing to double-wrap the elastics for a secure hold on thinner hair. However, this size is particularly appreciated by those with thick, long, or textured hair who often struggle to find elastics that can accommodate their hair volume.
